Boltageman:
shauni: why only a little spanish, my friend is from portugal, actually an immigrant, and he speaks portuguese fluently and because of that knows much of the spanish language from similarities.


That's because when you visit Spain they don't speak like you do in your classes. It's very advanced and complicated, they speak too loudly and quickly that sometimes it looks that they "eat" some words. It's very hard to understand and because they are kinda of "dummies"(for all the spanish that are out there, I'm not saying that you are, but from what I cold see, must of the people there are...), if you don't speak fluently and correctly spanish they don't understand a word, sometimes even english they get it. That's why is hard to speak to them and learn the language. I don't have spanish classes....

Boltageman: Portuguese it's not like Spanish! And in Portuguese middle schools and some high schools you don't have Spanish classes. It's not easy to talk Spanish just because they are alike. Most of the Portuguese words or terms are different in Spanish. And they're pronunciation is very awkward and different as Shauni has said.
Adeus.

How did you find YWS: Via stumble upon actually. It always seems to get me good sites.

What kind of genere of books do you write?: Anything from Sci-Fi to Fantasy to Drama, to action to humor. Just don't give me romance to write, I can never really get a realistic grip on it. I think I'm just to down to earth to. Or maybe my head is just up in the clouds all the time.

Who's you best friend on here(or mentor): I'm relatively new here, so I guess I'm just friends with everyone.

Age: 15! Everyone must remember this date and bring cake on this day - 30th January.
Why must you bring cake? 'Cause I decreed it :D

Fav book && YES ONE: You're kidding me.
Ha ha. Very funny.
A FEW of them are: Pride & Prejudice, The Mortal instruments trilogy, *goes on a year long rant*
Oh dear, that wasn't one book, was it? Then again, I was never a mathematics person ;)

Fav author: Honestly, I can't pick either. Fine, assorted writers of YWS.

Fav food: Lasagna, noodle/rice/potato/pasta based products. Fried stuff. Fast food.

Fav store: Any good bookstore.

How did you find YWS: Reliable Old Google.

What kind of genere of books do you write?: Anything really. Though my portfolio does somewhat contradict this. It seems to be rather stuffed with Romance. I assure you, its therapy. And my main focus in my stories tend to centre around humour. I love making people laugh :D
