I haven't had time to read the thread (going to a birthday-in-family party) but I'll return later. I'll have to say that I at least learn more English on 'Downs, than my teacher can ever hope to make me comprehend. (She's not trying, but that's another story [img]smilies/rolleyes.gif[/img] ) I've also gotten a lot better at 'philosophy' (aka my native language [img]smilies/wink.gif[/img] )

Right, now I'm back. As already mentioned I learn a lot of English, (that's both 'proper' English and that 'short cut' "pees & luv 4 u 2 b a hap 1 4eva" style teenage writings) That's really interesting sometimes! [img]smilies/biggrin.gif[/img]
The philosophy-part, it may not be the right name to give it, but here I have to put my opinion clear, and say it simple, because I can't just do that 'after-explanation' when people get that really weird facial expression (right word?) because I said the opposite of what I meant and managed to make it sound as if I was babbling about something completely different. I do that in school far too often, and my teacher just look giving up-like (the dictionary doesn't know the word I'm looking for) whenever I start saying something I can't finish because I talk myself to somewhere else. That's by the way what I'm doing right now [img]smilies/rolleyes.gif[/img] - just finding back to the topic...
I don't feel like I can't get into discussions because I'm not 'smart enough'. I must admit that I read a lot more than I post, but it's usually somebody else already said what I think, and I don't want to do that "I think the same as everybody else, just want to say I'm here". Makes me feel rather stupid! [img]smilies/eek.gif[/img]
Can't think of anymore for now, but I'll probably return terribly [img]smilies/evil.gif[/img]

Btw, Lydia Ely Naïlo welcome! I'm a Dane too, we're getting quite a few [img]smilies/wink.gif[/img] Hope you have fun [img]smilies/tongue.gif[/img] (I'm not as scary as I seem!)
