I've been binge watching Chuunibyou and as a result I've gotten addicted to the kawaii.

This is a cautionary tale, children. Never binge watch good anime.

3 Filipino dialects + the national language, Malay/Indonesian (same language, really), Hindi, Tamil, Mandarin Chinese, Hokkien Chinese, English, decent Spanish, and a sprinkle of Korean and Japanese. :p

EDIT: Forgot Lojban. ;)


Smart girl. I'm impressed.

Oreimo gave me diabeetus.

Chuunibyou has brilliant animation, too. I've spent several moments watching frame after frame. I was that impressed.

Hopefully you and your family have been riding out the storm and haven't really experienced anything unpleasant? Some of the stories I hear of Copts being persecuted there are brutal.

My family has more than some Copts; because my father is a priest. Before I was born my uncle was accused of "hiding a Muslim man who had converted to Christianity" and was placed in prison, my father himself has had things thrown at him; and our church has been damaged many times.

But, God tests those who are most faithful to him.
