I have sent you my e-mail address. If you want to write me there, I could view the messages immediately. It would be easier than on the Vocabulix forum, as I'm not online often enough.
So you want to know what I'm doing? I am 22 years old and I am studying medicine at the university in Atlanta. I want to learn German because I have a German girlfriend. We want to get married.
