i did, i still read nyt-guardian n follow bbc n shit,
but the meme-nigga in me does not care about formal language,
i can say, he translates these to slang in microseconds, and what i remember from those parts after reading, comes as slang-shit, always..

BTW, i saw hundreds of people here who claim they rock at english but actually suck at it,
finally, it is good to know someone like you

i am, a language-literature undergraduate too, what 'bout ya'
