My name is Carter and I’m 15 years old. :D

I was born on August 13th , 1993 , on a Friday in Virginia Beach , Virginia.

But when my parents divorced when I was three , my mom took my older siblings and myself to North Charleston , South Carolina where I was raised by her and our grandparents.

I’m Black , Puerto Rican , and Choctaw.

But I don’t know any of the languages that come with them.

I’m sad that I really didn’t get a chance to learn Spanish from my own dad but I did learn later on in life , of course I could use a refresher , but that’s not the reason I joined! >_<

You see I just moved to Caribou , Maine and almost everyone at my highschool knows French! 0_0

(We’re pretty close to Canada so I guess that’s why. >>; )

I feel kind of left out , not many of my friends think I can do it since they grew up learning language , but I want to prove them wrong!

I’m going to need some help though , that’s why I joined eduFire. =)

I’m a quarter of an inch away from from being 4ft. 10in. ;_;

So yes I am LEGALLY a midget. >_<

My hobbies are singing , writing poetry , drawing , reading and OH MY GOD: STUDYING! <——-(Yes I am a geek.)

Hey Carter. Welcome to eduFire! I hope you love it here. :)

Hi Carter.. nice to meet you! Enjoy eduFire. =)

Great introduction Carter :) You are at the right place! If you need any help with anything then let me know!

Hi Carter, welcome to edufire!

Hello there Carter!

You’ll learn and like it here at edufire…

Hey Carter – Welcome to our wonderful community – make yourself at home!

I can’t wait to hear what your friends have to say when you start speaking to them in French! Go Carter!

Surprise them all Carter!

Welcome and enjoy yourself here. Don’t forget the flashcards too!

Welcome Carter! Good Luck!

Welcome to eduFire Carter. Here you will certainly fit in as we are all different, and here to learn!

Carter, that may be one of the best introductions I’ve seen yet!

First, I understand about Maine — I’m from New Hampshire and my mom lived in Maine when she was young. My mom is also 4’9" — so she’s technically a midget :o).

I was never taught the language my father speaks (Greek) so I know how disappointing that is. I’m determined to teach, if I have any children, as many languages as I can haha!

Again, welcome and if you have any questions — we’re all here for you!

Welcome to eduFire, Carter!!! :) You’ve come to the best place for learning French! Check out he Flash Cards, the educational videos and of course our wonderful French tutors! :)

I can relate to the what you’re saying – my grandmother and her sister were both fluent in (spoken) Hungarian, but I didn’t get to learn it from them… And no, I still don’t speak Hungarian, I never learned it from anyone else after they died… :(

Back to you – I really hope you will enjoy the site! And come talk to us in the community forums! :)
