Dutch Lessons from Silenia!

[SIZE="3"][COLOR="Sienna"][FONT="Century Gothic"]Okay, I've starting taking Dutch lessons from my dear friend, Selly, a.ka. Silenia, owner/runner of the popular charity "At the end of the Rainbow Charity" which can be found [url=http://www.menewsha.com/forum/gaming/charity/86764-end-rainbow-charity-silly-sil-back.html][HERE][/url]. I'm not the greatest student, but I'm fair. I'm really enjoying what I've learned so far. [/FONT][/COLOR][/SIZE]
