When I was in high school, we had to take a language. They said "take spanish, it's inevitability going to be the language here in the states."

So that's why I took french, because fuck you immigrants, learn my language in my country.

You really choose french over spanish?

spanish is so fucking easy compared to french where 2/3 of all letter are silent.

Yup. I didn't really find it that hard, although I'm much better at translating it than I am speaking it. Plus, everyone took spanish so it was like 30 people to a class, whereas with french there were 12 of us so we actually got to learn something other than "read the book, recite the words, you now speak gardener"

Most of my school took spanish. There was only one French class, and I had to fight the school to let me in it, even though we had a choice and I was free to pick French. We were on the border with Canada, we even had a French TV station. Yet they pushed spanish on us, and my teacher for the spanish class wouldn't let me go to the office and try and get it fixed, so I eventually just walked out.
