Correct! My Christmas is coming a little late this yearWhat date is it launching in stores again BV? You must be excited for your goodies to arrive. I certainly aim!! Can’t wait to see your unboxing! Will be like a late Christmas!
. I believe pre-launch is 14th and official launch 21st. I'll be conspicuously clutching a few orange bags when I leave the store 
.
Wow! Well, I'd say it's worth the wait for this beauty
. I'm sure it's been crafted as we speak.
Thats because in Europe most people speak more then 1 language nowadays. I speak 3 languages fluent and 2 more on a basic conversation level. We are all learning English in school which isn’t enough but thanks to the international contact through forums / Games / work it’s easy to learn English fluentThanks gals! You make me feel better. I didn't know people waited so long for bags.
I have another question that has nothing to do with bags. Don't laugh at me. How are people in Europe so fluent in English? You guys write in perfect English. I would only expect that from people in England of course.
Wow! That bag is worth the wait
That's so great. In America we're only required to learn English. In high school you can choose to take a second language, but it's not required. However, to get into any university you need two years of a foreign language in high school to get in. I wish they would require more languages in our school system.Thats because in Europe most people speak more then 1 language nowadays.

At least something! But the be honest the language in school isn’t enough, you can see it for example in Korea where the students do learn englisch for a long period but after that no one can still speak English mostly because it lacks practice. Without communication it’s hard to archive the fluently speaking.
Oohhhh that’s going to be a gorgeous bag! Congrats! Looking forward to your reveal!
Thanks gals! You make me feel better. I didn't know people waited so long for bags.

For me it’s quite normal to speak English too. Learned it ofcourse on school and also on the University a lot of courses are only in English. I also work in an international environment and through social media almost everything is English. I have for example much Indian colleagues who moved to the Netherlands and try to learn Dutch. The ‘annoying’ thing us Dutchies do is to automatically start talking English to anyone who doesn’t speak Dutch. So I get regularly a reminder to please talk Dutch so they can learn it tooI'm not sure if you've been to the US, but everyone here just speaks English. Unless they're from another country or speak another language at home, mostly English is spoken. It makes picking up other languages so difficult.That’s a sweet compliment!
I also had a few years of French but that was not my thing 
We need to take two years of a foreign language in high school to get into the university, so you are correct. Most people take Spanish because it's the closest to English and the easiest to learn. However, we're far from being fluent.I kind of expected in US people would also learn to speak Spanish, but that’s not the case I understand. That’s unfortunate! In the Netherlands you have to pick a at least one extra foreign language besides English in High school. So I also do quite well in German. I can read and understand it very well, but writing is hard with all the grammar rules and I’m not that great in pronouncing the accent
I think the English are the worst at learning anyone’s language, me included, because most people are taught to speak English. Therefore it can make us a tad lazy learning another language. My bf is Italian and speaks English and Spanish fluently (self taught). My extent at Italian are a few swear words and hand gestures!
My bf is Asian and also speaks Japanese and Indonesian which I really admire.
I actually didnt notice that till you mentioned it. Im Indonesian living in Denmark for the last 13 years , fluently other than my mother tounge , English and Danish (and bit of German since we live close to the border so its very usefull since we do groceries shopping on the other side ) I learnt English since 6th grade in Indonesia but only speaks fluently when i met my DH (who is Danish) ages ago .. And home now my kids speaks fluent English since we decided to use that as our main comm at home (they of course speaks fluent Danish , and alot of German also)Thanks gals! You make me feel better. I didn't know people waited so long for bags.
