same here actually man. I was 6 when we moved to the states. Up until I was 20 my Russian was horrible. But then I started (still am) dating a Russian girl who refuses to speak to me in English. So now 2 years into it, my Russian is much better, almost fluent to a degree at least, and I learned to read a little bit of it as well. Even though I read slower than a 6 year old.
Yeah i was 7.
Considering taking it for my next foreign language class.
