The foreign language public education in the US is ptretty much nonexistent, which sucks, one of the reasons being that almost all universities require at least a year of foreign language, and if you want to get a Masters, they require "evidence of ability to make scholarly use of at least one other language".
WTF? Why don't they teach us this from KINDERGARTEN?! Why don't they start offering foreign language in public education until high school? Being a 21 year old college student, I can certify that it is difficult as hell to learn all the little nuances of a foreign language; had I learned Spanish when I was five, I doubt I'd be making notecards and spending ten hours a week at it.
And I can read/write it better than I speak it too.
Yo trataba de hablar con petimetres españoles en el autobús, pero suena como el discurso de un bebé porque yo no puedo utilizar las palabras rápidamente. Yo estudiaba el español por sólo un año. ¿Sabes que es muy difícil de sintetizar un idioma nuevo cuando
se fuma la mota, verdad? Yo iba a ir a México para estudiar más, pero hace algunos meses decidí no tengo el dinero ni el tiempo.

Reap your life like you want to recognise all you have come to!
When I stamp it on your forehead
So you will never forget that you're a reject,
And you're no one little impotent one!
