Fluent?

   At dinner today, my host family and I were talking about a play my host mom, Fabienne, is writing. It will be performed during the summer and it will be in English so that the English tourists can understand. She said that it was hard to find people who know enough English to be able to do the improvisation involved in the play and that it'll be hard to answer the questions the tourists have. I said that I can probably help because I'll be bilingual by then. Fabienne responded by saying that I ALREADY AM BILINGUAL. This is such a huge accomplishment for me on my study abroad journey. I can't believe that an actual French person thinks that I'm bilingual. A lot of exchange students said that it only took them three months to become fluent in their host language. I don't know what exactly defines being fluent but apparently I am? YES, Life made :)
