My first iPod post

So I'm sitting on the couch while my mom is watching a TV program on our French TV transmitter on people learning a new language immersed in this language (a french family in china) and it's making me think about my bilinguality (give me the proper word) and I found I often think about how in Ireland I speak this perfect no mistakes french for everybody but the moment I go to France I speak horrible French in an English accent or "un accent anglais" also, in Ireland,I'm almost chauvinistic to France but in France I'm almost chauvinistic to Ireland! I guess it's because in Ireland everyone calls me "Frenchy" while in France I'm "le petit irlandais" (the irish guy). So I think it's up to the people around me to chose who I am and how I feel. And it's probably the same with you!
