Finally, 25 minutes pass, and the door clicks open. We both like, freaked out. Jumped, screamed, shout. I called myself a gangster at least four times. "I AM A GOD DAMNED GANGSTER!" Yadda yadda.
Damn, you should've filmed yourself shouting "I AM A GOD DAMNED GANSTER!" :D

The army could use you. Send you into what appears to be an empty building, if you suddenly appear, it means people are around. Genius !
Now my 'impressive skill' is that I'm a pure bilingual. "Stop inventing words, SERIOUSLY", you all shout at your screens.
Well you get bilingual people ; those who speak two languages to a more or less fluent extent. People's reckoning of what is fluent or not varies, which is why some put a word before "bilingual" in order to differentiate between the various levels.
When I use the term "pure bilingual", I mean that no-one I've ever met in English has guessed that I'm French, and vice-versa.
I can go around the UK, speaking like a Brit and acting like a Brit. For all intents and purposes, I'm 100% culturally British when I'm around other anglophones. Other than my sister, I've only ever met one other similar person, everyone else has had an accent or certain mannerisms that betray their original nationality.
It may not seem like much, but it's pretty damn cool. Also, and it's sad to say, people often treat you differently when they don't think you're foreign. Even if they do it without realising, you can always feel that tiny little change when you tell them you come from abroad.
If I make a video (which may be sooner than you think *suspense*), you'll see what I mean.
