Sad, but true. The main problem is that we have no one to practice with. And unless you are exposed regularly to a different language, you will forget it (or revert to a horrible accent). If I had taken Spanish, I could watch soccer, game shows, and novellas on Telemundo to stay sharp. I still watch, but I just can't understand a word that's being said. Adds to the fun, really.
