The way i learned to speak english

I'm just 13 but my english is on a high level (atleast I think like that...), I can talk with native american and talk pretty freely, maybe I could make some small mistakes, but overall that would be communicative conservation. Someone probably scratches his head and says to himself: "How'd he learned it?". Well, I'll answer you, here you go.
I was young (around 4...) when I've first seen english... In game (Unreal, old unreal...classic) I didn't understand much, I was asking my older brother or sister about something i didn't know, they always (well not always, sometimes they couldn't) what does this, this and this mean. I was playing alot of games, mainly in english and I was in need of someone who could translate everything. This way I learned basic words in english.
I was bit older (maybe 8) and I still needed more knowledge, "I'd like to watch english websites without anyone help!" - I said. I was very determinated and patient. When my brother or sister wasn't able to help me I used online dictionary to help me. Slowly my word bank was bigger... and bigger... (I would like to notify you that i didn't have english in grade school, I learned german and somehow I'm worse in german than in english).
Around 10 i felt confident enough and I've begun to chat with foreigners, surprisingly I could understand alot of words and they could understand ME! I really liked it and talked more and more... Ocasionally I learned grammatic and word spelling by this :3
Now I'm 13, I'm still learning and the God blessed me with this site, e-ang... I'm so happy I've found this site. With it my english will be even better and I will do what I like the most - help others.
PS. I don't remember exactly my age when I was on respective "stages" of my education so don't sue me :P
Oh and I would forgot... The most important thing in this is to belive in yourself. Faith is a strong thing that will let you do everything. You need to know that all the knowledge will come sooner or later, you must be patient. I was young and I didn't think of super fast learning of this language. And now I have a pretty big amount of words in my head.
