a question about language learning

i am learning russian as a native english speaker, with my dream to speak many languages because i think it gives me purpose. but i’m not sure how to stop associating the foreign words with english instead of the actual thing? idk how to explain that well but as to learn like a baby - you know the object and you bring to associate the name to it. i have tried writing sticky notes to the object but they just fall and don’t seem to help me. does anyone have suggestions?

Looking for Russian friends!

Hi! I am learning Russian and I would really like to have friends I can practice with and talk to, I love animals and music artists like Sade, Daniel Caesar, Clairo and Mac Demarco. I love ear piercings and crochet. My Grandfather was from Russia and never taught my father the language, but I really want to learn it to reconnect with my roots. I‘m 16F from Aus, hoping for preferably a female friend! Hope someone can relate!!

help

hi, so i’ve been talking to this guy for ages and we met up a few weeks ago and he took me to his place, we kissed for a bit and he really wanted to have s*x (idk if i have to blur that out) and i said okay even though i really didn’t want to (i was a virgin) and he didn’t have any condoms or pull out and now i’ve missed my period for two weeks and i took a test. it was positive. 

 - for context i’m fourteen, this man told me he was fifteen but he’s actually seventeen and idk what to do now, im not close at all with my parents
