Am I making an impact?

It's small, but I'm proud of it... I feel as though I'm making some small impact on the world. My research paper, as any of you know, was about the Monolingualism of American Students. Well following, my English teacher Mr. Dee started taking Spanish classes, and the Foreign Language teachers are all asking me about Skype and my friends from overseas. It's weird to think I might be affecting other people's lives, even in this small way, but it feels good. ^^
