The first bit is a mystery to me but I'll give it a stab:
Pour quoi tu es si loin?--Why are you so far away? |

Could it be from a nice French girl who's missing Our Lad Doggyji?  |

Yes, it would be "pourquoi tu es loin?" Why are you so far away. It reminds me of a bad Rod Stewart song. |

I've seen it online before. It's 'Pourquoi t'es si loin?'.
I doubt it came to you in a dream. So, why are you testing us? |

Well, I'm not testing anyone. Of course, that dream thing was a joke! It was some kind of quiz for me from a French person and I had to answer. Yeah, I started learning French a while ago but I'm not as motivated as before. The honking R sound is letting me down.  |

| If you add a little roll to those "R"s they'll think you're from Montreal |

Off-topic, but apparently a few nights ago I said "나 때문에 경고문이 생겼다" while sleeping, and a week before that it was "one hundred and twenty-nine". What is my brain trying to tell me? |

Do you live in Seoul? I don't mind a French practice session. My French is half-way decent. We are having a French Canadian and Quebec gathering in April. We'll speak French half of the time, maybe. If anyone is interested send me a PM. It would be around the second week of April. By the way, do you guys know Cirque Du Soleil is coming to town? |

That's such a sweet offer  but I live in Ontario, Canada.  Maybe I'll have to dig meetup.com... Thank you anyway.  |
