Me and a friend are learning russian, well actually I'm learning it and then teaching to her what i just learnt.. but anyway...
Where should we start coz i wouldn't have a clue we know the cyrillic alphabet and have a vocab of like 50 or so words (Mostly Nouns)from bit and pieces everywhere and numbers 1 to 10
where should we go from here

What I would do is learn the present tense conjugation. It's a bit tough, but if you hack it, you'll be able to make sentences, and it'll go easier from that point.
Well you could do worse than to buy some books and tapes in/on Russian.
Forget what you have learnt and start from the beginning. If you find you are enjoying what you are learning then find a class or tutor willing to help you learn more.
There are plenty of links on the net that can help you find the all things Russian via google.
on-line translator engines are very useful too, at least i think so. If you want some links let me know, ok? :)
i am just like you i am learning russian and my friend mooches off my knowledge i just know way less than you. the one scentance i can say is "I LOVE ..." I can write perfect cryllic in print and cursive and she sucks
Last year, I went to England (I live in California) and on the plane I met this hot 14 year old Russian and I gave her my e-mail address after I got to know her. Now she wants me to learn Russian. I had started to learn it when I was five or six but hey, I'm American, I'm LAZY!!!. I didn't finish it so here I am. Tah Dah.
:!: Please help me learn!!! :!:

Why were you learning it when you were five or six? Are your parents Russian? Anyhow if you want to learn it, you will simply have to put a lot of effort into it. There is no other way to do that. Get a book(Jas' stands by the Penguin Russian courses as the true Word of God :wink:), listen to some Russian radio, etc., etc. , etc.
... My parents wanted me to learn a language that most people don't know fluently.
Russian is spoken by 250 million people... More than German...
Are your parents polyglots or people like us, who basically are obsessed with languages not learned that often? That's a pretty strange demand of a 5-year old...but a good one, if I ever saw one! :D
... are crazy, that's all.
