Russian is impossible to learn!

Ya nalichie velikiy zatrudnenie uchenie Russkiy.

I have no clue what I'm doing. Russian is SOOOO difficult to learn. Bought a book today, it's for "beginners" (that's me) so I figured I'd give it a whirl. I gotta tell ya, being that it's a phonetic language makes it so damn difficult. And the hard and soft signs! AHHH!!! And the handwriting makes the Ts look like Ms. WHY?!?!? LOL!! Can an Americans speech pass as authentic in Russian if they're fluent? Does anyone have any tips. I'm pretty good in French, Latin (of course you don't speak it) but this is my first encounter with the Cyrillic alphabet. The two 3 looking letters screw me up too. One's an E sound like "let" and the other is Z. My head hurts with so much to learn

EDIT: I tried writing it in Russian, but it printed all wierd... How can you use the cyrillic alphabet in this forum?
