"zelfs" means "even". You could say "Zelfs ik ben teleurgesteld" ("Even I am disappointed"), but that's not what you mean here.

Ich bin nicht schnell enttäuscht, und jetzt gibt es keine Ausnahme.
I'm not easily disappointed, and currently there's no exception.

What language is that? Cherokee?

Anishinaabemowim. ^_^ Ninanda-gikendaan eyiizh inwewinan.
Ojibwe. ^_^ I'm trying to learn both languages.[The resources are a lot better for learning Ojibwe, but I can't find a word for "resource" or "dictionary", so these brackets'll have to do.]

Hier soir, le "Selwyn Snowball" s'a passé.
Last night the Selwyn Snowball happened.

J'ai devu si ivre que j'ai crié dehors de ma salle à quatre heurs de matin.
I got so drunk I was screaming outside of my room at four in the morning.

Il étais cathartique en fait.
I was quite cathartic in fact.

Latcho diwes, me krom lauter, hoi hunte krom miro artikeloge, hoi pral romaneste hi. Me tchiwom linko leske kate, te menshen kamenn te dikhell.
Heyo, I've finally done all I need to do for my Romani paper. I've put a link to it here, if people want to have a look.

(This is some (Romanian?) variety of Vlax Romani)

Najis Tuke! Našti te dikhav akana numa mangav te dikhav.
Thanks! I can't see (I mean "read" ) it now, but I want to see it.

Me nai penau gar tchatchepaha, un patchau gar, hoi well „te“ nai tchiwdo pash „-av“. „te“ well tchiwdo pash „-el“.
I can't say for sure, but I don't think "te" can be put with "-av". "te" gets put with "-el".

Šaj phenas "te dikhav." And'e Frànčija phenen "te dikhel."
We can say "te dikhav." In France, they say "te dikhel."

Let's dance "Tutti Frutti!"

Te khelas, te giljabas
Let's dance, let's sing

Le Romenca te mangas!
With the Roma if we want!

Či džanav so te kerav.
I don't know what to do.

Pàla late me merav!
I'm dying for (lit. 'behind') her!

Shukar! Awi latchi gili! Me parkrau pes pash tute, hoi kowa dal.
Lovely! What a good song! Thank you for that.

Naj soske!
You're welcome!

I marked some obvious mistakes. There are probably more.

"Selwyn Snowball"

Wygląda jak ta impreza w Hogwarcie.
Ressemble à cette fête à Poudlard.
Ziet eruit als deze fuif in Zweinstein.
Looks like that bash at Hogwarts.

Merci beaucoup.
Thank you very much.

"Selwyn Snowball"

D'accord.
Indeed.

À la plupart des collèges, il y a un "May Ball" chaque année en fin de les examens.
In most colleges there is a May Ball every year at the end of exams.

À Selwyn, le "May Ball" est biennal, donc le "Snowball" se passe annuellement pour compenser.
At Selwyn the May Ball is biennial, so the Snowball happens annually to compensate.

C'est unique à Selwyn est donc il est vraiment populaire.
It's unique to Selwyn and is therefore really popular.

Danke fur die Erklärung. Als du "Selwyn Snowball" gesagt hast, dachte ich an so etwas: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=m_A58231NFk&t=3s.
Thanks for the explanation. When you said "Selwyn Snowball", this is what it brought to mind: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=m_A58231NFk&t=3s.

Sacre bleu.
Bloody hell.

Non, il n'était pas ça sans aucun doute!
No, it was definitely not that!

Tut mir leid.
Tá sorry orm.
My bad.

Wie kann ich's bei dir wieder gutmachen?
Conas a chúitím leat é?
How can I make it up to you?

Pas de besoin, c'était trés drole!
No need, it was very funny!

As it's St. Nicholas today:
Das ist das Haus vom Nikolaus.
My goal today is not an exact translation, but one that has 8 syllables and mentions both Nick and his house:

Dom Świętego Mikołaja.
Дом Святого Николая.
C'est la maison du Nicholas.
La casa de San Nicolás.
La casa di San Nicola.
Domus Sancti Nicolai.
Dat is het huis van Sinterklaas.
Itulah rumah Nikolas.
That's the house of St. Nicholas.

Nikt nie chce rysować domu Św. Mikołaja?
Personne ne veut dessiner la maison du St. Nicholas?
Niemand wil het huis van Sinterklaas tekenen?
Nobody wants to draw the house of St. Nicholas?

Das sieht nicht so aus, als ich es vorgestellt hab. Es mangelt an Zuckergebäck.
It doesn't look like I thought it would. It's missing the gingerbread.

C'est dommage que nous ne célébrions pas le jour de Saint Nicholas en Bretagne.
It's a shame we don't celebrat St Nicholas' day in Britain.

Il semble qu'il est trés amusant, en particulier dans l'Allemagne du sud et Autriche.
It seems to be quite fun, particularly in southern Germany and Austria.

А кто ещё умирает, чтобы увидеть новый Звёздные войны? Я в пятницу пойду. Мне не нравится то, что вернулся в серию Дж. Дж. Абрамс, но ничего не поделаешь. Скорее увидим, испортил ли он ещё раз всё, дал ли нам на этот раз лучший фильм. Pas kiye digar mimirad tā Jange Setāregāne jadid rā bebinad? Man dar jom’e miravam. Xošam az ān ke Jey. Jey.

Wer brennt denn noch darauf, den neuen Krieg der Sterne zu sehen? Ich gehe am Freitag. Mir gefällt es nicht, dass J.J. Abrams zurück an der Serie ist, aber es lässt sich nicht ändern. Wir werden bald sehen, ob er alles wieder vermasselt oder uns diesmal eines bessere Film gegeben hat.
So who else is dying to see the new Star Wars? I’m going on Friday. I’m not pleased that J.J. Abrams is back on the series, but what can you do. We’ll see soon enough whether he’s screwed it all up again or given us a better film this time.

Ich habe ein Spiel auf "Zuckerbäckerstil" machen mögen.
I was trying to play off multiple meanings of "gingerbread".
