D_Marx 604 Report post Posted May 12, 2007 There's this five-week intensive French study I'm attending right now at Laval University and I'm having a blast. My French is improving but my friends like speaking in English. I can see how it's tiring to try to speak it every day, but I need a reminder of what I'm doing in the long run. I've told them this but they brush it off. I'm the only Nebraskan, there're people from Chicago, New Orleans, Alaska, Missouri, and a couple others, but the rest are residents of Canada. I didn't get my main luggage for three days. Air Canada is paying for $100 of my stuff that I send a receipt for. I've got internet in my room finally, which is a big relief because I have people I want to talk to, and I even started writing again!! at the discotheque. with alcohol in my system. It's not bad, to tell the truth, will post some when I finish the idea. [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC] D_Marx Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Mathias 426 Report post Posted May 12, 2007 Parlais vous Francais? Mais non. J'adore du fromage. I can speak a little more, but that's stretching my limits, sorry. I bow to your excellence in speaking languages. Understand this lad, fate is a fickle lady. Work with the hand you're dealt and you may just be able to run your flag up the pole. Don't, and well, you may just find your mast cut down. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

COBRA 378 Report post Posted May 16, 2007 Hooray, sounds like loads of fun, and educational! wonder if your writing is helped by the alcohol any. seemed things like that(and worse!) helped Edgar Allen Poe, and he was da bomb!

D_Marx 604 Report post Posted May 23, 2007 Je pense le langue français est très beau. It's stressful up here, that's for damn sure. I've been trying to mellow out, but all I want to do is sit down outside and do nothing one morning. I wake up, have class at 8:30a.m., exit class at 12:30 and end up taking a nap from exhaustion. The jet lag might actually be wearing off finally. I've been fighting that since I got here. I'm starting to listen to the language naturally, and slowly transforming my language to suit them. I still get nervous around teachers, though Marie-Andrèe is making things really easy. I failed my second vocab test--she keeps on trying to make me listen to a description and make a word out of what she says, and everyone else does a great job. I just can't seem to do it. Oh well, it's a vocab quiz. I know most of the words, and that I tried is something. [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC] D_Marx Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
