HELP WANTED! Damsel in Lingo Distress!! | January 19th 2005

Sou thought out loud in Blog, Friends, Fun, Personal, Crazy, Books

*27 diconnections, 17 switch offs and 2 restarts is how long it took to finally post this entry!!! My laptop gave me the worst time EVER!! I was going to throw it out the window–no really, I WAS!!! But then i realised, if i threw this laptop out the window, my parents wouldn’t get me a new one–so does anyone have a laptop they want to give away?! ;p Anyways, here it goes, Enjoy!*

Français, yes French! I don’t speak it fluently, but i do know a couple of ‘phrases’! I was watching TV5 yesterday, and in a whole sentence i understood about 2 words!! I used to be in the TOP French set–yes, yours truly! lol :p Of course, i was in the top french set, with the lowest grades–come to think of it, i was doing fine in the ‘B’ set, i dunno why they moved me to ‘A’—hmm, maybe studying had something to do with it, makes you think!! Well, i can’t really go baq 7 years and change my studying habits!! *sigh* O well…so baq to the Français bit. My Mother and Grandparents speak French fluently and my dad speaks Italian!! Now can somebody please tell me why i can’t speak any other languages other than Arabic & English?!! *sigh* Now if only i studied (ok, not the right time for regrets!) You know what, i’m going to learn how to speak French! Oui! and if anybody out there can speak French, well i’m a Damsel in Lingo Distress!!! Sil vous plait ‘ELP ME!!! (yes, i mean “ELP” because, in French, the “H” is silent! and it’s a vowel, right?!)

Learn Italian French

Hehehe, well it’s time to sign off, ta ta for now :*

Maxi becoup for recommending my blog on your “must reads” list. I took Elementary French when I was 18 years old and I hope that I have said thank you very much in French correctly.

I remember having quite a lot of fun in the class but not much of what I learned there except that everything has a gender la, le…ugh now I remember why I did not proceed further. My daughter is learning Japanese and she is really interested so her progress is very good. So happy practising! Au revoir!

so, u’r going about french.. hmm. wise move!
apprendre un langue comme ça va être tres utile pour toi!

key word: useful.

it might not look appealing as you can’t use it much except in french-speaking countries. but, well, u’ll get to be called a francophone!
