Faire Foutre

Ok, first of all, LOOK at this creeper who friend requested me on facebook!!


Wow ok, I'm scared. Sorry, I just had to share that.
Sorry I didn't write sooner like I said I would. I just had a horrible week. It was long and horrible and I totally just sat down and cried several times. And I don't really feel like going into it, its not so important. But I'm not feeling so happy right now :/

Nimes was amazingly fun!!! I spent a while in Nimes (and Marsaille), but the reunion was actually in a little village near Nimes called Soumieres(or something like that, I don't know how its spelled). Thankfully I didn't get lost or molested. I met a girl my age at the train station going to the same place and so we stressed about switching trains together and at last found the train together too, so it wasn't so bad. When I got to the reunion I immediatly made friends with everybody, they were all really super nice. There was Agnes from Sweden, Latay from Venezuala, Maria from Estonia, David from Mexico, and two french girls who had just came back from America named Sofia and Pauline. And also my new personne relaise, Laura, was there and I really liked her too.

I have to add something to my travel survival tips: "Aller vous faire foutre!" is a nice little expression that means "go to hell" only, its worse than saying that(Aller vous en l'enfer) and it is very useful for creepy men who woln't leave you alone =]

Ok, sorry I haven't answered any questions. Do I consider myself fluent? Not exactly but I'm nearly there. I know enough to express myself, I understand very well what people say, and I have enough vocabulary to talk about pretty much anything. My only problems are books and movies. Spoken french is practically another language than written french so reading books is difficult. But its my goal to be able to read the books that I like in french by the time my year is finished! And with movies, they just speak really fast, but I watch stuff in french almost every day so I'm sure it will come soon. I downloaded the first season of Gossip Girl in french to my laptop, and I also have podcasts in french.
