Mozart's birthday is the day after Ellen DeGeneres' birthday. Shut up, it's funny. XD;;
Twice in the past week I have been asked if I was in French immersion, which is interesting because I so totally wasn't. Someone in my Japanese class is completely impressed that in my French lit. we're going to read a novel. I'm just like, man, how long have I been studying French again? Please don't be deceived by any French language ability I may appear to have, as I am really not as smart as you think! x_x;;;
Although I did get 21/20 on last week's test, wahahaha. Only because I bugged the teacher about it. Being annoying pays off? And yesterday in my lit. class the prof was all "What's the word that we can use to contrast Mme. Aubain's grief with Félicité's?" and I was like, "Désespoir!" and he was all "Exactly!" hahaha.* And I talked a bunch in the lab today without sounding too stupid, I think. Although I did hit my stupidity quotient for the day in the actual class, oh yes. But then the prof gave us all sucre à la crème, which is basically my favourite food in the entire universe, so even though I was most definitely never in French immersion, I am very happy with my French classes right now. XD
(My mother thinks I am making too big a deal out of the immersion questions. Hmmmm ... probably. XD; )
* We are reading Flaubert's short story «Un Coeur Simple» (hahaha, look what fancy code I learned to make the guillemets!) and I honestly adore it, which is nice, because all through Balzac's «Facino Cane» I wanted to punch someone.
Narrator: I'm a creepy stalker.
Facino Cane: Let me tell you of my WACKY ADVENTURES.
[Facino Cane tells of his WACKY ADVENTURES.]
Facino Cane: Help me find my treasure and you'll be rich.
Narrator: Okay.
[Facino Cane DIES.]
Narrator: Darn it.
Ah, yes. It is surely a good thing I am not a lit. major of any sort. XD;;;;;;;
