One of my friends got her N ("novice" driver's license) after I think three or four failed attempts, so that's awesome, but to be horribly honest my favourite part about it was the conversation I had about it with someone else that went something like this:

Me: Did you hear? K-- got her N!
Her: Oh? That's ... good. [pause] I'm scared now.

XDXD;;;

Also yesterday I walked to school with betaraider, which I wrote about in great detail before the entry was eaten for unknown reasons. XD;; It was awesome anyway.

This morning one of my classmates ran into our Japanese class crying, "There's a Japanese TV station here and they want to film our class!" I don't think anyone believed her at first, she is a little crazy. But it turned out to be true and so I may on TV in Victoria's sister city, Morioka. (That link goes to the "sister city" page on Morioka's web site. I have just now visited Victoria's web site for the first time and am ashamed to find that it pretty darn ugly and the menu is pretty darn useless, but nevertheless here is the "sister city" page on Victoria's web site. Victoria has three sister cities??? That strikes me as kind of greedy! Victoria-Morioka.com??? Hahaha how cute!) Anyway, apparently they are putting together something about this Dr. Nitobe fellow, and they wanted to film something to link the two cities together, and they thought, why not a Japanese class? So there you have it I guess. They filmed a lot so perhaps I will be cut out, but anyway they did film me asking a question about whether it was ~に住む or ~で住む and asking the prof why she corrected us Wednesday when my group used the first one ("It was on our overhead," I said, drawing a rectangle with my fingers, awsm), and afterwards those of us who didn't have a class went outside and did a joke-y sort of interview in which I said the deeply intelligent「日本に行ったことがありませんが、日本語が大好き。。。です。」So actually if they cut me out I don't blame them, but it's all good. XDXDXD I am an international celebrity yah! XDXDXD!!!

In French lit. we are studying Duras' L'Eden Cinéma which to me seems to be nothing more than this:

Suzanne: This happened. Then this happened. Then this happened. Then this happened.
Mr Jo: I'M CRAZY 4 U MARRY ME!!!!1!1one!!!
Suzanne: No. Then this happened. Then this happened. Obviously I am not Marguerite Duras, because my name is Suzanne.
Audience: Tell us another one.

My poor prof, today I had a question and he seemed all happy and expectant like I was just about to say the deepest thing ever said about this darling play. Little did he know I only wanted to know the age of dear Mr Jo! Wahahaha! Thwarted!!

Also I phrased my question like this: "Quel âge a ... Mr Jo ... dans l'histoire ?" As you can see, I am big on dramatic pauses. AWESOME!
