Je Parle un peu Francais


That's "I speak some French", so I'm taking French lessons. I'm still not over the fact that Uni is over and classes and tests are done with and no more gossip with college classmates. So I took this class. Actually another reason would be so I can easedrop on those whom conveniently switch to French (because most everybody here is bilingual) when they don't want to be understood. So being trilingual is a way to stand out. (Lagafah, i know) I might benefit from it one day, its not too far from English. Its just that the reading is totally weird. Half the word isn't even mentioned. The French teacher is nice. She doesn't know English so she translates French to Arabic and sometimes I translate the Arabic words to English so its a lot easier to learn. I didn't realize how much I was a introvert till I took this class, I haven't casualy chitchatted with any of my classmates until the 3rd week...What the hell is wrong with me?
Ever since my french classes, I just started to notice that we are surounded with so many french things. Its like a French invasion here. Some example: Geant, Le mall, Carrfoure, euro marche the lauging cow :P, and the word Nouveau on some candy products which means New and some other things I can't remember.
