My favourite tune
Listen to the beginning of "Save me" by Corrinne May. That's my favourite tune. I finally concluded that that was it. It transcends everything - the whole myriad of emotions that one can possibly feel and you know, it's apt at all times :) It's beautiful. It really is.
The most exciting thing that happened today? My silly French oral. As in I haven't really figured out why they want us to take an oral exam, honestly. A possible reason could be that they want to make a fool outta us. All these kids, haven't spoken a word of French for their whole lives and they want us to hold a conversation with the right accents and all those other intonations in French. It's insane. at the same time, it was hilarious. Because Rhea and I were just screaming at each other when we walked out of the room and she said that I looked like a baboon's ass. (NOT!) My french oral went something like this:
Tutor: blah, blah, blah... (see i can't even remember what she said!)
Me: Je...ah...pardon...ah....pardon...Repetez sil vous plait?
Tutor: blah, blah, blah..
Me: Ah oui...ah, ah, ah.....Je.....pardon.. (what the heck right?!)
Tutor: Blah, blah, blah...
Me: Er...une lapine...manger( it's supposed to be mange!!!) du ice cream
(it's suppose to be du glass!!!)
so basically, the whole oral went something along those lines. I think I made my 3 french words that made no sense in English and even no more sense in French. Bother.
I just hope I pass. This french oral. Maybe really, our brains aren't wired to learn a new language after that critical period. I'm just a statistic to that hypothesis now.
