Je Ne Suis Pas Francais
So for those not fluent or intelligent in the French language the title means, I am not French. This is brought up because I don't know much about France and yet I'm taking French this year. It kinda makes me want to study for my midterm that I have next week because there's culture on it and I don't know a damn thing about the culture. The teacher has taught me some stuff, but not much. She mostly tells us to ignore it and focus on learning the language. I don't find the language that hard, translating from French to English is pretty simple for me, but English to French is a little hard. I hope that the test is multiple choice, it'll make it easy as fuck for me to get an "A" on. But there's also the possibility of me going to France this summer. The reason I say possibility is because my dad offered to send me to France over the summer but I have other plans. I wanted to do some online courses so that I have extra credits done for school and can feed my GPA. This summer I wanted to take French II and English 10 along with World History so that next year I can leave a core class out of my schedule, take weightlifting in its place, and take French III. The World History is so that I can feed my GPA and take AP Euro or Human Geography, whatever I don't take next year, over the summer after. But if I were to go to France over the summer I wouldn't be able to do much. I'm shy you know, after I start talking to someone I can keep talking but I can't just start talking to most people, especially strangers. So going to France and spending a month or so in a foreign country that doesn't speak primarily English along with not knowing anyone there is a nightmare for me. For all I know I may end up agreeing to get anally raped by someone because of the language barrier.
