I dedicate this post to Sutton and Aditi.
Today was marked by me falling asleep in class for a few minutes, and more importantly talking for five minutes straight to 32 people about how much I like breakfast using slang words. I frickin' kiffe le pet't dej y'all connait?
Exactly like that. But cooler.
Awkward incident today where I became friends with an awesome Colombian girl... Following happened.
Friend: So she's a colombian, and my brother was like, you know they probably have tons of coffee.
Colombian: Yes, it's true.
Friend: And he was said they'd probably offer you cocaine.
Colombian: Hey, you want some? (long pause) It's a joke...
Two of my other Colombian friends (I have a lot of colombian friends here) were giving me a tutorial on how to roll my r's. I roll them like Shakirrrra. Needless to say, after French, Spanish won't be too hard. Apparently in Espangolophone (yes I made that up) countries, if you can't roll your r's, it's like having a lisp in English. They have professionals to correct this. It's a major problem if you can't roll your r's in spanish. How are people supposed to know if it is two r's or one???
I also learned how to say "Move it dickhead" in Italian and "I have a cold" in German. Equally useful, one presumes.
Random sighting of the day: Girl throwing up on a building in the centre-ville and then calmly taking the tram. Gutsy? Or just a regular 5 pm habit? Do I want to know?
It's nearly 1 am now... Time to stop listening to MIKA's only French song (it's a big deal guys) and hit the hay.
YAY!!! I LOVE YOU :D
ReplyDeletealso, what is this song of MIKA's that is in French?! i wants.
POURQUOI TU GACHES TA VIE
ReplyDeleteAditi, it's "Elle me dit" and it's the catchiest song ever. You'll like the music video :)
