Trip to the Alps!

Yup, that's right. I take the train to Annecy tomorrow afternoon (Vendredi) and am coming back to Paris Mecredi nuit. Buhahahaha.

What about my French classes? Hmm, conjugate verbs or ski in the alps...
Actually today was a pretty good day in class. We went over possessing objects and imparatifs (how to order/tell someone to do something). My teacher is different this week because our other one is on holiday. This guy is pretty funny. To practice imparatif (imparative) tenses, he had us get in groups and come up with things that annoy people. Some of the examples people came up with were hilarious. Like the guy from Russia, Tigram, said, "chante dans la salle de bains" (sing in the bathroom). Mine was prends ses affaires (take one's things). For mine he came over to me and tried to take something off my desk, but I protected my stuff before he could. The other American, Nichole, said being obscene. Our teacher didn't know what she meant by obscene and asked if she meant porn. Which is even funnier if you picture him saying it in a French accent. When she said no, he asked if she meant flipping someone off and made the gesture. Eventually we managed to get across that she meant impolite. There are several Koreans in my class and a couple Japanese. One guy is from Ireland, a woman from Nigeria, a woman from Finland, one from Australia and a couple others. Everyone is pretty patient with each other, because we are all struggling together. Today though, it was really great to laugh together.

This is a picture of a couple of girls in my French class in front of the Louvre. We went there to study and walk around after class the other day. The one in the red jacket is Gunna, from Iceland, who lives in my arrondesment (district) actually. The other girl is Nichole from Colorado. I haven't actually been inside the Louvre, or any other musee` for that matter, since arriving here, but I will soon.
