Just some thoughts

So as i have ventured on through my days here in France life becomes easier and easier. I can now ask to pass the water at the dinner table without getting frustrated and having to think for a couple of minutes which i consider a huge improvement. And my accent has reached the point where people understand what i am saying and i have even mastered the skill of whispering in french which let me tell you was not easy to do.

SO besides all my new loves and obsessions France is absolutely amazing. I have come to realize there is a lot more to a french life then i thought. I mean the people here are so deep and understanding and just different then what i am used to. I am fascinated by there way of life and how they hold themselves and act with others. A few things i have noticed about the teenagers is they are an incorporation of the old and the new. i mean they "bisous" each other and introductions are very important but then they have this whole different version of french and slang and way of acting. Its very odd to me to see because in America the way you act or the things you say is mostly what you would say to adults and parents.

But here in France its like they speak a whole different language with there friends. Its a very odd thing to listen to and very difficult to pick up. But i know in time i will learn. I mean i need to cut myself some slack these kids have been speaking french for 16/17 years i have been speaking English all that time. you would be amazed at how much logic and reasoning has to do with this process, i mean in English something might be logical to me but not to them and the other way around. It all makes sense in some way or another.
