Bonjour!
Comment allez-vous? Je vais tres bien, merci! Comment vouz appelez- vous? Je m'appelle Christie.
Well, if you hadn't guessed it yet, I have been busy learning French. At the beginning of May, the State Dept let me know that I would be able to take their 8-week FAST French program. The catch is that since it is the same training that full time employees take, then the training + lab time is 40 hours a week. I have kicked myself for years for not learning a language back when I was younger and my brain was in much better shape to learn to speak anything except English. So, I am super excited at this awesome opportunity, but am juggling trying to make sure everything continues to get done. My apologies for not keeping up with our goings-on, but I have been immersed in French, moving, end of school year activities and just regular life. 2 more weeks of French! When I am finished, I promise to post pictures of our soon to be new house in Dakar and some of the more interesting stuff we've been up to this past month!
Bonne weekend! A tout a l'heure!

That's awesome you get to learn French still! I think it is a beautiful language.
ReplyDeleteIt is beautiful, even if they insist on populating their words with letters they don't say. I am having fun :)
