My Very First French Flu
Yeah, I'm sick. Caught it from the little girl of the family I'm staying with. Ugh, my orientation at school is tomorrow, et quoi alors?? *sniffle*
On the bright side, yesterday I bought a cellphone. Here, all cell phone numbers start with 06, whereas home numbers start with 04. So my number is 06.xx.xx.xx.xx. Courtesy of the phone company Bouygues Telecom. Try and say that 3 times fast. Or once :P
French people are fanatics when it comes to text messaging. Colourful pulsating TV commercials for horoscopes to be sent to your phone (for a fee, bien sur) and even packages where you get free SMS' if you agree to have advertisements sent to your phone. Terrible.
Also, I think I'm getting hooked to French trash TV. Star Academy, like Big Brother and American Idol rolled into one. I'm rooting for Ely, la francophone canadienne!
