French Fries

Today, we ate french fries for lunch at the cantine.  Because we were eating fries, classes let out a little earlier than normal.  a cause des frites! (They literally gave each of us a huge plate of fries with either some chicken or a hot dog.

In all of my classes this week, I've been introducing myself to the students and then they get to ask me questions about myself.  I had one class today who got pretty creative.

Ok, I have a confession to make...I accidentally did something that is culturally unacceptable...

I said I didn't like Bob Marley.  The teacher told me that I will make the students cry.  Apparently, Bob Marley is the greatest thing since sliced bread over here.  Ah, cultural differences...

I really do like my students, though.  At least two classes told me I was beautiful...My estimation of their English abilities went up, naturally. 

Tomorrow is my day off (yay!).Mais, j'ai beaucoup de choses a faire...
