I Like Whales

Since you asked, Selina, yes, we have abandoned this blog.

THE FACT THAT I COULD UNDERSTAND 99% OF THE FRENCH THING (the 1% being aujourd’hui)

I’M USING A SPANISH KEYBOARD TO TYPE IN FRENCH IS THAT SACRILEGE

L’amitie c’est manger tout le déjeuner d’autre.
(Friendship is eating all of the other’s lunch.) (I think. In theory. SELINA CHECK)

WHY IS THERE A C’EST EXPLAIN
SHOULD IT NOT BE L’AMITIE EST ____
*is even more of a noob than Selina*
My vocab is even worse. But in case you ever wanted to know, “pomegranate” is “grenade.”

Here is a song about whales. You may sing it to whatever tune you like.

~

Whales are great
and they sing often.
Why? I don’t know.
All I know is that singing is good,
singing often is better,
and whales are the best.

Whales are great
and they jump often.
Why? I don’t know.
All I know is that jumping is good,
jumping often is better,
and whales are the best.

Whales are great
and they _____ (your verb) often.
Why? I don’t know.
All I know is that _____ (your verb in gerund form) is good,
_____ (your verb in gerund form again) often is better,
and whales are the best.

Bridge:
Whales! Oh, whales!
Lovely lovely whales!
You sing! You jump! You _____ (your verb)!
Whales are great!

Ending:
Whaaaaaaleeeessss! (drawn out for as long as possible)

A Late Valentine's Poem (in French)

Okay, I'm not sure what happened to everyone else, but why am I the only one writing on this blog?
(¬_¬;)

Anyway, here's a Valentine's poem I wrote for my French class. Even though it's supposed to be the day of lovey-doveyness, I decided to write about friendship. After all, I know much more about friendship than love.
I'm pretty satisfied with how it turned out even though I'm a noob French student.


Qu'est-ce que l'amitie?

L'amitie c'est discuter avec toi
et aller au café
et écouter de la musique
et chanter avec toi.

L'amitie c'est danser avec toi
et faire un pique-nique
et jouer aux cartes
et voir des films avec toi.

Mes jours sont heureux avec toi.
Mon ami, aujourd'hui, je pense à toi.
Mon ami, je t'adore. Et toi?


And in case you can't read French, here's a translation:

What is friendship?

Friendship is chatting with you
and going to the cafe
and listening to music
and singing with you.

Friendship is dancing with you
and going on picnics
and playing cards
and watching movies with you.

My days are happy with you.
My friend, today, I'm thinking of you.
My friend, I adore you. And you?


Look at that limited vocabulary... ( ̄u ̄;)
