Quand tu prends une limonade

The English is after the French, I just thought I would write in French first for practice then translate. Also there are some pictures. 

J'ai un historie amusant pour vous. Hier soir Ashley et moi, nous avons pris un verre avec un ami Français. Il est très gentil. Avec-il, nous avons eu une formidable discussion. Pour les boissons Ashley a eu une bière et Vincent a eu un chocolat chaud et moi, j'ai pris une limonade. Mais en France une limonade c'est le « sprite » donc j'ai eu un « sprite ». Bonne chose que j’aime le « sprite ». Voilà c'est mon historie qui montre cela que parfois les choses sont différentes de on pense qu'elles sont. J’ai vacance la prochaine semaine mais je ne sais pas encore que j’irai fait. Donc je suis stresse. J’espère que j’irai à Paris mais on verra voir. Quelque fois jours je parle bien mais autre jours je suis fâchée parce que la langue est très difficile. Souvent je pense que je comprends mais ensuit je trouve que non, je ne comprends pas. Franchement je peux écouter plus que je peux parler donc tout le monde pense que je ne comprends pas mais le contre je comprends ; je ne sais pas comment m’exprimer.  


I have a funny story for you. Yesterday night Ashley and I went and had a drink with a French friend. He is very nice. With him we had wonderful conversation. For the drinks, Ashley had beer, Vincent a hot chocolate and me lemonade. Well in France lemonade is sprite, so I had sprite. Good thing I like sprite. Well that is my story that shows that sometimes things are different than you think they are. I have vacation next week but I don’t know where I am going yet so I am stressed. I hope to go to Paris but we will see. Some days I speak well but other days I am mad because the language is complicated and difficult. Often I think I understand but then I find out that “no” I did not understand. Honestly I can listen better than I can speak so everyone thinks I do not understand but is it the opposite, I understand, I just don’t know how to express myself. So that is a summary of the month of October. I hope to have another update soon.

Fall has come


It has been awhile since I lasted blogged so I thought I would give an update. Things are going well here so many things have just become a part of my normal life that I don't know what to blog about. Ashley and I went to a beautiful city Sunday. The city is called Vishy and here are some pictures.
