I came to France fully expecting to be confronted with a faceful of cultural differences. It’s Europe, not America, and therefore is bound to be unique by default. For the most part, this assumption has held true. The French eat differently, they talk differently, they dress differently, they carry themselves differently. And generally, it’s pretty ( Read more... )

They way you tell a story is hilarious! I literally laugh out loud reading some of your posts :)

And it's funny how im going to school to get myself a job involving children! What age? Im not sure ... and will it really happen? Who knows! We'll just have to wait and see!

We're pretty much in the same boat. I'm in a country perfecting a language that I'm probably never going to use... because I'd really love a writing job, and the chances of me getting hired to write in French in America are slim. (Hello, graduate school!)

But you know... if it doesn't work out for either of us, we could always be managers at Dave's. 'Cause I KNOW that's your dream job, deep down inside. :)

OMG, if a child of mine ever peed in the aisle of a store, he/she wouldn't sit down for a week. That's just disgusting.

I used to think I didn't want children either but since Darren and I got married, I've had this intense desire to get pregnant and create a new being that is part of both of us.

PDA makes me cringe too. I don't mind being groped in private but I sure don't want it where God and everybody can see. I don't want to watch anyone else get groped either.

i neeeeed you back! caribbean9561 April 14 2007, 02:10:22 UTC
