Francaise

I have a new French tutor. He also speaks Italian and Manderin. And being as how Italian is my next language to study after/alongside French, it looks like I have a tutor for the next 2 years. I'll also invest in audio tapes to expedite my studies, but having a tutor is the best way for me to learn a language. Structure. Devotion. Discipline. A strict timeline between tests and lessons. I need that teacher-pupil relationship. I was involved with a man from Sweden for a number of years and learned zero Swedish. Not that it would be of any use to me now.

I wonder if anyone told my tutor he looks like James Mcavoy?

I took a study break last night and saw 'A Walk Among The Tombstones'. Loved it. Liam Neeson is amazing. Love that guy. I was 30 minutes early, had a beer at the bar, when I came to the realization that two weeks wouldn't be enough time in France. After surfing both our embassy sites, it seems I can obtain a short time work Visa if I'm accepted as an apprentice to an existing French art program. That art program would need to write the embassy, etc., and it seems the French consulate us not far from me...

American art is horrible. Post modern garbage.

My tutor says the French food here (in LA) is awful. It was never my intent to visit Italy, France, and Spain for the food. When I go to Greece, however, that's a different story.

I don't know what's happening here in the US with art, literature, film... And to be honest I'm not entirely sure what brings tourists here anymore?

Everyone is taking their talents overseas.

Though,

I'm curious France, what's with the rooster??
