Hoping to get my Chat Roulette on later tonight....

Okay hi again.

So I finished my homework (now I'm a super expert on the conflict in Fiji - did you even know there was conflict in Fiji? There is.) and now I'm kind of contemplating getting ready to go to a party with Shipra for her fraternity but I wanted to blog again.

I haven't gotten around to writing a really serious blog post about why I'm actually writing this blog in the first place.... but instead I'd just like to talk about something that really bothers me:

Recently I was talking with a friend of mine about Chat Roulette. (Now if you haven't played you should probably just google it because- however glorious and heavily endorsed- explaining Chat Roulette is not the point of this blog post.) So my friend - I don't even know who it was, I think an acquaintance...- kept going off about Chat Roulette - except she pronounced it Chat Roul-ay! UHHHHHH HELLOOOOOOO??? Obviously that is NOT how you pronounce it [via Wiki Answers]. Friends, please don't go trying to French-ify things if you don't know what you're doing. See the "e" at the end of the word???? Well that means you pronounce the entire word. I guess this is coming off a little pretentious, but really its something that's just been floating around my head and I have been wanting to write down.

In other news... Things I have done to prepare for a 9 month stay in Paris so far:

1. Listened to my Yelle Pandora radio station
2. Eaten a lot of pastries and brie. Separate occasions.
3. Worn black.
4. Changed my Facebook language to French... now I can "j'aime" things to my heart's content. It makes me a little j'aime-happy.

Au Revoir-

Clara
