I just wanted to say- I can't wait.
I just wanted to say that I get giddy inside at the thought of croissants filled with chocolate, un café (sans lait), and me sitting at a café terrace and maybe, just maybe, passing for a parisienne. Too bad I have a tragically thick English accent and that I can`t lie to save my life. Perhaps I will just have to be a mumbler during my sejour in France, perhaps then they wont notice... or perhaps "this is what a québecoise sounds like" will be my line, or perhaps I'll just go with the whole "Canadians are a lovely bunch, don't you just looooooove me?" ohhh the plethora of options!
And I forgot to tell you about my secret identity. For I shall not be named Miss Emma Fox. Because really, how could anyone believe that an Emma Fox doesn't speak English? If only I looked Mexican enough to try pulling off the whole, oh yeah, my dads the president of Mexico thing. Sadly, I think the red hair, freckles and pale pale skin gives me away...
But anyways, while I am in Germany, I will be "I no English speak aber deutsch- ich spreche deutsch!". So I am searching for an alias. A secret identity. So that no one can be fooled. For if they ask were I come from I can say with pride _______. So help me out here people. Who should I become?

ReplyDeletei like the ring of it :) but my new foreign language?
ReplyDeleteAt least, I know the name of your bag, the famous and missing bag which la Poste tried to send to an non-existing adress.... Welcome in France, where the "so german" names common in the Alsacien area are unknown in the rest of the country !!!!
