    Me too. I don't think there are any stations where you don't have to pump yourself here.

    I learned some more Thai today.

    maybe if you're going to write it, NeoTifa, but like I said later, I was using the colloquial form.

    Mais oui. C'est pas necessaire pour cette conversation.

    I learnt that drama llamas truly are the most boring people on the planet today. I'm too sympathetic, I keep on forgetting.

    Well, I was pleasantly surprised when I woke up this morning. Still remember most of what I tried teaching myself yesterday.

    I've just been trying to piece together words to form sentences in French with an English to French dictionary. Translating them in google goes fine but when I try to translate sentences in to French from English, I just get confused with the result.

    Should check myself a French language book at the library.


    Today, I learned that there was a naval battle in the Aleutian Islands during the Civil War.

    It's harder than you might think, MadeofApples I read a very good children's book about firefighters this summer in France though! It took me a long time to read it through and I reread it a couple of times for comprehension xD

    I learned that if I plan on picking up a job application from any place of business, I should call and ask them to hold on to one for me and tell them my name so that when I get there they don't tell me "sorry we're out and our printer's broken" and end up still working a part-time job with 10 hours a week for another year.

    I have the worst luck.

    Never, in my nearly 30 years of life, have I ever had someone pump gas for me. It is such a simple task, I can't comprehend needing to have someone on staff at a fueling station for this purpose.

    Once again, I didn't learn anything today. I think I might be at a point where I have nothing left to learn!

    Life wouldn't be worth living if this ever really happened.

    I learned that this one girl I know looks really good with her hair in a ponytail.

    True enough. I most likely learned things and just can't recall them at the moment.
