Dear Bishop Grandin ,
I won't be attending your high school reunion .You kicked me out remember? I never threw a pencil across the room like the beauty culture teacher said I did but you told my dad I was being unruly.

Where I go for News
I'm definitely liking the computer for all things relating to articles and even the news . I like using google for everything nowadays. The blogging community does a fair share of keeping you updated on things like the weather, tips, and current affairs too. I never liked the newspaper but now I know for sure I have no need for it since I can even get a job online and there is more online in the way of shopping and classifieds that I even care for .

An Embarrassing, Foot-in-Mouth Moment
Describe your most embarrassing foot-in-mouth moment.
I went to a french school in Algiers, Bois de Boulogne . I started grade 1 there. I didn't speak french but I picked it up quickly. My teacher, Madame Bauxnier (sp?), felt like she needed to ask my sister and I if we were twins. Of course she asked in french :
"Etes vous jumelle?"
I didn't know what that was , and I never bothered to ask . Why would people think we were twins anyway? I don't look anything like my sister , and we aren't twins .
I responded : "Non, nous sommes Canadiennes" .
In my mind it was an answer that I was proud of and made sure everyone knew it too . Everyone in class started laughing . I felt like a smart-ass .
UPDATE: If you don't know what the french translates to please see comments for the english translation . Thank you
