Nov 13, Samedi

çava people :) I'm starting my new semester on Lundi(Monday), day after demain(tomorrow)--Dimache(Sunday).

It sounds so weird with english and français together, doet :p I know!! Super lack of vocabulary! Excuse-moi, si'l tu plaît /si-tu-play/ (excuse me, please) or it can be in excusez-moi, si'l vous plaît /si-wu-play/, excuse with a extra 'Z' is excuse in respected form, and vous is you in respected form while tu is you in a friendly manner.

I feel so number-ed today :p Just got my new numéro(number;/numeho/) for moi portable téléphone--BB. Cell phone, mobile phone, or aka hand phone is known as portable téléphone in d F language--le français. Where portable doesn't sounds like our english portable, it's something like /pok-ta-bleo/.
