rrrrrrrrr

So I'm sitting here between classes trying to find something productive to do...and I end up browsing some random blogrings. For some reason this one kid's little summary of himself really stuck out...it was something like, "Hey, I'm 13 years old and single (I know it sucks)....blah blah blah."

Ok, this kid is 13 years old, and already complaining about not having a girlfriend. Does he really feel like he's a complete loser because he's 13 and is still single? I feel like I should clue him in on how dumb it is to have "boyfriends/girlfriends" when you're 13. But then I'd probably just be sounding like his mom, huh?

My happy moment for the day: today in my French phonetics class, my professor had me read this paragraph, and when I was done he said, "MALLORY! Felicitations! Tes "R"s sont parfaits! Je suis vraiment fier!" which translates into, "MALLORY! Congratulations! Your Rs are perfect! I am so very proud!" He had been trying for about a year now to get me to have that little phlegmy sound when I pronounce my Rs so I could sound like a real French person, and I had been resisting forever, because I like my American accent, and because it requires more brainpower to phlegm up the Rs. But today, they just came out, so maybe I'm learning something in this class after all! (I sure did just realize that that paragraph will be utterly meaningless to most people, but oh well, it's my moment of glory, deal with it .)

My second happy moment of the day: I know how to spell phlegm.
