Today I Feel French

I don't know how to make a story short. So I will explain the whoooole reason why I feel French today.

My friend invited me on a cruise to the Bahamas. That's in 2 months and despite the point. However, I had to get a new passport because of it. I haven't used a passport since 4th grade when I traveled to Poland and Italy with my family.

My mom called me yesterday and told me that my passport had arrived in the mail. Which is good news for my cruise trip, since I will actually be able to go now. BUT then I started daydreaming of all the other places I can go with that passport!

I'm graduating this year. I probably won't get a job riiight away. SO... I coooould travel if I really wanted to, right?

Anyway, I took French in high school because I was always fascinated by the language and culture. I didn't learn much, except how to say "Hi, my name is Beata. I am very sexy" in French. Ask me sometime. It's VERY fluent. Oh, and I learned what that song from Moulin Rouge actually meant.

I had the opportunity to go to France my senior year of high school. That was one of those moments in life when you look back and wonder why the heck did I not go?!

Going to France is definitely on my bucket list. Traveling is. In the meantime, I will just eat crepes and listen to French music... and pretend I'm French.

My aunt, who is super Polish, also enjoys pretending to be French. Anytime I come over, French music is playing. ALWAYS. She claims her cats are French and only speak French. She has five cats. She has French looking decorations all over the house, photos of the Eiffel Tower, the Louvre, etc. etc. etc. She is so cool.

My Godfather recently went to France with his wife. He posted pictures on Facebook of them all over France. Just to rub it in my face. It made me want to go there even more.


So.. Today.. I feel French.
