la belle langue de francais

Ils pleure dans mon coeur,
comme il pleut sur la ville.

Time

I seem to have run out of time.
It's like money,
u never know where you spend your money or your time for that matter.
Sometimes i feel like i drift around like a piece of debris in the waters
and only when i hit the shores
'wham'
and i wake up from my daze to realize
its already night
that i have been milling about in the crowd,
going to a lecture after another
and despite having huge loads of work to do
i just want to sleep.

And that's exactly what i do.
I need to learn how to stop procrastinate.

French is killing me!
Feel like my tongue has been twisted in ridiculous manner after French class.
But I really do want to get it mastered and work on my European languages.
Such a beauty, those languages.
Even saying something mundane like 'I have a car' is so sexy
'J'ai une voiture'
See what I mean?

Okay, apart from German, which, personally I feel, can sound a tad too grumpy and harsh,
European languages are great to learn.
But when u have all three in ur brain,
where, in my case, my brain is filled with other daydreams like things i want to be next time, new stuff i wanna learn...
i get them all mixed up..

A case in point:
My french tutor was reciting the numbers 'treize' when suddenly a memory loss gripped me and I started looking wondrously at my classmate who said that it meant 13 in French
when the only 'treize' i remembered was 'tres' in Spanish.
My mind is really screwed up sometimes.

French time coming up soon; the pressure is upon myself to study and do well.
I hate being an all-time perfectionist.
Sometimes it really drives me up the wall.

Je n'aime pas stress.

I have realised that I have been losing myself in endless tangential thoughts recently.
Someone help me.
