I've been reading a lot of blogs for the past two years... And I have finally decided to create my own!
I want to share some parts oy my life (broken student life may I add!) and I want to share that in English!!! I'm from Québec (Canada) so, French is my first language and I think that writing in English will help me improving my skills! I watch a lot of movies and DVD in English, but I don't get the chance to speak or to write a lot! So, this blog will be a good exercise for me! (So, there will be some grammar and spelling mistakes, be indulgent!)
The title of my blog « Les mots ne mentent pas » is in French and it means something like that: « Words don't lie ». In fact, it's a line from Paul Eluard's poem La terre est bleue comme une orange, a surrealist poem that I just love! Literature is my passion!
About me
I live in Québec city, national capital of Québec. I moved here about 6 years ago for college and I'm still in college, trying to finish my Master Degree in Literature! (I will talk about that later!) I originally come from a little town in the east of Québec (an 8.5 hour drive!). My parents still live there but I don't get to see them often. I like my hometown, but my home is now here, in Québec city!
I just love my city, it's so beautiful!

I moved with B. my boyfriend of 8 years(!!!) past June! Moving together was a big step but we were definitely ready for that! I just love being with him and having dinner with him (almost) every night! We live in a nice appartment and I can't wait to decorate it! (We didn't paint any walls when we moved here because B. is actually job hunting and we don't know if we are going to stay here long! I hope he finds a job soon!)
I love my life and I'm grateful for what I have!
It's weird to write a long text in English, I feel like I'm writing a dissertation for school!!! In fact, it reminds me of High School English class haha!!! I have to get use to, I think!
See ya!
Don't be shy just to leave a message to tell me that you came by here!
ReplyDeleteYour English is fantastic! What a great way to practice your writing skills in a foreign language. I hate that the only language I know is English. Someday I hope to change that!
ReplyDeleteQuebec looks beautiful. I would love to visit Canada someday.
Thanks Becky!
ReplyDeleteIn school, we begin to learn English when we are in Grade 3 here! (until the end of High School!) So, I have learned a lot with the years! But I know I still have things to improve!
