Joyeux Anniversaire....

...to me...I'm totally 20 today. Which is really crazy. Unfortunately, I have a ton of work to get done tonight before we can celebrate...we were apparently going to last night, but my friends (being brilliant) made plans, and guess who they forgot to tell....mmmyup, me. So! That was a bit of a disaster. So we'll probably try again.

Anyway, sorry this update is so short, but I need to take a shower and write a paper and create an oral presentation and eat dinner and practice on Alex's guitar (okay well I don't NEED to do that, but the fact that she's letting me learn to play her acoustic guitar is VERY cool...so I'm going to :-D)

Also, here's a random thing I noticed when I was at a church service the other weekend: everyone uses "tu" when they talk about God. "Tu" is the pronoun you use to talk to someone you know very well, like a friend or a sibling or a family member. "Vous" is what you use when you're talking to someone you don't know very well, or a superior, or an adult (if you are a child). I guess it makes sense, but it definitely taught me a lot about the usage of "tu" and "vous", and a bit about relating to God. Neat.
