Excuse My French!


French has always been my favorite language.

A few years ago, I had a brief...uhhhm...affair, with a Frenchman who was half Pinoy. Because of that, I kinda learned the language. It was fairly easy for me, plus I bought books and downloaded some audio stuff I could use. I learned how to construct basic sentences and what-not.

Now, I learned that the College of Arts and Letters in UP offers an extramural non-credit course in French. It'll be a 3-hour class every Saturday at either 9am-12pm or 2pm-5pm and that will be for 10 weeks per level. They offer up to Level 6 and all their materials come from Alliance Francais de Manille.

So I inquired about the classes and they informed me that the enrollment will be on June 7-15 and classes start on  June 18. It'll costs about 4k php per level at pasok na pasok sa sweldo. Not bad diba?

Since I love the French language, I plan to go to Paris before I die, and I work for Canadians, it should be a great experience for me. Plus, it'll be a good way to make new friends. I plan on broadening my horizons now that I've been here for one year.

So get ready UP. Come June, adamsplanet shall be walking down your hallowed halls.
