Nouveau Horizons

So when I got home from work today, I made B play the "I have a present for you, hold out your hands and close your eyes" game. I started with all the posters and materials that M sent home for him (what a good friend!). Then I surprised him with two books and a CD that I had picked up on my way home from work. He loved it all. Now, instead of hanging out with me, he's in the other room studying French from the CD. The thing is, he's freaking out because he's expected to go from 0 to 60 by Monday. Poor thing! I can hear him repeating the phrases from the CD, except that I just heard him say "oh shit." Now despite everything I've been told over the years, I'm pretty sure that's not actually French!

  1. Yay! B is excited and I am pretty sure that that isn't French either.

  2. hah. So how many languages is he going to teach? I'm so impressed with his skills. Didn't he basically teach himself Spanish before going to UMBC? Go B!
