12:35a - Oh Jessie, you are a witty fool. (Better a witty fool than a foolish wit, baha!)
I just tried to fumble my way through some French reading comprehension homework, and I discovered that I am not quite as fluent as I like to pretend I am. However, having my cunning foresight, I thought to record the audio of myself reading the French poem aloud in English. It made me giggle, so I thought I might type it out here.
(Note: My exclamation points in this are used to emphasize my tone of voice, although they may not actually be at the end of a sentence. Really, this all ended up sounding like one long sentence when I read it.)

"I have no age...I have no age. I see...oh, no. I sense...I...like an infant...who...is not born again, and who wants to be...no. Who wants to...get out, no, go out of this closed space! Who, like a foal, who...comes into life...no. Who comes of life! And who sees...every...I don't remember what that is anymore. Everything around him. Yeah, he sees everything around him! These beautiful horses that gallop! He wants...to...whatever that means. He wants to go with them! Be like them, he wants to be like them! Running with them! But he is weak! And his limbs are fragile, they're so fragile! And he stays there, at...look at his...than...(giggles) Without being able to move! And he watches them without being able to move!

"My dreams are so soft and so wise! They speak of adventures and voyages. Then I fly! And see the landscapes. I want to be a bird! Amongst MILLIONS of BIRDS who are my FRIENDS! And I fly...FLY...whatever that means high! I don't remember anymore. For touching the sun! So I know...no. So YOU know...so you fly...that...no. You fly this that the sky is beautiful! The clouds! THE LIFE IS BEAUTIFUL.

"That's...THEN...no. But I become...I return to being me! And I...am...low! I am NOT a bird! But someone like everyone who has to get up for going to school! I do not stay...that at wait for my majority! (giggles) For being able to evade me! LEAVE! Realize everythiiing that I...dream...for that every my thoughts...(giggles)...becoming my reality day."

This sound clip has been saved onto my cell phone, to anyone who actually wants to hear it. And no, you don't get the French version because then people like Sarah who can actually speak French will make DOUBLE fun of me. XD


current mood: 'TUPID
current music: Um...I'm listening to my ol' "Bugs and Friends Sing the Beatles" album.
