so its been a long time since i ve written on this thing...

but anyway, im still alive in case you were concerned. this last weekend was pretty fun. on saturday i went to a National French Honor Society dinner meeting at Macaroni Grill.  Some of the people I thought that I didn't like arent that bad some of the time.

Then on Sunday i went over to Meo's and we hung out for a little and then went to Ryann's where she was a having a party.  So then a few of the guys went home but three stayed...  We'll leave it at that.  If you want the rest of the details you can just ask.

XOXO Chels

A French teacher was explaining to her college class that in French, unlike English, nouns are designated as either masculine or feminine.  House is feminine "la maison." Pencil is masculine "le crayon."

A student asked, "What gender is 'computer'?"  Instead of giving the answer, the teachers split the class into two groups (male and female) and asked them to decide for themselves whether "computer" should be a masculine or a feminine noun.

Each group was asked to give four reasons for their recommendation.

The men's group decided that "computer" should definitely be of the feminine gender (la computer) because:

1. No one but their creator understands their internal logic;
2. The native language they use to communicate with other computers is incomprehensible to everyone else;
3. Even the smallest mistakes are stored in long term memory for possible later review; and,
4. As soon as you make a commitment to one, you find yourself spending half your paycheck on accessories for it.

The women's group, however, concluded that computers should be masculine (le computer) because:

1. In order to do anything with them, you have to turn them on;
2. They have a lot of data but still can't think for themselves;
3. They are supposed to help you solve problems, but half of the time they ARE the problem; and,
4. As soon as you commit to one, you realize that if you had waited a little longer, you could have gotten a better model.

The women won.
