She minces no words.

Dont Mince Words



When in Rome 0

Posted on February 16, 2005 by Marna

When you do not want to be like everyone else in eighth grade, what do you do? You take French classes. I followed through with that language in high school and college. Now I live in Los Angeles and I’ve learned an important lesson.

Why didn’t I take Spanish? I need to take a conversational Spanish class so I can communicate with various audiences in this town (beyond ordering a burrito and a beer). In the meantime, I decided I’d try to learn a word a day, but I would choose words I’d use in every-day life, especially in the workplace.

Today I mastered whatever and douche bag.

Je n’ai sais pas. Manger tout son soûl.
