Rough day to be an American 


Today in French class we played a little "what is the impression outsiders have on your country". In our class there were 5 people from 5 different countries. An American (me of course), an Australian girl (Shannon), a Suisse guy, a Tanzanian girl, and a Japanese girl. We were each to choose one adjective in French to describe what our impression is of the other countries. Who would have thought that America had the least favorable impression...


tolérant - tolerant 
grand - big (land mass wise)
fort, bruyant - strong, loud
obèse - obese
bête - stupid


Australia had the best impression...at least I'm married to an Australian :)
