different languages

last night while drinking wine and playing janitor (some of you may not know what janitor is. i assure you, you do. we had to call in janitor in my household growing up because we were and still are not allowed to swear. you will know it as asshole)so, i am playing janitor with 5 other people. one from korea, one from japan, one from the US, one from Brazil and then another canadian.. we started talking about languages and countries. it was really cool because almost everyone at the table, myself and the other canadian excluded spoke at least 3 languages. i guess if your first language is english, you dont necessarily have to learn other languages because english is the universal language. so anyways, we were discussing languages and i was learning different words in different languages.. it was weird because normally i teach other people words in french but i wasnt teaching anyone because all of these people could already speak french. it makes me want to learn more languages.

that sounds really cool. and speaking of 'janitor' there is a girl in one of my classes who plays 'janitor' all the time on her computer. i can't help but watch what she is doing too - i find it funny how the screen attracts my attention more so than anything else in the room.

the computer game she plays, however, goes by it's more traditional name, and the names of the default players aren't the Jim, Joe and Suzy that they are in Hearts, but are the names of Austin Powers' women.

the games seems very vulgar and offensive and really i don't like it ... but i am rambling so that is that.
