drats!!
I just saw you sneaking out! I was gonna ask you what a ALF class is!
I knew you didn't have time this morning to talk to me about it...
It's a program to help kids improve their french - roughly translated "Improving french language"
Actualisation Linguistique Française. Part of the assimilation, or stages of assimilation (to English) is the lack of vocabulary or the use of english syntacs when speaking in french. This program gives intensive attention to kids of Francophones, who are losing their french, a little at a time, and, without help, will just stop using it altogether; they'll be lacking too many words in their mother tongue, and will just stop trying to use it.
Feeling tired ... too late for a nap, too early for bed - Might go to bed & wake up at around midnight - then I'll spend the rest of the night awake (like I did last night, but al least I only got up at 2 am!)
