I see your future… I see… I see… native level French… and…. French people hearing you speak and thinking that you’re native French… I also see… complete mastery of French grammar… and… a novel, no, an autobiography, written in… in… entirely in French…. but before that, I see…. a visit to FrenchPod101.com, an audio lesson, a lot of hard work and… and…. after that it gets a little hazy…

So we know that both Celine and Alex went to see a fortune teller, seller…lol!
How about you?
Well, I saw once someone offering palm readings. So I thought “Hmmm why not try and see what he has to say!”. He told me I had to write. It’s the only thing which really surprised me and I remember.
I was surprise because in French composition I was not the best. In reality my grade were average to kind of low!
But now here I am writing comments and dialogs!
Maybe he was right after all!

Il y avait une fois un psychic a donné un service gratuit. Pendant le soir du 31 octobre, le fête d’Halloween, il révélait sur la téléphone des faits des vies anciennes des plusieurs personnes. Ce soir-là je n’ai pas pu parler au psychic parce que la ligne était toujours engagée. Ça m’a interessé beaucoup, et le lendemain j’ai téléphoné de nouveau le bureau de psychic. Le service gratuit était terminé, mais à ce temps-là, je l’aurais payé. D’abord je voulais seulement des renseignements. Je voulais savoir ce qu’ il pouvait me dire et je voulais savoir combien ça couterait. Je ne comptais pas sur parler au psychic si tôt, mais quelqu’ un a lui passé le téléphone.
Le psychic m’a donné aucun détail de ma vie ancienne, mais il a dit qu’ on a plusieurs vies et ça arrive souvent qu’ on change le sexe. Tout le temps qu’ il m’a parlé, il se trompait mon sexe. Il ne savait pas quel sexe j’étais dans cette vie. Comment pouvait-il savoir quel sexe j’étais dans une autre vie? Pour moi, c’était suffisant.
Bonjour Careyxxx
Hummm interessante experience. Apparemment celui là n’était pas très bon!
