A quelle heure et comment tu te lèves ? At what time and how do you get up in the morning?
I wake up in the summer time around 10 o'clock, 10:30 maybe. I usually wake up because I’m not tired anymore. There is usually no alarm, but my mother comes here and I just wake up. That's on holidays, during the year I wake up at 6:20 by my alarm clock. That's it.I get up, brush my teeth, put on my cloth and go to school. No breakfast. I drive to school, I have a car. I just walk from the house, get in my car and go.
Pourquoi tu te lèves ? Why do you get up ?
I get up every morning because.... There are a lot of reasons! To see my friends, also to experience life like this and something new like in school maybe or meet a new person. There are a lot of reasons that one gets up in the morning, I guess. Anything, like to travel, to go to school, to read a book, to listen to music, to see friends, meet new friends. There are many different reasons for everyday I think.
Quelle est ta carotte dans la vie ? What is your « carrot » in life?
My greatest motivation in life is that I would like to be successful in order to be able to travel and not have to worry about if it is too expensive, you know what I mean, like one day if I want to go to Paris, I just by a ticket and go to Paris. I mean I don't have to save money for 6 months and then go on a trip. So I would like to have a good job in order to be able to do something like that because I love traveling and I want to go all over the world. And also I would like to learn two more languages, like french better and maybe japonese and so I would like to be able to speak fluent in other languages.
Qu’est ce qui te maintient debout ? What keeps you standing ?
My feet! I don't know, I'm usually so busy during the day doing one thing and then something else, and then something else that I just kind of run to the next one. I love life, la joie de vivre! Something like that so the more I'm busy, running around from one place to the other, that's what keeps me going in life. What I'm doing and also looking forward to the next thing to do, and then go there and then do that and then looking for the next thing. So it's wanting to do what I'm doing that day that keeps me awake and standing up.
Qu’est ce qui te laisse les jambes coupées ? What really get’s to you, what brings you down?
When I get a ticket from the police, un billet de police, a fine, when I do something bad like going crazy and the police come and also when something bad happens, like maybe the day before if I get in a really huge fight with my parents or with my friends. When bad things are going on like in the world, I'm really fed up. Like war, like when you see those commercials on the TV with the small children that are starving and dying, it makes you feel terrible. That's not good.
Si j'étais une fée : Un souhait ? If I was a fairy : A wish ?
I think that if you could give me one wish I would wish that myself and other people I come into contact with, like you and my friends back in United States, I think I wish for everyone to have a happy and fulfilling life. Like even if I don't talk with them any more, even if we stop talking, you have the news that they are still very happy even though I don't talk to them any more. For exemple, I speak to you one time, but maybe in 10 years from now, après 10 ans, maybe we don't talk to each other, despite this even though on ne parle pas tout le temps, I wish that you have a good life, a happy life, une joyeuse vie. So après beaucoup d'ans si je ne parle rien avec toi, like despite many people in my life, maybe 5 years or 10 years, I won't talk

i didn't get the last point about having a chat with someone ten years after having met him/her..... anyway you look great..... i mean cute...... your face... You look like an angel don't forget to match it with your heart ? i wish you all the best in this life........ money money of course to travel all over the world...... for that become a journalist !!! but you will see travelling is great but settling is super great after a while....... so have fun and be pretty !
