I am thinking, feeling, and moving.

My Self-Summary

Random-yet-instructive facts about me:

* I have been rethinking my life for the past 2 years now. Like a huge spring cleaning. I feel quite satisfied with what I have done so far: there's just the bathroom part of my brain to remodel.

* I find so-called "reality tv" very scary.

* On a related note, apart from DVDs I have stopped watching tv and it feels great.

* I tend to prefer people that like to be viewed as a person, rather than an original concept, or worse, a catchy brand.
Now in French
Comme disait Marc, "Tout d'abord, des nouvelles de moi":

* Depuis bientôt 2 ans, je suis dans un grand ménage de printemps existentiel. Il ne me reste que la toilette.

* Je trouve la soi-disant "télé-réalité" épeurante.

* Dans la même veine, à part les DVD je n'écoute plus la télé.

* Je préfère les gens qui se présentent aux autres en tant que être humain à ceux et celles qui cherchent à être un concept original ou à se construire une image de marque.

What I’m doing with my life

I teach sociology in a college and I love it. I listen to lots of music, read lots of books, and I love it too. Currently, I am experiencing living on my own, after many years with flatmates or a girlfriend. An interesting challenge I must say.
Now in French
J'enseigne la sociologie au collégial et j'adore ça. J'écoute beaucoup de musique, je lis beaucoup de livres, j'adore ça aussi. Ces temps-ci j'expérimente la vie en solo, après plusieurs années avec des colocs ou en couple. C'est très instructif.

I’m really good at

Listening, writing, explaining things (hopefully!), exchanging on many interesting topics, laughing, etc.
Now in French
Écouter, écrire, explaining things (en tout cas j'espère), échanger sur différents sujets, rire, etc.

The first things people usually notice about me

I never asked anyone about that, really. Possibly my smile, which is stuck with me, even when inappropriate. Other than that, I don't know!
Now in French
Comme je n'ai jamais posé la question à personne, je ne sais pas trop. Mais je dirais mon sourire, qui m'accompagne dans les moments les plus inappropriés...

My favorite books, movies, music, and food

a) Fiction: Lord of the Rings, La mémoria, Grapes of wrath, or just about anything by Réjean Ducharme, Émile Zola, George Orwell, and Milan Kundera.

Non-fiction: Christopher Lasch, Gilles Lipovetsky, Theodor Adorno, Walter Benjamin, Régine Robin.

b) The Graduate, Once upon a time in the West, Modern Times, The Great Dictator, Cinema Paradiso, Dead man walking, The Age of Innocence, The Truman Show, Husbands and wives, Being John Malkovich, Yi-yi, Y tu mama tambien, Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind, Goodbye Lenin, C.r.a.z.y., Continental (Un film sans fusil), The Corporation

c) Simon and Garfunkel, Radiohead, Björk, Georges Brassens, Richard Desjardins, Beatles, Mara Tremblay, Neil Young, Bob Dylan, Godspeed, Leonard Cohen, Lhasa

d) Not much to say here: I like lots of food, lasagna is my favorite plate and I don't like coffee, so I drink lots and lots of tea. I think my favorite is Irish Breakfast. :)
Now in French
a) Fiction: Le Seigneur des Anneaux, La mémoria, Les raisins de la colère, ou à peu près n'importe quoi de Réjean Ducharme, Émile Zola, George Orwell et Milan Kundera.

d) Je n'ai pas grand chose d'intéressant à dire ici, à part que la lasagne est mon plat préféré et que je n'aime pas le café, alors je prends beaucoup, beaucoup de thé. Mon préféré est peut-être le Irish Breakfast. :)

The six things I could never do without

Apart from the obvious (food, etc.):

music, friends, reading, writing, fresh air and sunshine, affection.
Now in French
À part les plus évidents (bouffe et autres):

de la musique, des amis, de la lecture, de l'écriture, de l'air pur avec du soleil, de l'affection.

The most private thing I’m willing to admit here

The self-summary already says a lot, if you ask me...
Now in French
Ma présentation en dit déjà pas mal, il me semble...
