I thought this was funny.

This is an excerpt from my notes from an April meeting about studying abroad.  I was going over them today and couldn't stop shaking my head at my former (and, let's face it, present) self.  The bold bits are the comments I scribbled in the margins.

Women and Study Abroad
- French men can be more forward (Frenchmen y'all)
- follow your gut instincts and leave uncomfortable situations
- www.journeywoman.com 
FRENCH STREET GANGS <---this should not excite me...

Safety
- responsible for abiding by student laws
- avoid theft (FRENCH PICKPOCKETS!!!)
- keep a low profile

Note: Don't let Joyner drama cripple your Franciness


Anyway, I was amused as I read back over the notes.  I guess if I ever encounter a real French street gang I will be terribly put out if they don't have top hats.
