L'école - Poem (translation below)

Hope you like it :)

L'école est si mauvaise,

elle me vole la jeunesse,

me craint tous les jours,

je la deteste, pas de doutes!

Je veux aller loin d'ici,

suivre mon coeur, vivre ma vie.

Pour ces trucs je n'ai aucun interet,

tout ça m'inquiete.

Je veux connaitre le monde,

pas le Latin ou les math si au fond.

TRANSLATION

Title: School

School is so bad,

it steals my youth,

it scares me daily,

I hate it, no doubt about it!

I want to go far from here,

follow my heart, live my life.

I have no interest in this stuff,

it upsets me,

I want to know the world,

not Latin or math so deeply.

Oh you do seem to be so excited about learning things. And there is so much to learn out side of school. Though enjoy school while you are in school. You might miss it, at least a little some day, if not classes and work... teachers, being with friends/classmates...perhaps the food served at lunch, etc. Nice little write.

nice to see you mixing it up with the french!

I hate school. Im glad im in my last year, haha.

[外人 (Gaijin)]

Me in the second last :(

[Britt]

well thats not too bad. Im kind of scared to graduate, haha. not ready to be on my own yet!

[外人 (Gaijin)]

that's exactly what I'm craving for ! ahaha
I'm so sick of people telling me what I should do, what I should study, it makes me feel like a kindergarten kid who always needs a teacher to take him by the hand !

[Britt]

hahah! i know how you feel, but luckily once im done at hell, im gonna go to a community college for a couple years, then figure out what i want to do after that. im sick of my mom yelling at me all the time, but ill miss that when i leave. hahah

[MandaBear]

Yes I totally agree! Although the only time I really liked school was when I was in history class. Great write!

Hi, I am going to help with the translation

School so meanly,- mauvais translates as "bad" so I would rewrite this as "School is so bad"
steals my youth,-" it steals my youth"
it scares me everyday,- "scares me daily"
I hate it, no doubts (about it)! "I hate it, no doubt (no s) about it!"
I want to go far (away) from here,- "I want to go far from here"- I like the 2 f's together better
follow my heart, live my life. "follow my heart, live my life"
For this stuff I have no interest, "I have no interest in this stuff"
it upsets me,-" it upsets me"
I want to know (visit) the world, "I want to know the world"
not latin or maths so deeply.- "not Latin and math (no s) so deeply." languages are capitalized in English (but not in french)

Let me know what you think!

[外人 (Gaijin)]

Perfectly, thank you very much ! Correcting right now ;)

[外人 (Gaijin)]

PS: Languages are capitalized in French as well, my mistake xD

[icelandicblue]

I always thought parle-tu français or en anglais- that "French" and "English" were lowercase. I thought that countries were capitalized. My bad.

[外人 (Gaijin)]

... Now I have doubts ahahahah

[Lexi Nicole]

Yes. This. I agree with this piece wholeheartedly! Great work, as usual!
