hate the damn french!!

have just started french classes and i can say i positively hate it. i mean why the hell do they have all those extra letters if they dont intend to use it? and as if it wasnt complicated enough, there are those funny little thingies on the top of some words which changes what it has taken you forever to learn in the first place....but i am not one to give up easily. i shall persist to the end. till then heres wishing me a bonne journee!
