A few things....
1 - The French people never take the "skin" off of camembert, brie, or any cheese like that ever ever ever. Also, brie, camembert all french cheeses ... are unbelievably undeniably the most delicious thing you will ever taste in your life.
2 - The French people don't drink very much water, but when they do they fill a tiny little glass up half way or 3/4s of the way and then chug.
3 - No one drives anywhere ...adults walk for miles and miles or take 3 different metros to get where they need to be.
4 - Smoking is not only culturally and socially acceptable, I think its actually socially encouraged.
5 - French people drink their beer out of huge beer wine glasses that have funny logos and huge fleur de lis or other things on them and golden rims.
6 - Every French person says "up!" "up!" as an expression whenever anythings happens or they pick up something or... anything.
7 - They really do wear scarves as often as we think they do
8 - All French paper ...paper like printer paper, school paper, etc. is taller and skinnier than US paper (13") long ....kinda ironic, no?
...Thats about it for now! More to come on my first week of class!!
