Je ne Sais Quois

Michelle November 9, 2016

After discovering my French name: Michelle Park (yes, I i’m keeping the ‘k’ version of my name because it looks nicer) my next step is to find out the essential traits of a French woman. As mentioned before, I don’t have a desire to learn the French language, but I do want to learn how to be a graceful and beautiful French woman. Maybe I just want to be chic.

Okay, so here we go.

First step is research. Between Google, the Library*, Amazon.com and the University Book Shop (UBS) I think I’ve settled on a list of ten topics that can help me achieve transformation from me to French (in no particular order):

  • Wardrobe
  • Food
  • Opinion
  • Romance
  • Health
  • Intellect
  • Hair and skincare
  • Attitude
  • Transportation
  • Money

Hopefully by the end of this odyssey** I’ll have developed a certain je ne said quois that I’ll prefer.

*I didn’t really go to the Library.

**Let’s face it, we all know I’ll never finish this but I reckon even by dipping in a bit here and there I might be able to make enough of a change to make it worth the paper it’s written on. Thank goodness “being French” doesn’t hinge on finishing stuff!
