I was hopping for a generic application form - it would have made the process simpler 
Anyways :
My name's Marc-André Pelletier, I'm a 20 years old philosophy student from Quebec, a fictional nation subordinated to another fictional nation - Canada, which is more like a semblance (un simulacre) of the United states :lol:. Some of you might have heard that us folks speak french here ; this particularity explains that my english may seem clumsy at times. Nevertheless, I am somewhat skilful in french, which I believe is a great asset when it comes to manipulate a foreign language. (You still wouldn't believe at what rate I had to refer to a French-english dictionnary, only to align these few sentences)
Now, about my reading tastes : Balzac and Jean-Jacques Rousseau pretty much sums it up. I have explored many other french writers, but I just feel that I could be satisfied for the rest of my life only with these two - Balzac because of his unceasing litterary genius, and Rousseau for his exceptionnal sensibility. You might have guessed that I'm close-minded litterary wise - it is principally why I intend to get active on these forums, as I am convinced that there must surely be more to english litterature then Frankenstein and The catcher in the rye, the only two books that I have explored so far.
As for my temper, I am rather pessimistic. I do not have any consistant goals to aim at ; the sole idea of having to work mortifies me, althought i will probably end up being a teacher by default :lol: However, I yearn a better condition - that's where litterature comes in useful.
Here's a picture to conclude with : Imageshack - xzvxcv.png
Oh, yeah, and I intend to make an attempt at writing, someday, eventually, in a far far future, when I will have overcame the consciousness of my current mediocrity!
