perfect my french

...to actually speak to other French speakers. I am not sure where to find them. I occasionally do when shopping for clothes, books and other necessities, but our conversations are brief and usually static.

Ce n’est pas bon. J’ai besoin de faire un petit plus d’effort.

...to enroll at the local Alliance Francaise here in the city, but the classes are either over-sold for the times when i want to go or I decide to register too late.

Excuses, excuses.
