20 minit setiap pagi
What do we (or should) do 20 minutes everyday? Exercise? Maybe. But that's not the answer in my case. I would rather say ----> mots-fléchés (crosswords)
In Lille there are a few free newspapers. There's metro, lilleplus and 20 minutes. Among the students, the favourite is 20 minutes. Some say because it has brighter colours ( which is true, if you compare it to the other 2). But for me the reason would be the crosswords.
The free newspapers (aka tabloids) are available at the métro stations. Since I live with in campus and need not to commute by métro, I deliberately go to the station every morning on the way to class just to get my copy of 20 minutes.
Sometimes people ask me "Do you about the bla bla thing? It was in the 20 minutes this morning", and I'd go "Heh?" because normally i jump straight away to the crosswords page, like most of my classmates (and those who don't do crosswords too because in the same page you can find the horoscopes of the day).
I usually do the crosswords with Johanna and Hélène (they're damn good), but there are also Guillaume, Alex, Loïc and Quentin. My classmates always say that it's incredible for someone who's not francophone to do the crosswords in french. But i don't think so since it sometime keeps on repeating the same words with the same clues. And I usually find words that has to do with general knowledge instead of language fluency (egyptian symbols for literature = hiéroglyphe), or words that has to do with tropical countries (tropical tree = tamarinier).
