I had an awesome day today! I got some work done in the book I have to read, 1984, and I talked to a lot of people. I was in a good mood today and that was awesome. Last week seemed to go by really slowly but I can tell this week is already going to go by quickly (knock on wood).
We had a lot of classes today. French, history, English, and two hours of math. I think my speaking is getting a lot better and my listening is a billion times better than what it used to be. I'm so proud of myself. Florence even said I had good vocabulary and that made me really happy. Something I need to remember though is that I have to wait for the teacher to say sit down before class begins. I always forget.
It's funny though, when people ask me my name and I say "Alexandra" without an accent they don't understand. I have to say it with an accent and then they say "Ohhhh okay!".
Solène and I watched Harry Potter (the 6th one) and that was practically the cherry on top of my day. I'm a Harry Potter geek.
I'm really tired from not sleeping last night because of the time change, so bonne nuit!

It's so encouraging to hear the way you are improving your French but also how much you are enjoying yourself. Happy news! Love, Mom.
ReplyDeleteLove you!
DeleteI am so happy to hear that you are using your vocabulary. I hope some of things you have been taught are useful. It is also great to hear the improvement in listening! Imagine taking a French listening test when you return. You would be awesome!
