Hewwo.
So I enjoyed the holidays. I went to a friend;s house for New Years. There were 8 of us, and we watched movies like "Victor Victoria" (yes!) and played games like Trivial Pursuit, Disney Edition. Lots of laughs. Lots of fun.
Oh, and I did end up going skating next to the Maison Carre. It was fun. Skating is definitely not one of my strong points, but I didn't fall once! So I was kinda proud. The other day we had lots of snow. Well, not lots at all, but because people here aren't used to it, everything shuts down, including the buses. So I didn't go to school Thursday or Friday. Pretty funny to think about, considering the snow you have been getting.
My friends have to do a presentation in English class, and I am helping by correcting it so that it sounds better when they read it aloud. They put it through the Google translator, which came up with some really funny phrases. The topic is about the TV show, Scrubs. Here is the best part: "The series features a narrative in the first person, very talkative characters, secondary plots intersect, waterfalls, and surreal scenes that represent the dreams of the characters awake." Gotta love that part about waterfalls. ;P
Here's something pretty neat. The President will be in Nimes tomorrow. At the Carre d'Art, the library. I don't think my class is going. Apparently it will be heated because of this school reform thing, the root of all the protests. The President has been hearing lots of bad things while going around the country. He and Darcos are not very popular right now, at all!
So yeah. I'm not very political, but if I got a chance to go, I think it would be pretty neat.
S'all for now!
