There wasn't really

Today I got up a few minutes later than normal. It wasn't a big deal, though, because I still managed to catch the bus. When I got to school, I started the day with Latin. Sarah wasn't there today, so I sat in the back with Justine and Claire. Like normal, though, I was lost the whole time and ended up just doodling.

French came next. All we did was talk about Manon Lescout and take more notes. I swear I think we will be doing that until the end of the year! We've spent about a week talking about the same TWO PAGES! I dunno how much more in depth we can go with those! Haha!

After French was two hours of Histoire/Geographie. We started class by getting our quizzes from last week back. My teacher didn't give me a note (grade), and instead just corrected my French and wrote on the side how many points I would have earned for each question. If it would have counted, I would've had a 7.5/20! Haha! After that, we did some geography. We basically just talked about the pros and cons of different regions in France (industrial, agricultural, etc). It was kind of interesting. I'm getting better about keeping up with my notes, too! My vocabulary is getting better, so I don't have to at the same word a million times to get the spelling and the accents right. I'm getting a LITTLE better. :)! We had a break half way through and then watched a litte film.

At noon, I was done with class until 4:00. I spent the first hour in front of the school, talking with Sabrina and some guy who's in Post Bac. Then Sabrina and I went to go eat lunch with Marion, Virginie, and Laureen at 1:00. An hour later after everyone was done eating, Sabrina and I went to the CPE office. We talked to the lady to see if I could take the Bac Français or not, and she still didn't know, so I have to check with her again on Friday. I did, however, get my Carnet today! That's a book that every student has containing your schedule, absence/tardy slips, space for your parents or teachers to write notes, etc. I was pretty happy to finally get that! I GOT ON FACEBOOK! I showed Sabrina a bunch of pictures that were on there and added some people from my school and all that. I tried to join my school network, too, but then it kicked me out of the South High one! That was irritating! I switched back to South and then it wouldn't let me rejoin Gambetta, so whatevs. I'll figure that out some other time.

Just before four, we left the CDI and made our way to French. This time, we spent the whole hour rewriting the little extract from the book we've been talking about in the other character's perspective. I got 5 sentences down. Everyone else had multiple pages of The extract (like I said earlier) is only a front and back of a page. I don't know how everyone could stretch out their stories so much! The end of class came, and people were complaining that they weren't finished, so the stories are now due on Thursday. Hah. I dunno what else I can write, so I think I will just have to rest with my short paragraph.

I was done with school at 5:00, but my host mom didn't come until about 6:00, so I hung out and talked with Sabrina, Marion, and Virginie for a little while. When I got home, I ate a snack and then got online! Tonight my host mom is at a meeting, so Pierre and I are holding down the fort. haha. I'm going to try and get to bed kind of early tonight.

Until tomorrow,
