Another Train Post

This is certainly the most time I have had to write anything in a while. This week was far too insane school wise, and even in my minimal social life. On Wednesday I had two presentations, one in French and one in Spanish. The French one last the entire class! I was actually only presenting for roughly 40 minutes, but I had to stand up at the front the whole time for questions. This particular teacher does not seem overly bright because she asked many questions relating to my presentation layout, as well as the material I presented. There was much discussion with the rest of the class too, since I can could the number of students on my hand. Anyways, then later that day I had my Spanish presentation on housewives. (Ha Ha, I am using Microsoft Word to write this and it does not accept the term housewives and wishes me to use homemakers instead! I did not know that it mattered! [This also explains the lack of contractions in my text]). I am certainly more worried about my Spanish presentation because of my horrible pronunciation. In addition, I was forced to present first, which at this point seems like a good idea because everyone in my class is far more advanced than I.

Then on Thursday, a friend of Craig’s had invited me out to see a movie with him to pay me back for not making it to my party last Saturday. (By the way, Saturday was awesome! Casablanca in a club baby!) Anyways, we saw Burn after Reading, the movie with Brad Pitt. I do not exactly recommend it since the start was particularly slow… but then finally Brad Pitt came in and his character was by far the funniest! It was a very atypical role for him. The major problem with the movie (SPOILER ALERT) is that after Brad dies (only actually good part) everyone else just dies too, which is a little funny… but not really. Si vouz voulez en savoir plus, demandez moi!

Anyways, now it is Friday, and it has been a very stressful day. I had class this morning, and then I came home to get ready to leave for Toronto. I had another class just a short while ago, and had to leave from class right to the train station. Thus not only did everyone see all of my luggage, but also when I realized I had forgotten my headphones I knew that I could not return home to pick them up. Fortunately my friend Leslie was in this class and she was kind enough to pick them up at my house and bring them to me at the train station! THANKS AGAIN!

P.S. SERIOUSLY MISSING THE INTERNET!! lol. (Will post this sometime over the weekend… maybe).
