Well it’s been a lazy and chilly day in Pau, but I’ve enjoyed it.
Woke up early early for class, worn out from Italy and traveling still but with pep in my step! Had delicious bread and kiwi jam…surprisingly I LOVE IT :)
Anyways, class learning blah de blah subjontif blah and I gave my presentation on cheese, wine and foie gras of the bearn region, which is the region pau is in. during the middle of my presentation there was a fire alarm that went off, but such is my life. I continued shortly after it went off…as it continued to go off…yeah I talked over a fire alarm. Soon, it ended though. I did great, like…I was amazing. Anyway, we ate all of the above after my presentation…oh yeah I HAD FOUR SMALL CUPS OF WINE INNNNN CLASSSSS I do not miss onu right now haha they never let me drink in class and munch on cheese, bread, dark cherry jam, and foie gras. I was pleased.
After class, laura and I hopped over the vague for some chocolate gateau and some more cheese and an orangina which hit the spot. Then, her and I and some other students went to a phonetics class where we listened to and repeated French phrases with a recording. The teacher interviewed u first to give u a level to start out at and I started with the last chapter and finished in 20 minutes and she interviewed me again with a short reading aloud and then said I was super, excellente, tres excellente, and I left haha. It was fine…i do need work on saying prune vs. brune…
After phonetics, I went home for a long, luxurious nap and I sang singing in the rain in French on the walk home which made me happy b/c it was raining. I rarely sing walking places here…it’s like…not French. Oh well, it was joyful and not many people were on the streets so I did. Then, I slept to the sound of rain and woke up, did hmwk and had dinner. I’m so pleased with my dinner it like…was a flushing out of rich food I ate all weekend. I had petits pois, corn, a piece of chicken and a piece of cold ham and a carrot casserole thingy. Dessert was flan…which is just eggs and milk so basically I’m not eating super rich carbonera here which is good for my waist haha. I am trying to not to worry too much about diet though…which is why I enjoyed some cake and flan today.
Anyways, I finished mes devoirs so I’m just going to relax tonight and read a book and soak up the atmosphere of pau when it rains :) Bon soir!
