I start : What will you do this week end ?

Ok , I known some people like you , their parents worked in french "Embassies" around the world ...
So they where living at school all the time (they were staying at school on week-ends ) but leaving the school for the holidays..

Some of them had been learning in french school like you , before coming to my school in france.

only 3 school in france can keep students during the week end
because their parents work abroad. one in Paris (logically) , one in Nice & another one in Agen , which is a small town.

thank you for the word "subjects"

2 students ! it's cool . and these countries , like yours , where you stop school earlier are right on education.
here the students are too tired , and not concentrated to learn their lessons well.
they should do the same system in france.

Mmmmh...You're right.
It's cool in class because we're just 2 students...But it's sooooo boring somtimes.
The another don't understand an exercise,and I understand,so than i must wait and her a long time.Becouse she must understand the exercis,so then the teacher is explain to her...All the things,and i'm stick on my small table,and I almost sleep...
But sometimes it's me tath don't understand...Ans so is the another almost in sleep...^^

And (in spring,summer) it's sooo hot,that we can't concentrated on our lesson or exercise...Ans the most boring things is that:
When we don't understand an exercise (me and another),and when the teacher is giong to see the preps(les élèves de primaire)...We're in the small class,almost sleeping on the table because we can't continue,because we can't do the exercise...So then we're in the classe,head on the table,the eyes close,and we're speaking (because if we don't speak the another will very fall in sleep!!),and speaking...We're waiting on the teacher.And it's hot...

But sometimes it's funny (just when the teacher is here),when we do art or music!^^
And at this moment we will do a 3 Km...So then we're are encourging our house(maccabees) for winn this race.
And so do our teacher!^^

But tomorrow I can get at the time that I want...Because it's the week-end!!!!^^

Dylane Sedgwick a écrit:Sure ! =)
I love French poetry, like Rimbaud ^^
You've got a beautiful country too, we don't have little villages like yours in America.

For your information, I don't live in France...
I live in Switzerland (not so far of France, but...)!
^_^
And there certainly more little village! ^_^
We don't have so many cities...
And we are not so many! (about 7,500,000 people...)
^_^
But it's beautiful too, I think!
^_^

I was in a small class too a long time ago.
not as small as yours Charlotte, but we were 15 students in the whole School !!!! all that in the same classroom .....

4 in ce1, 4 in ce2 , 5 or 6 in cm1 , and 4 in my class of cm2

so it was a Big classroom divided in 4 parts ,
and the teacher had to navigate between these 4 "rangées" (colonnes) of students.
as he spent more time with the littlest students , I and the others of my class were "free".
after one or two exercises we had the rights to go at the back of the room , (where was a library , a computer and other things like this) to do what we want...

So a most part of the day we were chatting ,reading and drawing... It's not a coincidence that I'm not too bad at drawing and painting , I was doing it 5 hours a day , during 4 years... Lol ...


Oh ! what's a name ! "maccabees" is this the name of your school team ?
I laughed , but I imagine that it means something different in English or in your country....isn't it ?

Maccabees is the name of my sport house!^^
And next week,it's a little bit a "sport week",because
Monday we have the famous 3 Km!And the Tuesday we've got the "Sport Day"!And Wednesday we've got sport .Ans all the Tuesday and Thursday I've Tennis!!^^

So then this week-end I must sleep and training! lol

And you was just 15 in the all school!!!
That's not many!In the school,we're are in the "French Unit",and i'm in a English school.And in this English school,just for the HightSchool,they're is about 200 students...And in the PrepSchool(Primaire) they're very many people!!They must be about 300 ...

And all the time that we go out,everybody is looking at us.I sure they're must thinking "Why are the Frenches here?I never saw them in the day!They never croo the HighScool Area!"!

And today I do just Test!!The one first f,or good geting up,we're doing a Math Test!Super! Ans the a little break with the Prep's French Unit(la classe francaise de Primaire).
Ans we're eating delicious cake!^^I love Cake!!
Then we're doing a French Test during 2 hours!!
And the Afternoon we do a suprise test,the music test!!

What a day today!!!

Yes , I understand you are only two students because you're in the french unit .

But I was living in a small village , about 250 inhabitants.
That's why we were only 15 students in the whole school .(the prepschool)
Oh it was very funny...but we didn't learn anything...
and you can imagine the shokc when you come in highschool for the first time !!

I hated these days when I had a test on morning , a test on the afternoon ...but a sport-week why not ?
but "maccabees is a strange name" ! it makes me think to dead bodies , you see ?

Mmmmh...You know they're 4 Houses :
Green House:Maccabees (me!^^)
Red House:Massada
Yellow House:Carmel
Blue House:Sinaï

I like the name Maccabees,but it's right that's a stange name!
But the oders name of the houses are all so strange you see...But it's funny,because today it was the "House Birthday"!!^^And everybody was clothing with the colors of his ous,exept the French Unit!! Because like all all the time,we don't know the "Special Day".Because ,i'm in a English School,i've got uniforms.Ans there somme "Special Day" where we didn't have to took the uniform!But almost alltimes we don't know it.So then we must stay in uniform!
Arg!
But in not long,we'll change the uniformmm!!!!^^
Youpi!Girls will must take Pens and no skirt!!YES!!
And we'll change the color of the uniform.(The HighSchool color are fine but the prep's are sooooo not good,and sooo discustingggg!!!).

it's funny to have houses and special days...

some years ago we had special days too , like the "terminal's party" , all the "terminals students" had to come ( I don't remember how you say "deguisé") dressed with funny clothes like you're cleopatra , a vampire or a duchess...

when I saw this party , I couldn't wait to be in terminal class
just for participate too .
and another special day was the "100 jours du bac" you make this party when you are at 100 days of the grand test
(sorry it's not very correct this language )
every body became crazy and we were throwing eggs and ketchup everywhere... also we were going to the others schools of the town and making noise and mess...

So it was a great panic these days ,but this year it was too much for the provisor . some of them broke windows and things like that, so it's not allowed to celebrate this day now.
and I understand , but he stopped the terminal's party too, he shouldn't do that (because it wasn't a disorder celebration)
So I never could participate to the terminals' party

Sorry I've written a long text, I hope it's not too boring for you . (surtout que c'est un peu mal ecrit parfois, alors dur à comprendre...)and I must go to bed !
Bye..

Mmmh...That's unfair!
So then Good night!^^
I hope you will have a nice Suturday(I will!^^)
Bye...

I hope I will too but....
I can't say that it's starting brightly...

It's grey outside , there's nobody around here , So I will certainly
stay in "pyjama" the entire day . Lol ....
moreover I'm probably ill ...

So I pray for you and all the other one , to pass a better day than me

Oh!I will have a good and nice day!^^
I'll go to a friend (my only friend in the country),tan at 4 p.m we'll go looking a comedy from French/English, the name of this comedy is "Parlez-vous français?".
It's organisating (?) from the wife of my teacher!^^
The director from the "Alliance Française".
Ans then I'll sleep by my friend!

So i hope you will have a nice day too,maybe not so nice.But a good day!

Hey ! are there anyone else but Charlotte and I here ?

If i can help you, I think it's "organized by someone"

it's cool to go to theater or things like that! but no cinema , theater in my small village...snif
My friends are in town ,and I don't have my driver licence
to join them...
So there it's a good place to have a rest , some tranquility...
too much Tranquility... aaaarrrggh

(we can say when a person write a word she doesn' know, the next person
who is answering can tell her what's the word . so we can share,learn and find words we don't know!! If you're Okay?)

Not lucky!
I have many cinemas and two theaters in my town!
^_^
Personnaly I like the little viallges more than the cities...
It's more beautiful!
^_^

Mmmh...I prefere the citys,not the big like Paris or New York.
A city that's big,juste big enought...
Now i'm in the Capital,it's a big big bog city!But I never go and walk in the city!^^
It's to dangerous where i'm !!!

In fact , I need the twice : If I stay in town for a very long time , The countryside is missing me (more in summer) .

And contrary to this , I begin to feel bored , sad When I stay in campaign for long . and I need the city's noise and activity...
(this feeling is stonger in winter,because there's nothing to do at this period of the year)

I return back to my parent's home since 3-4 months, and they live at the countryside in a little little village...
But I lived at the nearest town , which isn't too big or too small.

Maybe I'll go to Bayonne next month, to live and study there .
but it's not sure , I'm waiting for an answer ...
So I'll be happy after this long campaign period .
(but It's not like I want : spend summer in campaign , and Winter in town )

Pfff...Yes,me too sometimes I prefer the village ,and sometimes I prefer the city.But I don't like big big city!!

Today I do the 3Km!!!!!I'm so tireeeeed!
And my teacher is the first teacher that arived!^^
The second student that arived is a Maccabees!!!^^
My teacher thing that arrived between 30 ans 40...But I don't think soooo...I think I arrived 80-100...
But you will never believe me how many students was running!Sooooooooooooo manyyyyyyyyyy!!!!
Around 400-500 students...So then I don't thing that I arrived 30-40...

Did you guys have a good day?

yes I had a good day...
I cooked with my mom , and she taught me how to do the "Blanquette de veau" .
She doesn't work this week , so we spent some time together last days. we did shopping yesterday , I bought a pair of shoes and a hat .
And tomorow we'll clean up the garden.(our dogs are having fun with everything they can find in the garden... so you can imagine the mess )

Well I'm happy to spend some time with my mother...
but I'm affraid because I'm waiting for an answer of the school where I want to go.

It's not too bad to be between the 30th and 40th when there are 500 people running !!!
The teachers were participating ? It's funny
they were not running at this competition in my school.
But there was a rugby match students/teachers in High school

Oh,that's cool!^^
Your mother is not working,but with your dog...
So then me,i'm the 3th girl that arrived in the 8 Grade(5eme)!!!Ans Yestudray was the Sport Day where I won a another medail...I'm second in the sac race!^^

So then, Tommorow is Friday,last day of the week!!!!^^
I'm so happy,I don't know why!!

So then Have a good Friday!!^^

The Sac Race !!! they should make it an olympic discipline
So you would be a Champion Lol !!!!
I can't remember my last "sac race",It was maybe about 10 or 12 years ago.......... but it's really funny

I'm Happy that the spring arrived here , The sun and the flowers are coming back . It smells good outside .
I love when these noises and odours are there (you Know the birds songs, the flowers perfume, the green grass..all that you can feel in campaign at this period)

Yes,me too I like it!
I'm felling fly in the blue sky!
I like it very much!^^

Here it's always sunny,it didn't change,expept that it's more hot...But we go at the pool!
And I'm in Holidays!!! With so many homework but it's not important !^^
Not long we'll eat lot of chocolat!^^

So then how was you day ?Nice or Bad?

Quite Nice ! I received the answer (I was desperatly waiting for!) from the school , and It's Ok !!

So I'm relief and I should take advantage of my last days of freedom .

And I'm eating lot of chocolates NOW!!!
.
(there aren't so many people here these days !Just you and I , sometimes an other one but it's all ! I've just taken a look back in the discuss ,and we are alone on this topic since two weeks, enfin presque !)

So have a good evening, and I enjoy we passed good days both. Bye

Yeah and I'm veru excited !
Thailand's beautiful country, I would want to go too ^^ !

Waouh!
It's been a long time since we spoke!
><
So, I restart the topic ^_^
Arf I don't know what to tell...
Do you have something to say to us? ^^

Hey, it has been a desert Here !!!!!!
my last mesage there is in April.... and there's only two answers after me !

I'm comin' Back guys !

I'm Working on an excursion, in Bayonne in English.
I'm nearly ready , so work for english, make me think to this topic .
So Here I am... and

So as you say, It has been a long time since we spoke !!!!!
.
I Love Bayone, I've been here since 6 months, but I've just discovered her , it's Hearts, the two rivers her veins...
I love this town. she's not just beautiful ... she lively

Oh yeah!
Somebody! ^_^
I agree to make you speaking English, but I have no idea about what to speak...
(and sorry if I make mistakes! I really like this language but I'm not... hum... the best, will we say )
Have you got an idea?
^_^
(oh it's so good to speak English ^^)

I can correct some mistakes, but not all, I think... I do what I can!

I love speaking English. I'm reading a book in English but it's too long ^^ I haven't got a good English... So, excuse me if I make some mistakes ; )
...
With Lilicullen, sometimes we speak English together : ) Don't listen She to her ! She has a very good English !! She has reading Twilight in English ; )
I'm sorry if you don't understand what I say, My English is bad lol ^^
I don't know what I can say ><'
OH, I'm not cheating : ) I say (write, here) what I think ^^
Please, correct me when I made mistakes.
What are U doing ?

It's done ^^

Lili speaks English well? Oh I should speak with her, so ^_^
Ooh I hadn't seen your age! You speak well for your age! O_o

Yes but maybe I make mistakes too...
(oh, there is a "s" at the end of help )

It's because I really love this language, I think ^^ so I listen to the teacher and I have good marks ^_^ (5,5/6 on average last year)
I'd like to know it almost perfectly ^_^

No no, it's okay!
I understand ^^ (and it's the more important )

helloooo there ... it's been a fucking while since last time i posted something in here... omg, old times .......

about your english level : i just saw that some of you are quite good, some people here are obviously able to use english grammar (almost) without any mistakes, and that's good !

but if some of you guys think they're bad or anything .. don't worry, it's probably linked to your age : you can't be as good at 14 as you will be at 20, so yeah, no problems, don't be ashamed to do some mistakes but learn to correct them, you'll progress quickly if you really really love english and you'll see it's a very nice feeling to be finally comfortable with a foreign language you've spent all your youth to learn



by the way i hope that all of you have (more or less) understood what i just said .. hahahah.

tell me if i make a mistake or if you truly don't get my talk, i'll help you understand
