La Présentation

Day Fifty-Eight

Yesterday Jihui and I had our presentation on Walt Disney.  It was a pretty sick powerpoint, lol.  I've got a lot of time on my hands and a lot of motivation when it comes to fun, creative projects.  Wish we had more of these at WP, haha.   It was a really fun presentation.  Learned a lot about him, he has a very interesting biography.  Also, we were the first group to present which gives some brownie points.  Hopefully that helps because I totally said he was married at the age of 44 instead of 24...the French number system + public speaking = your brain cannot add up the words fast enough.  lol

After class there was a movie showing for my program and they showed Freedom Writers in French =  Écrire Pour Exister.  The volume wasn't loud enough so it was really hard to understand without subtitles.  Thankfully I'd seen it before so I followed along.  Whenever I watch French television, I put the volume louder than usual haha.  It's just so hard to understand!  With subtitles, piece of cake.  But without them, I'm lost in translation. 

Today I'm all packed up and ready to fly to Germany!  I'll be spending Easter weekend with my cousin Megan and her husband!  Incredibly excited to spend this holiday with family and visit another place in Europe.  I won't be practicing much of any French--I'll just make up for it when I get back.   ;)

If you have a few minutes free, watch this video.  Let's remember why today is Good Friday.

I won't be posting this weekend so here's one for Easter.  His grace has delivered us.
