Thursday- BON ANNIVERSAIRE KERSH

SALUTTTT, so getting up at 6.30 was not too bad today. I had 4 observation lessons today and it was really interesting, I was with two teachers and their teaching styles really differ. It's interesting to see as sitting at the back of the class really shows me whether the kids are learning or not. In one lesson today, a girl was asleep on her desk..soo yeah...I can't wait to do that thing that Mr Jenkins used to do if people we sleeping on the table-he'd slam on the desk and say "SORRY AM I DISTURBING YOU"...lolz that's probably abuse or something...
I really love the Terminale Euro class (best at English-17-18years olds). They were asking me question and it was so cute as they were So shy, but they're all girls and really friendly so I think lessons with them will be fun. Seconde (15-16) however are basically little shits, except a select few who are really good! In a class today there was a boy that looked like he preferred to play football, but he was amazing, he knew all the answers and was really keen to learn!
Getting up at 6.30am was not too painful today, doing it again tomo but I finish at 10 so izz all good.

BON ANNIVERSAIRE KERSH...tu me manque beaucoup!!! (and Saz)

Off to cinema (surprise surprise) and maybe Brussels for the day on Saturday with Camb
bisous! xxxxxxxx

Hello school

Today was my first day observing at the school. I started at 8am. Insanity..pure insanity. I had to get up at 6.30 so I could get to the metro at 7! Anyway once I got there I didn't really mind as I finished at 11 so I had the rest of the day to totally what I wanted. Anyway, first class was Terminale (17-18 year olds) and they were fine. I was genuinely impressed with how much some of them knew and there was one girl in particular who was really good! Then we had a break and from 10-11, I observed a Seconde (15-16) lesson. It was a bit scary, they didn't really want to learn and their attitude generally was not amazing. However the teacher had really good control with them and didn't let them get away with anything, therefore the lesson went really smoothly.
Overall, scary but kind of exciting as this is the beginning of a journey (oh jesus).
I have the induction thing tomorrow, which is going to be SO SO boring as I've done nearly everything (including social security today)
argh
so tired...getting up at 6.30 is a joke
BISOUS XXXXXXX

Sunday and I'm in love

My god I love Sunday's here, I just got back from the Sunday market and I bought a roast chicken, fresh bread, salad and strawberries...was incredible. Just at some for lunch and it tasted AMAZING. The market was so busy and it was so sunny, just walking around tasting food and being with the locals was uber cool.
Yesterday I was hanging like a bitch, the house party vodka nearly killed me, but I carried on like a trooper and met Anna and Cornwall for lunch which was really nice...I ate more carbs than I care to say but it did the job lol. Then we went to the park and I read vogue...it was so cliche but beautiful. In the evening Yank, Yutta, Leah, Sophie and I went to see Presume Coupable at the cinema and it was so depressing/long/tiring/shocking, basically about a guy who was convicted of being a paedophile because this judge was corrupt... needless to saw we needed a beer afterwards, and we went to bar solpherino and drank beers...well more than planned as bierre citron was only 2euros each! So obviously I had 4...not the wisest of choices.
I'm sorry liver
I truly am..
Going to watch Lille vs Rennes (I think) at the pub today...BUUTTTTTTTTTT!!! (goal in French not but..)
bisous xxxx
