ALLEZ LES BLEUS!!

Hey, again I’m back! I know it has been a long time since last I blogged, but I have been busy and I am sorry for that. I have quite a few things I’d like to talk about. 

First off... ALLEZ LES BLEUS!! THEY HAVE BEEN QUALIFIED FOR THE WORLD CUP!

 

ALLEZ LES BLEUS!!

Well, I feel like I have been really well integrated in the class and the handball team, and I feel that everyday things like talking more fluently than ever, and doing homework, and actually understanding what we are doing in the classes. I have played two handball matches since the last time I blogged and both where big wins! The first one we won 34-14 and the other 18-38.We owns the crap out of the teams down here, it’s so much fun! As we did in BVIF and Haslum, we sing in the shower when we win! The song is in my opinion very cool, and it goes like this:

Si t’es fier d’être LIFFRE’ en tu clap tes mains (clap, clap)

Si t’es fier d’être LIFFRE’ en tu clap tes mains (clap, clap)

Si t’es fier d’être LIFFRE’ en

Si t’es fier d’être LIFFRE’ en

Si t’es fier d’être LIFFRE’ en tu clap tes mains (clap, clap)

Si t’es fier d’être LIFFRE’ en tu tap tes pieds (tap, tap)

Si t’es fier d’être LIFFRE’ en tu tap tes pieds (tap, tap)

Si t’es fier d’être LIFFRE’ en

Si t’es fier d’être LIFFRE’ en

Si t’es fier d’être LIFFRE’ en tu tap tes pieds (tap, tap)

Si t’es fier d’être LIFFRE’ en tu dis OH HA ! (OH HA !)

Si t’es fier d’être LIFFRE’ en tu dis OH HA ! (OH HA !)

Si t’es fier d’être LIFFRE’ en

Si t’es fier d’être LIFFRE’ en

Si t’es fier d’être LIFFRE’ en tu dis OH HA ! (OH HA !)

Si t’es fier d’être LIFFRE’ en tu fais les trois (clap, clap, tap, tap, OH HA !)

Si t’es fier d’être LIFFRE’ en tu fais les trois (clap, clap, tap, tap, OH HA !)

Si t’es fier d’être LIFFRE’ en

Si t’es fier d’être LIFFRE’ en

Si t’es fier d’être LIFFRE’ en tu fais les trois (clap, clap, tap, tap, OH HA !)

 Furthermore I have had another western lesson and I am progressing well! This time I learned to clean the horse put on the saddle and trot! I am enjoying the so much that I am learning so many new things down here!

I have also been active in the Amnesty association and took part on my first stand on Marché des Lices! It was a cold but cool experience, and especially interesting and also cool to see the market waking up!

Otherwise in school things are going great, I am starting to get notes now in almost all the different subjects, ranging from 3-5/20 to 20/20… Although things are going well I was really surprised when I got my average in all the subjects, I had a better average than 1/3 RD OF THE CLASS! With 12.70/20, I am so happy! AND SURPRISED??!! I was honestly shocked when I heard that… But I think it’s safe to assume that the  teachers have been nice to me, mad I haven’t passed all the tests either, but that does not matter because 12.70 is 12.70 BASTA!  

So that’s it for this time, but I will try to write in shorter intervals, like that it can be short and more precise, I think I miss out on some things when there is several weeks between each post…

Until next time!  

2nd week of vacation + one week :)

Hello I'm back!

 (absence of pictures)

Better later than never?

No I am sorry I haven't posted anything the last two weeks... I have ha a lot to do an it was simply not on the top of my list..:)

I would like to start with what I did the second week in the holidays!

Monday morning we (my family and I) worked in the garden from around 11AM to 5PM...:) It was a nice thing to do and I was glad that I could help them in the garden, although while working I was happy, but a little sad at the same time. I was of course thinking of my family back home, and the times we worked in our garden, or even the times we had "Dugnad" on URA (for those who doesn't know the place - my cottage) cutting trees and bringing them to the outdoor fireplace, GOOD MEMORIES!<3

Back to reality.

After working in the garden, we took our stuff an headed for Brest! We arrive late and there my "uncle" and "aunt" waited for us with warm food! It was a nice pasta meal and afterwards I went to the beach house where the other AFSers waited for me!! We had the beach house for two nights, IT WAS AWESOME! We were all by ourselves, but the neighbors watched out for us ;) the first night we danced, played cards and had a party! The next morning we ate breakfast and then we walked to the shopping center, which we thought was a 40 minute walk but it turned out to be a 1h10m walk!! Thank god we took the bus home which goes once or twice a day...Me gusta!

We slept outdoor...!

 

After doing shopping,

Shopping list: classified*

Price 37€ each, 7 people :)

We made tacos and boller, we had such a great time…

My planning on the trip is going forward, I asked for families in AFS that could host us and I already got 4 possible places! Belgium, Milano, Berlin and Riga!! And that only after a few days! I really hope this plan works out!

After the three days with the other AFSers we took the bus that goes twice a day in to Brest, where most of the people took the train home, but Payton, Phoebe and I went to the Aquarium! After the aquarium, I was picked up by my father and then we went to the family of my father, really nice family! They had already hosted many times before and I felt that right away. The following days (Thursday and Friday) we went hiking along the beach in the beautiful landscape around Brest! Friday was my favorite trip; we walked round an island wonderful trip! Watching the waves crashing into the rocks along the shore really reminded me of the stormy days on URA with the big waves and the cozy living room playing card and drinking tea from a tea cup with a turtle on it.

Oceanopolis :)

When we came home I had a lot of homework to do because I didn’t do anything in the vacation, so I ended up working 5-6 hours on Sunday… However the result turned out to be fairly good, I mean I wrote 7 pages in total IN FRENCH!! Throughout the week I had a lot of work to do so there was not so much that happened – the usual. Saturday we went watching THOR!

And today, I’m here writing, until next time…!
