I'm pretty sure I didn't do that fabulously on the test. And by pretty sure, I mean I didn't do well on the test. Ah well, it's just a test, right?
For one part she gave vocab and we had to explain the vocab. I got most of the words, but one was "cancre" and I had no idea what that was. I vaguely remember it being mentioned in class, but I did the math and I'm already attempting to learn at least 40 words a day. Some words are bound to slip through the cracks (or, in my case, most of the words). It looked like the word "cancer" so I just wrote that someone who was a cancre was born in July and that cancre was their star sign.
Yeah, so cancre means a dunce. That should be interesting.
I think I got most of the other words. The only section I completely bombed was the listening portion, so I might actually be ok. I mean, that was only 1/4 of the test. And maybe my teacher gives points for effort.
I went out with a small group and we went dancing. I danced with a guy from Columbia, but every time I tried to speak to him in Spanish it came out in French. (No, I wasn't drunk. That would have at least been an excuse.) I found this ironic because everytime I try to speak during class in French in comes out in Spanish. I thought it might work if I tried to speak in French so that it would come out Spanish, so I attempted that but it didn't work. *Sigh*
We went to a concert on Thursday. It was at a really hip cafe. I could tell this because there was a tree sticking out of the middle of our table. I can only assume this is the epitome of hipness. There was also a stop-motion claymation projection going on behind them while the music was playing, which also is the epitome of hipness.
I'm taking today as a day of rest. I've been going all over the place and I just needed a day off. It's been very nice, and now maybe my brain will be able to speak in French.
