Le Havre has a lot of construction going on. Some examples
are the tram tracks, St. Nicolas residence, and a bridge near Les Docks. This
bridge is very important because it has the potential to cut an extra five-eight
minutes off our walking route to school. Sadly it was not completed for a long
time, until now. Finally I have an easier route to school! I honestly hated
walking all the way around the docks, it's very empty and there's usually a lot
of dog crap. Now my path is nice and shit free. Also it goes right by the
station meaning if I want a little snack I can easily drop in and grab a bite.
Class was odd today. This was the Monday when I was supposed to do my
presentation on the differences between French and American film. However, I
wasn't able to do it. I was going to go last, but Kate wanted to do hers. I was
a bit shocked when she went to the front of the room, I even said, "Kate
what's going on?" She told me that it was fine and gave her presentation
on British and French cuisine. She was able to convince most of the class,
especially M. Martel, that haggis was a creature with four legs, one that is
shorter than the others, that runs around the hills of Scotland. Joy to
ignorance. It's alright that I didn't go, I'll just be the first one next week.
I hope I don't lose my nerve, giving speeches isn't exactly my strong point.
The French aspect doesn't help either. Oh well, like Mrs. Bennet I have poor
tired nerves. Have you all no respect for them?
