voila, c'est presque la fin de ce programme.
je suis un peu triste car je dois quitter la france et mes eleves.
(swtiching back to english speaking mode, just finished my class...)
all the good things have an end.
here it is, the beginning of an end.
i'm starting to feel a bit down as i will have to leave this lovely country and my cute kids.
now, it's time to wrap things up, here my milestones:
1. national strikes, or as they call it "mouvements sociaux", experienced: 3 times (or 100kms of rail tracks?).
2. amount of time spent on waiting for my carte vitale to get ready: 6 months.
3. improvements made i.t.o. the french languge: -5 points (totally back to B1 level again).
4. commands learned to train dogs (and/or small children): plenty. e.g. sit, run, stop running, don't scream, go play, go play farther away, shut up, listen, look, jump (i might need to learn "fetch" as well)...
5. friends made: 0.
6. bottles of decent wine consumed: 0.
7. number of stays in paris: plenty.
8. number of train rides: countless. (in fact, i think i've almost used up all the quota of train rides for my entire life during this 7 months in europe... well, come to this, i'm hopping on the train soon again.)
9. number of pre-packed lunch consumed: countless. (if i had to eat more of them in the coming months, i would have to kill myself.)
10. number of kids that i've bonded with: 300.
