For example. There was a short essay, "What television show do you never watch?"
First of all, I couldn't tell if this question was a joke.
Secondly, after deciding it was no joke, my answer became a joke.
My translated and abbreviated response.
In the United States, I rarely watch television. (My first mistake because this is irrelevant and I should have lied and said I fucking love TV).The main reason I do watch television however, is to see the news. I watch the news almost every morning. My favorite news show is the Today Show (my second mistake and my first lie). The news show I never watch is Fox News, in particular, the O'Reilly Factor on the same channel (my third mistake- getting political). I never watch this news show because I have different opinions than those of the show. I prefer more unbiased news. Although I respect the opinions of others(my fourth mistake, trying to make up for my previous indiscretion), I will change the channel right away if I see Bill O'Reilly (my fifth mistake- using the name Bill O'Reilly in a French essay).
My sixth mistake-not running away after I handed in my test.
After the test, I spent the afternoon at the musee d'orsay and it made me the happiest little thing in Paris. (Read this beaut) So fuck that test! If I am placed in elementary French classes, I will thoroughly enjoy them and the extra time I will have on my hands to explore Paris.
I got my internship placement today too! I'll be traveling across Paris on Wednesday mornings at 8 for 3 hours of interning at Saint Germain de Charonne. I'm really excited. I meet with the directrice on Tuesday with Sabina. I'll be working with 8th and 9th graders, but apparently, since it's a wee little private Catholic school, they're gems. And that's my second lie.
Going out for drinks in a bit! Peace my friends. Love and miss you.
PS: I bought my first baguette today : )
