Angleterre = great. Napoléon = not.

Well, my excitement of the day has involved a. seeing a nun on a bicycle, and b. blogging on a Mac. An actual Mac. It's quite exciting. In regards to the nun, I saw her yesterday. On her little bicycle. In case you were wondering, nun in French is "Réligieuse" or "Soeur". I was. I even looked it up once I got to my class. I'm just that geeky. So yes, I saw her yesterday. Cycling away, in a holy manner. Yesterday also saw the witnessing of my first French 'manifestation'. I'll be honest, it was quite the let-down. A bunch of women whinging about their shop shutting or something. Actually disappointed.

Not alot else has happened really. Lessons, nothingy.

In other news, the reason that I am blogging on a Mac, is because I forget my username and password. So, being France, the only way that I can contact them about it, is if I write them a letter, or ring them. I fear that ringing them is the only worthwhile option. This petrifies me. I shall prepare a sheet with lots of vocab and potential questions. Failing that, I will resort to "Est-ce qu'il y a quelqu'un qui parle anglais la?" No me gusta.

In other news, I have a meeting with a scary man about assigning my seminar group, even though it has already been pretty much decided. The seminar in question, which I went to this morning. In which 2 hours were spent in "Essay writing for morons" and the other hour was a presentation on some dead old woman, followed by the tutor's critique of their presentation. Actually awful watching him attack her. Well, not attack. We know how the French aren't ones for the attack... :)
