October 10th already. What do you know about that.
To be perfectly honest, I don't know what to say this morning. Since I wasn't asked to go to work for the rest of last week after Monday, I did what any normal person would do. A few museums, personal walking tours, and eventually waiting for my friends to get out of work. I do have work this week though, which means I can finally feel productive again. That's the thing about this program. Yes, you work hard and it's frankly more emotionally and physically taxing than it is academic, but what happens when we go back to school? I won't have written an actual essay since May and my homework won't only consist of French grammar and mini-questionnaires about the sites/museums we've been to in order to ensure Maria that we were listening during her lecture.
I'm going to make this entry a short one, because although I could have things to rattle about, sometimes it's best to quit while you're ahead. One thing that I have been meaning to post here, however, is a list I've been keeping of American film titles that were poorly or funnily translated into French. So far it's only a few:
1. Youth in Revolt - Be Bad!
2. Grown-Ups - Friends for Always
3. Going to the Distance - Too Far For You
4. Despicable Me - Me, Beastly and Mean
5. Step Up 3D - Sexy Dance 3
Happy Sunday, everyone.
