Mon Stage

I have exciting news! I will be interning at a middle school teaching French and theatre! I couldn't be more pleased with this as it hits my major and both minors! But also all my interests as well! I am very excited and my first day is Tuesday! I feel really good about this as I have drifted out of my honeymoon phase of Paris. I have been a little desensitized by the fact that it's a real city. There are rude people, it is dirty and fast paced and stressful. It rains on and off all day almost everyday. But after talking to the principal and learning about the great opportunity I have, I fell in love with the city again. I was walking around after my interview and it was actually sunny and not too cold. I stopped at a cafe for un coca et une croque Madame while reading a French newspaper. I realize how cliche that image is but it really made me realize that I am in the city I want to be in. I have never lived in a big city so I am definitely facing new challenges but I know this experience will be so beneficial to my French and my own growth. I am so happy how things have turned out so far!

Bon weekend!
