.. I received a 14/20 on my French  written test!! This is a really really good score to get here and I even did better then some people in my class. I probably wouldn’t have done this well without the help of my handy friend, the dictionary, but still I am proud of actually finally receiving a good score! Also, the strikes never seem to stop here in France… there seems to be one or two a week. But today was a really big one and even the kids at my school were protesting. Everything was blocked and there were people all over the place screaming and chanting. It’s quite funny to watch actually. In my class today, less than half of us showed up because everyone else was out protesting or couldn’t get in. Vive la France!
