recently a new teacher arrived in the Written Punishments group on Yahoo, and on Monday I - having to much free time* - asked her for a punishment. I made up the story that I didn't wear my school blazer in the recent summer heat (which actually wasn't that far from the truth).
Miss Thivierge is the new French teacher, so naturally she told me to write my lines in French: "Mon uniforme n'est pas une décoration: je dois le porter en tout temps, même sur le chemin du retour.", 100 times. One mistake per page was thankfully allowed - I don't speak French so it was a bit more difficult than usual to write those lines.
Now, because I don't speak French I mixed up a word on page 3 a few times. I wrote "chemis" instead of "chemin". Miss Thivierge made me re-write page 3 four times.
So the blazer now stays on no matter how hot it is. Lesson learned. Until next time... ;-)

Très bon travail Cornelia!
ReplyDeleteC'est bien d'apprendre un peu de français.
By the way Cornelia: the title should be 'Lignes' en français, not 'Lines'.
ReplyDeleteSorry, I just want to help you.
Well done!
ReplyDeleteI wonder who was encouraging you :)
Hmm...I wish I could tell you. But someone in a tank stole that secret. ;-)
