Results of Placement Test!

So apparently I'm in the avancé level for French! I just got my placement test results back and I'm in the DAEF program (Le Diplôme Avancé d'Études Française). There are 5 levels all together and I'm 2nd from the top! So happy! I hope that I get some credits that are transferable back to UVic. Classes start on Monday and I'm so excited! (I know I sound like a geek...but oh well!).

Tonight I also watched the world cup game of Rugby between France and Ireland. It was a win or die situation for France. If they lost to Ireland today they were out of the world cup. I went with some friends I met here (2 Australians and a Norwegian girl) to an Irish pub! It was a blast. Jam packed with people (mostly French surprisingly). I think they were there mainly to taunt the few Irish people in Strasbourg. The Irish lost 3-25. I was rooting for Ireland just to be against the French...plus my name is Irish, so why not? Apparently I was cheering for the wrong side!

Great Pics. Very beautiful indeed! Congrats on your placement test! Will be thinking of you on your 1st day of classes.
I knew you were speaking better French than you gave yourself credit for. Relax and dont be afraid to take some risks, in language that is!!! LOL
That crooked bldg reminded dad & I of the one in Mon Chou(Germany)where the glass factory was!
Bonsoir, ma petit chou. Sp?

That's great, your place looks really nice (but I'm not sure if it still looks so good now that you've moved in :P)
