Today was quiet fun and full. This morning we had our test
and we will see how that went tomorrow. Truthfully it doesn’t mean much because
we aren’t getting a language placement of anything just a certificate with the
amount of hours we have completed. All that said I don’t think I did too bad; I
forgot some vocabulary but most of it I was pretty confident in. We had a small
break and then had to create a dialogue with a partner. The break was actually
pretty crazy because some boys had taken a bottle for a water dispenser and
filled it with beer. So it was hilarious to watch people walk up and figure out
there was beer and not water. I wish I would have recorded it. But then the
director saw it and one of the assistants, Peter, came down in a fury and removed
it. It was just great to see people’s reactions. A great stress release after
the test!
The dialogue: My partner was Ecathrine from Moldova. I have been
hanging out with her a lot this past week and I really like her… I have to get
a picture of us tomorrow. Our dialogue compared a shopping mall here in
Bratislava to ones in the US. Then we just played a bunch of games with the
rest of our time. The first game the teacher said a category and we have to
write what we thought the majority of other people would say and we got points
accordingly. The next game one person had to leave and we picked someone for
them to be and they could ask only yes or no questions to figure it out.
Lastly, we played another round of charades! Then lunch and just hanging around
until our singing workshop. Today we had a short workshop today because all of
the workshop presented what they had be working on. The presentations were
fantastic and totally varied; we had everything from theater to film to singing
and dancing to photography to creative writing. I was awesome to see what
everyone had been preparing! And I was lucky enough to have Zach (the boy from
Pennsylvania) record our singing portion! We were pretty good if I don’t say so
myself! And with only four days of practice!
Then dinner and I walked back to
the room, decided to go for a run! It was great just to run by the river! Then
just hanging out with Autumn and Selena in our room! Until tomorrow! <3
