French 101, Period 5, Class 8 [3-13]

[notanactualfairy]

"As I believe I said at the beginning of this term, I am a native speaker of French, though I am not from France. How can this be?" Jean-Paul asked. "The answer is quite simple: I am Quebecois. We speak French. In Louisiana, in the United States, there are also some people who speak French as their first language; these are Cajuns. I would happily provide you with examples of the differences between our dialects, but they are largely in the swear words, and that is next week's class. French is also spoken in parts of Africa and, well, anywhere France previously had a colony." Jean-Paul went on to lecture on the differences in culture in these places.

"My question for you today is: given the choice between poutine, gumbo, and a croque-monsieur, which would you choose and why?"

Library, Thursday [ 03/13 ]

After neither a Bridge or a glowing ball of light appeared in the morning to open the library, it seemed the librarian might have to do actual work.

It was more than slightly concerning after the radio announcement the previous night.

Nevertheless, the library was open and being... well... the best word might be 'patrolled' by a slightly on edge librarian.

Conflict Management [First period] & Tactics [Second period]

Karal had received a handwavy voicemail from the Dean of Students, telling him that he was to go and set up a movie for two classes today.

It took him longer that it should have, but it was the first time he'd ever used a DVD player. Eventually, he got it, and the movie The Ump was ready to be watched.

He wrote a message on the board that said--

The Dean says that these classes are superseded by what is happening on the island. She has said to either watch the movie, or use the time productively.

--and signed his name under it.

[ooc: The classes are not happening at the same time - putting up two identical posts seemed a little silly. Please

wait for, and then

play in, the appropriate OCD!]
