Je suis là!

Sorry about the blog silence lately – I haven’t disappeared, I’ve just been busy. Our choir concert is less than one month away and the répètes are becoming more intense each week. Thus, I’ve spent a lot of time listening to my Playlist and trying not to sound like Scuttle. En outre (Moreover), I’ve been training for a 10K race that will be held on the Day of St. Nicholas. I have no grand hopes for glory in either singing or running – they’re just nice pursuits which allow me to explore different sides of myself (and to get out of my room). Finally, work prep is picking up as the school year continues. No longer content with introduction activities, I’ve been spending more time crafting lesson plans that will be fun and informative for the students. The nicer weather has certainly helped in that respect. Sunny days motivate me to work harder so I can go outside and enjoy le beau temps, whereas cloudy days make me want to curl up with my laptop and watch Planet Earth while eating crackers. Part of the block is also due to my own perfectionism. One of the nicest characteristics of blog writing is its spontaneity. Not everything has to be perfected or clarified- just there. Wishing you sunny days ahead.

PS I’ll finish the Geneva updates this weekend !
