FRANCOPHONE WEEK

THURSDAY 23rd, MARCH 2017 (24° C GOODBYE TO THE RAIN)

So last week was the francophone week, well, the celebration of that day in my college but a within a whole week.

I call it myself "la semaine de la connerie ici" but not because I hate French or anything like that. I just hate that our university force us to participate and spend lots of money in things that will only last one day. And what's that for? for publicity for the school. 

Free publicity for them while we spend so much money in those things. Three of the 5 days were really fucked up, there was a picnic and aching ass for an hour. We were sitting on the floor waiting 2 hours without eating, we were there 6:45 A.M. and none had had breakfast. So we were starving while there were asking us to wait for the camera man to record all in 100 takes.

All this for their free publicity, I  hate them so much. So the resume of the other days, forced labour, money expense and so on.

The only day that was worth it was the Friday, we had a french movie and two conferences one which was almost trash and the other one was about how easy is for us to have a scholarship to go to France, to study, to work to make a master etc. There were 3 speakers for that, my French online teacher Léna, a French Alliance Representative and The Director of the French Alliance and also ambassador in Veracruz (my state).

They told us, you don't need money for this, you only need to have a good level in French. They exposed how easy is to find scholarships, the money or other factors wouldn't be a problem.

They had several argument for doing this, so this opened my eyes to stop saying that getting a scholarship to go to France or another country is impossible. Now I know I have to do something.
