Quand j'ai commencé ce journal, je pensais le laisser totalement libre d'accès mais plus le temps passe et plus je sélectionne l'option "friends only"... Certaines entrées resteront publiques et d'autres seront "friends only".
Alors, si vous souhaitez en savoir plus sur moi et ma vie ô combien passionnante (ironie, je précise), vous savez quoi faire. 

When I started this journal, I thought that I would let it free access to everyone but, I use more and more the option "friends only" these past weeks... Some entries will stay public and some others will be "friends only.
So, if you want to know more about me and my exiting life (very ironic here), you know what to do.



best. marriage. ever !!!

 I just saw the last The Office episode. Jim and Pam are finally getting married. The nuptial march (?) was playing when the guesses stop it and put on the stupidest song ever and everyone walk donw the aisle and dance funny. I already had this big smile on the face (because Jim and Pam are the cutest TV show couple ever) and I laughed so hard when I saw that!
I never want to get married but if I would I would totally like the same wedding. lol.

I love this show so much!

 Hey everybody!

I know i didn't post since a week ago when I annunced that I finally got a job. So one week later I can say I tired, very tired. I have to prepare what I have to do in classes, plus finish my f***cking thesis (by the way, I have only a few days left to finish it so I shloud stop bitching about it soon). 
On the bright side, I'm learning everyday. Like how not screw up when you're teaching your student how to use this totally strange and useless time called "subjonctif présent". lol.

On other news, I'm totally excited by all these season premiere coming: Gossip Girl, Californication, The Office... I can't wait to see Ed Westwick in Cali. First, because I love the show insanely and second because I would Ed play something different than Chuck. So...

While taping this post, I listened to Buffy epi 20, season 7. I feeling nostalgic of the show these days. It was the first show I was fan of. Anyway, in this episode, Spike tells this to Buffy:

" You listen to me. I’ve been alive a bit longer than you and dead a lot longer than that. I’ve seen things you couldn’t imagine and done things I’d prefer you didn’t. I don’t exactly have a reputation for being a thinker. I follow my blood which doesn’t exactly rush in the direction of my brain so I make a lot of mistakes. A lot of wrong bloody calls. A hundred plus years and there’s only one thing I’ve ever been sure of. You.

Hey, look at me. I’m not asking you for anything. When I say I love you, it’s not because I want you, or because I can’t have you. It has nothing to do with me. I love what you are, what you do, how you try. I’ve seen your kindness and your strength. I’ve seen the best and the worst of you and I understand with perfect clarity exactly what you are. You are a hell of a woman. Tears stream down her cheeks as she stares down at him kneeling before her. You’re the one, Buffy. "

Argh, I miss the show and I miss Spike, best vampire ever.
And with that, I return to the world of hard work and sleepless nights.

So a bit of explanation here. You know that phone call I got saturday to fix a job interview appointment?
Well.... I got the job!!!!!! :D

For now, it's 10 hours per week, 2 hours per day. I know, it's not a lot but if everything is doing okay, I will work 20h/week. So, I begin wednesday, yeah, it's quick, lol. I will have some chinese and japonese students.
The pay is correct and I don't have to worry about health insurance. 
Yeah me!!! lol.

I would tell you more tomorrow because I'm tired right now (I didn't sleep more than 5 hours). I'll meet my soon to be students. I'm excited and little stressed but most of all excited.

 Job news!

So, I still  have no feedback about the job interview of last monday BUT (note the big capital letters) I just got a phone call for another job interview monday. The job description is more interesting and it would be for the year. So... let's cross the fingers and hope it will work.

:D


dear Ikea...

[info]ancholia
 ... I'm completely, utterly in love with you! :D
As you can guess, I went to Ikea this morning with my parents and my brother. We were supposed to buy a couch. So, of course, we didn't buy the couch, lol, but we did buy a new rug for the living room, some news plates, forks and knives and some other little thing. We stayed 1h30 in the shop and that was like heaven. lol.

And now, I'm supposed to work on the thesis but I'm quite lazy suddenly. :P

 So... I came back from the job interview. It went well but I get this feeling that they won't choose me. Maybe it's because I think I'm not the most skilled for the job. Honestly, if I don't get the job, I won't be crushed.
In job news related, I got another mail for an offer to teach to young adults who wants to study in a French university and need some help.

Also, sorry for not commenting these last weeks, especially the fics but I'm pretty busy. I'll comment, don't worry but I just don't know when yet. lol.

 Yayyyy!!!
So I called the headmistress and she seems really nice, she has a very calm voice... Anyway, she told me more about the job. It's for 9 years old  kids, 25 hours per  week (I know it's not a lot but you have to prepare what you're going to do in classe so you actually work more than 25 hours). The pay is decent...
I have an interview appointment monday, at 12 AM. I can't wait.

 I think I just got a job interview, to teach french to kids, for september, full time, in a bilingual school.
I have to call this afternoon to make an appointment.

I need a job, like right now, so fingers crossed.

WARNING! big venting and bitching in this entry. 

Fucking thesis, I hate you!!! When I think everything is okay and checked, I find out something which is not right and then I have to go back to fix it. Of course, fixing it move some other things and I have more checking and fixing to do! Grrrrrr.

It may sounds very cryptic, sorry. But I feel like I'm never going to see the end of this monster, this tool of torture called thesis. 

I'm tired but hey, I have only one month left to finish it so I suppose it means 'back to work'. 
As its 4 p.m. here, I guess a mug of green tea would not hurt right now.

...trois petits tours et puis s'en va...

 I just sent an old email to the professor who supervises my thesis. I didn't send him anything for months now and I was supposed to be finished last october...
Of course, I immediately wrote him a mail explaining it was an error but still... I feel really bad right now.
I guess there is some good in my stupidity: I had to write him soon or later, so.... Here it is! I'm back to check my mail box for an eventual answer.

J'ai travaillé tard hier soir sur le mémoire. Ces derniers jours, je retrouve la motivation. Chose rare, lol, donc j'essaie d'en profiter au maximum. C'est peut être le fait de voir tout le monde autour de moi qui avance, évolue tandis que j'ai l'impression de faire du sur place.
Quoiqu'il en soit, voilà à quoi ressemble une soirée studieuse de travail.

I worked late last night, on the thesis. This past fews days, I'm feeling more motivated. This is a rare occurence, lol, so I try to exploit it as much as possible. Maybe I feel like this because everyone around me seem to grow, evolve while I'm standing by.
Anyway, here is what a working night look like. 


Notez la tasse de thé et le paquet de Pim's, il faut bien nourrir son cerveau. :P
Note the cup of tea and the Pim's, my brain needs some sustenance. :P




Voilà une infime partie de mes notes de mémo et ma façon d'écrire.
Here is a very little part of my notes and my handwriting

Je viens de perdre 2h de travail, c'est à dire 2 pages, sur Comic life à cause parce que je n'avais pas enregistré et que mon ordi a décidé de merder. Je suis dégoutée... et ce qui m'énerve le plus c'est que c'est de ma faute.

I just lost a 2 hours work, 2 pages in fact, in Comic life because I didn't save the file and then my computer decided to screw up. I'm so pissed off... and I more angry at myself because this is my fault.


Hommage à Bashung.
unch solveig
[info]ancholia
Alain Bashung, un chanteur français, est mort aujourd'hui d'un cancer.
Quand j'étais petite, je ne l'aimais pas du tout. Je crois que c'était à cause du clip d'une de ces chansons, Osez Joséphine, dans lequel on voit une femme, la poitrine nue.
Plus tard, j'ai appris à l'apprécier à sa juste valeur et plus particulièrement cette chanson: La nuit je mens. Ici en version live mais si vous n'avez jamais vu le clip, allez y, c'est un petit chef d'oeuvre.

Alain Bashung, a French singer, died today.
When I was younger, I really didn't like him. I think it was because in one of his video, Osez Joséphine, there was a woman with her chest bare.
Later, I learn to appreciate him et especially this song: La nuit je mens. Here is a live version but go see the video clip, this is a masterpiece.

J'étais en train de paresser et de lire mes entrées précédentes sur LJ et j'ai eu ce sentiment étrange que la personne derrière ces commentaires n'était pas moi.
Il est 18h passé et il me reste une tonne de choses à faire. Alors voici une liste de choses à faire pour m'encourager un peu:

- finir de corriger le chapitre d'une amie et commencer la correction du prochain
- écrire une lettre de motivation époustouflante, pour une travail incoryable (d'une durée de 2 mois et demi...)
- travailler sur the memoire
- travailler sur le projet d'anniv' de Solveig (chut, c'est une surprise)
- regarder l'épi 104 de Dollhouse (ce qui ne devrait pas être trop dur. mdr)
- arrêter de broyer du noir sans raison (peut être que je devrais arrêter d'écouter des chansons pop tristes mais j'aime tellement The National)
- arrêter de trainer sur le net, à écrire des conneries sur mon LJ et véritablement bosser...
:P

**********

I was procrastinating, reading my old posts and I had that weird feeling that I wasn't the person who wrote them.
It's past 6 p.m. and I still have a lot of things to do. So, here a to-do list to cheer me:

- finish to correct my friend's chapter and eventually begin the other one
- write a stunning cover letter for a wonderful job (for only 2 months and an half...)
- work on the thesis
- work on Solveig birthday project (shhh, this is a surprise)
- watch Dollhouse 104 (that one should not be hard, lol)
- stop brooding with no reasons (maybe I should stop listening to sad pop songs but I love sooo much The National)
- stop surfing on the net, writing stupid LJ posts and actually working on the list...

:P
