Second Semester School Results and Highlights

So I'm officially done my first school year- weird. But thought I'd write up some highlights from final exams.

The fill in the blank question which always started with "How _____ ..."
-- How banana mangoes are you buying? (looking for "many")
-- How hospital corn are you preparing? (looking for "much")
-- How garden is the orange tree? (looking for "tall")
-- How fat is it from Labe to Dalaba? (looking for "far")

The dictation in my most advanced class:
-- She tock are l'eto sister wife thing. (I read "She took her little sister with her.")
-- Pippo boite old hawe her food. ("People bought all of her food.")

My favorite section, the "about me" section...
-- My preference don't dead, to have a long life. (brilliance)
-- My preference are foods and beaucoup. (me too)
-- I like you the bananas and oranges.
-- I like shweet potatoes.
The following are all from 9th grade.... they speak for themselves.
-- May age is big.
-- My favorite singer is Jennifer Lopez. (no mistakes, just ridiculous)
-- My favorite teacher is Rachel (Miss). ( this kid obviously has a good head on his shoulders)
-- My favoreth a Engleth.
-- My favorite age is 16 ans.
-- My age is tinty six.
-- My preference house is mangoes.

andddd the winner:
-- My house is 4 chambs, 1 salon in have or is your 1 magasin is ind a l'interieur 1 orange in avocado.

no words for that one. sheer brilliance!

Anywho, hope you all got as good a laugh from those as I did. I'll write more later, but thought I'd share those for now.

11th grade SM: 12 pass, 0 fail
11th grade SE: 13 pass, 6 fail
11th grade SS (most advanced in English): 27 pass, 6 fail
10th grade: 10 pass, 34 fail (don't care about English or their finals because it's the national exam they take in July that determines whether or not they pass into high school)
9th grade: 19 pass, 55 fail (no excuse. just not motivated and miserable. some very good students, mostly not though)

Anywho, more another day. I'm in bigger towns with cell phone reception thru July 6th so call me if you want!

love and miss you
