I finally completed and sent the placement test needed by the French school I wish to attend. It was a long one at seven pages. I did my best, and believe I did a respectable job considering how many years it's been since my past French studies concluded. In my email cover note, I asked that my starting level recommendation be slightly lower than the one they suggest. I would prefer to be slightly ahead of the class group than struggling to catch up. I can often have very high expectations for myself, and when I don't meet those expectations I get anxious and overwhelmed.
My French class should hopefully be during the daytime during the week. I need something to do during the daytime, as I'm home all alone then. The class will meet only once per week, but I will push myself to study on other days. This is a comparatively big addition to my weekly responsibilities, which have only been that of a housewife for quite a while.
I'm glad it's Friday. I want to clean up the house fairly well today. This Sunday, hubby and I have a concert to go to. That will be nice.
