le diner avec les profs d'anglais

This week I went out more than I did on the weekend; at the Chantier in my previous blog, dinner with the English teachers on Wednesday, and partying with the English assistants from around the world on Thursday night because they were all in town for our orientation. Wednesday night us teachers had the whole restaurant to ourselves and the waiter would pause to sing us songs with his acoustic guitar and to tell jokes (all of which Heather and I did not understand with how fast he talked but we enjoyed alot nonetheless). I guess I have to brush up on my French music because all of the other teachers, especially Olivier knew all of the lyrics. I guess my "salade" and "baguette" songs from Lac du Bois don't suffice. And Thursday night was so much fun with Gregor, Mike, Rob, and I being told "Bon Appetit" by a random woman as we ate our cheap pizzas outside the bakery and me almost choking with laughter because of the odd things they say. Then we went to Auchan and got 20 Heinekens and some white wine for ten euros and headed over to Mike's place and about twenty assistants packed in getting to know each other over wine and beer. The pictures can speak for themselves. Let's just say Sarah found her mug of wine again and isn't good at rationing out how fast to drink it, so she was tipsy.
