WARNING. THE COHERENCY OF THIS POST IS NOT GUARANTEED,
It has always bothered me that I will never know what a Spanish accent in French sounds like. What a French accent in Russian sounds like, or a Chinese accent in Arabic. I will never be able to pick out who sounds different in other languages, because I myself sound different. I hadn't thought about this in a while, but I remembered in French class today while we were watching a video clip of a Jewish man speaking in French about his experience with the Holocaust and being held safe in a basement in France. He spoke in English and had a noticeable accent from Russia (his oringinal home), yet I could not for the life of me pick up on it while he was speaking French. This makes me think of how terrible my accent in attempted French must be.
I've recently taken on the daunting task of making a full length, feature film, documentary on my high schools winter percussion ensemble. I actually don't have a full idea of how this is going to go. But here's to hoping, right?
I am slightly worried about taking AP U.S. History and AP Language and Compostition next year considering that I am still a sophomore and it is february. I shouldn't be planning for Junior year.
This has been a frazzled Bridget, over and out.
