Classes

I meant to post this ages ago, but apparently I forgot!  Here it is for your information.

Classes are in full swing now, and they show no signs of slowing down! I decided to enroll in twenty hours per week, for a number of reasons. 1. The subjects are interesting 2. I don't have a job eating up my free time 3. When will I ever get another chance to take this many classes in French? So here is a run down of the classes I am taking:

*Perfecting Oral French (3 hrs,required)

*Perfecting Written French (3 hrs, required)

*Creative Writing (3 hrs, elective)

*French Society and Culture (1.5 hrs, elective)

*Modern French Literature (3 hrs, required as a "specialization"- we had to choose between literature, linguistics, or business)

*Francophone (French-African) Literature (2 hrs, required as a "specialization")

*French for Professional Communication (how to interact in job settings, helpful for internships) (1.5 hrs, elective)

*Preparation for the National C1 DALF Oral Exam (1.5 hrs, optional but encouraged)

*Preparation for the National C1 DALF Written Exam (1.5 hrs, same as DALF Oral)

So apart from frequent vacations, that is what's keeping me occupied these days! All of the classes except for the first two meet once a week, whereas those first two meet twice a week. By Friday I am generally exhausted from operating in French all the time, but hopefully my stamina will increase quickly!
