This the end my friend

After five weeks of exploration and amusement, it's now time to come back home. I feel like that I leave Quebec city so long time ago. In another hand, time have run very fast since I'm here. I haven't be bothered here because we have some much activities to do. But, I wouldn't live in Victoria. Granted, it's a nice city and the environment is great (sea nearby as the forest, good weather [well, better and less franzy than in Quebec], quiet lifestyle, etc.). But, the city is to small and I don't enjoy it as much as in my hometown.

Today, we had a farewell lunch in a downton hotel. All the staff was there. The only dark spot was that most students arrived more than thirty minutes in late. They had a big hang over after the party of the last night. We have a good lunch, especially for the dessert, and some pleasant speeches. The emotion was high. We all know that it was the end. They give us a diploma, a 10x10 picture of the group and a calendar made of many pictures taken during the last weeks. These are simple but really great gifts.

I'm not quite what the imersion program bring to me. I've got a really good mark. But, I've sill got a lot of problems with my english grammar (as you can see in this blog ;-). Maybe it helps to point out these problems.

I've also met a girl. She's in love with me. Maybe she's the one. My feelings are not clear. But we have a lot in common and we feel good together. For now, I must wait and see.

I feel a little bit confuse about this program. In one way, all tax payer give us the opportunuity to improve our English speaking. On the other hand, I'm not quite sure that it worth it. It seems unfair, because we are the happy few that do the program. And when we think about the people that pay for this program, especially those who came from other countries, we are privileged. I hope that every Quebecers and New-Brunswickers will realised it.
