When I
returned to Rennes after my vacation to England, it was time to gear up for the
arrival of Les Admissibles. We needed to decorate the school with our beach
themed decorations, organize our reception, and make welcome packs!
I had
decided to take part in the show that the French students would put on for the
candidates each night. I figured I would just be a pompom girl and help
backstage but I was lucky enough to get a role in “G’Rennes Anatomy” a parody
of Grey’s Anatomy. I would have to speak French for the role and after one
train wreck rehearsal, I made sure to learn all of my text for the next day.
Although I was super nervous, I did my best to keep a smile and stay in
character.
After a
couple of weeks of welcoming the candidates, we all had a weekend free to head
to the beach in St. Malo. My friend Mary was kind enough to host us at her
family’s vacation home there! We spent a day on the beach, soaking up sun and
swimming in the sea. It was just what I needed!
That
evening, we prepared a nice dinner and cocktails and enjoyed our little French
cottage which was once a barn! The next day, we went to get authentic Bretagne
Galette. We also got to ride through the city and take in the fresh sea air as
well as get an amazing view of the coast!
I returned
home refreshed and ready to tackle the final weeks of my internship. I can’t
believe it’s already time to start packing!
