dix-sept






People spoke of kissing and relationships and sex, and were told not to. Then people spoke of their family and were told not to still. But I like to see everyone’s family, it makes it easier to be here if I know other people miss theirs too. Most of us have not been so far from home for so long, and I think it is not a bad thing to remember what is important to us. What we want to be faithful to. I don’t think that word is just about your boyfriend or girlfriend. Putting up the photos is, for me, a way of being faithful to your family, showing they matter even though they are so far away. And to memories made with them and to how they have raised you to be. And we are here also to be faithful to our countries, share them with you and play for them. It is hard to lose because we want not to let them down. And I want to be faithful to my team mates also, be the best for them that I can be because they are very dear to me, and sharing an adventure. Faithfulness is for friends also, new ones who have helped us settle in here and old ones that have made it like home. None of us will have another year like this, so I think it is important to remember these so we make it the most it can be.

You seem like you intended to make a point. And then distracted from it.

Ik schreef hoe ik me voelde, dus ik ben blij met deze.

Perhaps writing in English would better serve your point?

I like Runes. I wrote what I felt in the language I felt like. It is my favourite class and also good for practice. But I have cast a spell so that anyone can read it.

You should use your other languages more, or you will forget them! That would be very sad.

I believe people were objecting to discussions that were in bad taste considering there were heightened emotions over unwanted kisses. I certainly have no objection to someone talking about their relationships if they earnestly feel the need to put it out there for all the world to see.

But as for families, I'm in complete agreement that that's a nice and completely unobjectionable topic so those who are moaning about it are really just those who will moan about anything given a chance.

I agree. And as for what you said about being faithful to families, and to countries - I like that. I think sharing pictures of our families and where we come from is a way of sharing ourselves with people, and showing that we have something to be proud about in showing off the people that help to make us who they are. I know that some of us who've lost family members would find that especially important to do.

Merci. Exactement. We are here to make better relationships, oui, and learn of countries and people? I think this is a good way to do this thing to know more about the people we are sharing our year with.

I had not thought of people whose families had gone, but this is a good point, also, though I am sorry you have. I miss mine very much from here, it must be much harder for you.

Exactly. I think by talking about our families is a good way of showing the more sceptical amongst us that we're all human and that we'll all have something in common.

It's OK. I'm proud of my dad, so I don't mind mentioning him.

Merci beaucoup! I find it is very helpful for learning in a different language, oui? also for checking my Rune work.
