Movie Night

So we had an English Club movie night. It was our first one and we had 8 students come. We showed the movie on the projector at Del's apartment and had lots of snacks. It was a good night.

We showed Shawshank Redemption in english and then we had a discussion about the movie afterwards. We discussed the theme of the movie, reviewed any words that the students didn't understand, and went over the meaning of the word redemption. The meanings given for redemption by the students were "its when you are forgiven for the bad things you have done" and "its like what Jesus did for us". Pretty good answers I think!

Del settin up the movie

I told you we had snacks!

French food!

So I'm a nerd, but here are pictures of the food from the party! The party was catered and they did a GREAT job with the food. Enjoy the marvels of French cuisine.

The "spread for the day" A lady with a ham dress, some kind of fish jellied pate thing, vegetable flan, and this dish I can't remember the name of (a chicken leg, where the skin was carefully peeled back, the meat removed along with all but the end of the bone, then the mean was mixed with vegetables and put back in the skin. It is cooked and then sliced.)

Yes Ladies and gentlemen...that is ham and butter!

Impressive huh?

The cakes...these were made out of cream puffs...

and this once was chocolate! mmm

Well here they are! It took long enough...but here are the pictures from our Halloween party! We had a GREAT time and the man below us didn't get mad at us. In fact one of our neighbors said "Did you guys have a good Halloween? Your party was very calm." Phew!
