My first job in a silicon factory In 2006, after I graduated from my school of Engineering, I found a job as a production Engineer in a chemical plant site which produces silicon mainly for the car industry. Roughly, my job consisted of supervising the production of silicon in terms of quantity but also in quality. I had to manage directly 2 foremen and indirectly 6 teams of 8 operators working in shifts. My daily task was to check the quantity and quality of silicon produced and make the necessary chemical adjustments according to the results of the previous day. Sometimes I also had to face some technical difficulties such as incidents caused by mechanical failures (or breakdowns ?), human accidents, strikes, staff or raw material shortages, and so on.. It was tough work but it was fun. I used to spend long days and nights in the plant making sure that everything was going as smoothly as possible. I used to get on well with the staff especially the operators. Their task was difficult as they were working with high temperatures, dust, noise, molten metal… I will talk about how a silicon furnace works later. Thanks in advance for taking the time to correct my mistakes.

A few words about my life near Paris Tonight I wanted to talk about where I live and how I feel about my city. I live in a city 20 km away from Paris, in the suburbs. With the public transportation system you can reach the centre of Paris in less than 30 minutes which is very convenient when you work there or when you just want to go to hang out. But the thing is that I don’t like the town where I live. It’s way too busy, people are always moody, there are huge traffic jams and the air is polluted. There are few parks and playgrounds and there is concrete everywhere. It’s more and more difficult to feel happy in such environment. Especially with kids. I want to give them the best I can and this place is certainly not the best place to live as a kid. I grew up in a much nicer environment (in the south of France) and I am therefore a bit ashamed not to be able to give them what I used to have when I was a kid. But hopefully everything will change soon. I am applying for a job very far from the Paris region and in the event that I pass the tests, everything will change in our life. We will be in another country with a different language, in a multi-cultural environment and in a very big city. But for now, let’s cross our fingers! Thank you for taking the time to correct my entry!

J'ai fait plusieurs tâches (je dirais plutôt « choses ») aujourd'hui. Premièrement, ma mon copain et moi, nous avons déjeuné. C'est horrible ( ?? que veux tu dire par là ? ) que le déjeuner est soit le premier événement de ma journée, je sais. Mais quand même, je suis étudiante, et je le serai encore pour deux semaines. Il faut que j'en profite.
Après notre déjeuner, j'ai eu un entretien au téléphone. C'est (ou "c’était") pour une un poste d'enseignement à dans une école primaire privée. La femme avec qui j'ai parlée était très gentille, et je vais visiter l'école cette semaine. J'ai une un autre entretien le même également cet (ou "cette") après-midi, pour une un poste de recherche. J'espère que les deux sont seront réussis !
Après l'entretien, j'ai parlé avec une femme française (ou juste « une française ») sur Skype pour pratiquer le français et l'aider à parler l'anglais. L'expérience était très agréable (je dirais : « c’était très sympa »). Puis, je suis allée à l'église pour une messe. Il y a deux prêtes prêtres dans mon église, et l'un celui qui est plus jeune va partir cette ce mois-ci. Il vient de l d'Amérique latine (et c'est "Cinco de Mayo aujourd'hui !), donc on a chanté des chansons en espagnol. Après la messe il y avait un une "fiesta" avec les chips tortillas, la sauce salsa, les margaritas, et les bonbons mexicains. Je suis une membre de la chorale, et c'était difficile pour moi de chanter en espagnol, mais ça en valait la peine, parce que j'aime les margaritas. :)

Très bon texte !! Bien joué !

Talking about my business trip As I said last night, I am currently away from the office, on a business trip. I took the train this afternoon from Paris to Nantes. It was a nearly 3 hour train ride. When we got to Nantes, we picked up a rental car and drove to a hotel in a village nearby where we had booked a room. Since we arrived very early, we took the opportunity to walk and see the ocean which was near the hotel. It was a nice walk even though the wind was blowing very hard and I got some sand in the face which was a bit unpleasant. Then we went back to the hotel and had some dinner. I had some fish for starter, then some meat with green beans and mashed potatoes, some typical French cheeses and a white cheese with strawberry jam for dessert. That was excellent and a very good value for money. Tonight I am working in my room as preparation for tomorrow’s business meeting.

Rain and Bicycle I just wanted to share with you the fact that yesterday I said that I was keen on cycling especially when it comes to commuting and regardless of the weather. Well I think that I shouldn't have said that! Today, my trip back from work was terrible! It was raining cats and dogs! I got soaked by the time I was home! But it was funny (or “fun” ?) anyway as there were some traffic jams that cheered me up a little during my ride under the rain. Anyway, I am not going to commute by bicycle tomorrow. I have to go on a mission and I won’t go home until Wednesday night. I will tell you more about that later on. Thank you to take the time to correct my text !

Back to work tomorrow ! It was a long and nice vacation. But now it’s over and I must confess that I’m HAPPY to go back to work tomorrow even though I have to wake up early ! Indeed, I really like my job and I also like the time I spend on commuting. The thing is that I am lucky enough to have the chance to ride my bike everyday for nearly 2 hours ! It usually takes me 1 hour in the morning to ride to work and another hour in the evening to come home. I really enjoy riding my bicycle ! It’s something that makes you feel free especially when the traffic is congested. I admit that sometimes especially when it rains, it may be a bit difficult to ride for almost 15 km. But I’m lucky enough to have the possibility to take a shower at work ! That way I am always fresh when I start working (or “to work” ? what would be the difference here ?) ! Therefore, today, I spent some time tinkering my bicycle such as adjusting the brakes. Then I noticed that I had a flat tire on my rear wheel ! After removing the wheel from the bike and removing the tire from the wheel I noticed that the puncture was due to a piece a glass ! Consequently I changed the inner tube. Thanks in advance for the kind people who will take the time to correct my text ! Do not hesitate to contact me if you need anything French language related !
