    My investments this year In order to improve my listening, I watched many videos on the website Youtube. I really liked the videos by “prince EA” which talk about different topics of the news. After each video I watched, I wrote a little summary of it. Also, I listened to English and American music with the English subtitles and looked for vocabulary that I didn’t know. I made a list of all the vocabulary (about 25 words per week). Then, to improve my oral, I chatted with my classmates at each session. By participating in three workshops (harry potter, series and films, streaming), I was able to discuss with them. I gave my opinion and participated in debates and discussions. I also created a workshop which is the evolution of our planet. I was able to present my project and at the same time practice speaking in English. Furthermore, I created a debate in link with my project, by the question : 'Do new technologies have an impact on the environment?' I think that I was more invested this second semester than the first one. Indeed at the beginning of the year I had many difficulties to communicate in English. I had a lot of trouble to find my words and formulate sentences. Moreover, I have always been more comfortable to write than to speak in English. Therefore, I focused this second semester on working on my understanding by watching videos and on improving my oral expression by participating in workshops. As the first semester, I really enjoyed the workshops because it’s a very interactive and fun exercise. The atmosphere was very pleasant, because nobody was judging the others, on the contrary and everybody seemed very invested. I appreciate a lot the organization of the CRL. At each session I have written what I did in the feedback. Thus, I could see the evolution of my work and find new ideas for the following sessions. During the two hours I communicated with my classmates and the teachers. To my mind, the only downside of the CRL is the fact that it is sometimes a little too noisy. I am proud to see my improvement because I had many difficulties at the beginning of the year. I know that I can't speak English perfectly, I still have gaps. Now, I have to continue my efforts. My goal is to continue watching regularly English videos and series during the summer vacation to be ready for September. For future L1 students, I recommend them to work their English regularly and seriously in class but also personally because English is an essential language nowadays.

    Need a correction for an exam please ! For this second semester, we had to choose a theme in order to prepare a project. Personally, I chose very quickly the theme of the environment. Indeed, the environment has a link with my studies in biology. I thought that it would be very useful to me to choose this theme, given that I could learn new scientific vocabulary that might be necessary to me later. I also choose to work on the environment because it is a very topical subject, especially with climate change and pollution. Being part of the new generation, I am all the more affected by this phenomenon. Finally, I wanted to work on this subject because I have always been interested on the environment. During this semester I work my English by different things. On the one hand by doing various exercises, listening, lessons to improve my English. And on the other hand by realizing my project on the environment, by creating a quiz and a poster. I approximately worked English about four hours per week. In order to improve my listening, I watched many videos on the website Youtube. I really liked the videos by “prince EA” which talk about different topics of the news. After each video I watched, I wrote a little summary of it. Also, I listened to English and American music with the English subtitles and looked for vocabulary that I didn’t know. I made a list of all the vocabulary (about 25 words per week). Then, to improve my oral, I chatted with my classmates at each session. By participating in three workshops (harry potter, series and films, streaming), I was able to discuss with them. I gave my opinion and participated in debates and discussions. I also created a workshop which is the evolution of our planet. I was able to present my project and at the same time practice speaking in English. Furthermore, I created a debate in link with my project, by the question : 'Do new technologies have an impact on the environment?' Finally, to practice my English writing, I have read many articles and then made a summary. I presented the articles to my classmates each time. I have also made a written expression which was a speech about the climate change. To produce my project, I made a quiz and a poster showing the solutions to save our planet. To prepare this quiz I used several websites and my knowledge.

    Les Cajuns

    La langue appelée "Cajun" est utilisée par un groupe de gens qui habitent dans l'Etat de la Louisiane. Ces gens descendent des français-canadiens qui se sont installés au sud de la Louisiane, après qu'ils aient quitté l'Acadia, au Canada. Leur langue est le francais, mais le francais du septième siècle avec beaucoup de mots et d'expressions idiomatiques tirés du anglais et l'espagnol. Les Cajuns ont fait face à beaucoup de préjugés au fil des ans et ils vivaient souvent à l'écart de la société anglophone. Aujourd'hui, cela a changé. 200,000 personnes parlent le cajun et la culture, la langue, et surtout la nourriture--tous sont célèbres aux États-Unis. Les plats traditionnels-comme gumbo et jumbalaya-sont très populaires, et même l'université de la Louisiane les réclame- sa mascotte est "The Rajun' Cajun."

    Pensées

    Simultanément je me sens satisfait avec le rythme progressif de ma vie -- qui comprends divers tâches domestiques, chacun nécessitant exécution minutieuse et méritant le respect -- et anxieusement insatisfait avec le fait que mes ambitions semblent avoir perdu leur taille auparavant stratosphérique.

    À ce point l'année dernière, j'essayais de toucher les limites de ma propre productivité et de ma capacité à atteindre. Chaque jour était une course contre le montre. J'ai écrit une liste et je n'ai pas avant d'avoir terminé.

    À un certain point, la rigueur devient auto-destructrice. Mais on pourrait en dire autant de la léthargie. La mienne est une personnalité que nécessite un grand projet. Sans projet, il n'a rien pour diriger son énergie residuelle vers.

    Arbortion nowadays The SC is clearly in favor of pro-life people by this decision, which is contradictory since the Court recognizes the right to abort at the same time. This Supreme Court decision last year raises the question of whether the Supreme Court will not overturn the "Roe versus Wade" case in the future and ban totally the right to abortion? First, the judge Anthony Kennedy announced in June 2018 his retirement. And Brett Kavanaugh replaced him. Kavanaugh is a close friend of Trump, he is very conservative and pro-life. So today, on 9 judges of the SC, 5 are conservative. So the majority in SC is conservative and these judges can largely endanger the law that protects the right to abort. In addition, since 2019, 14 states have signed laws to limit access to abortion or measures that encourage not to abort. For example, in May 2019, the Alabama Senate passed the most repressive anti-abortion law in the United States. A doctor who performs an abortion could incur 99 years in prison. The purpose of the authors of this law is to go to the Supreme Court and overturn “Roe versus Wave” case. Thus, it would have the effect of prohibiting the right to abortion throughout the United States. This text has been denounced by Amnesty International, because forbid abortion in all the USA would be a real regression for women's rights. Amnesty explains that the consequences of the anti-arbortion law in Alabama will be disastrous because on the one hand it threats the lives of pregnant women and on the other hand doctors and other health personnel may be criminally prosecuted for doing only their work by giving care.

    NEED A CORRECTION PLEASE GUYS !!! In the United States, the right to have an arbortion exists since the case « Roe versus Wade » in the Supreme Court, in 1973. The Supreme Court ruled that the right of abortion for a woman is part of the right to privacy, which is protected by the Fourth Amendment of the Constitution. However, it is possible to have doubts about the persistence of this right and there are reasons to believe that this right could be prohibited in the future. Indeed, since the election of Donald Trump in 2016, many rights are threatened, especially when these rights concern women. This is explained by the very conservative position of the president on many subjects. The article “The Supreme Court's big arbortion hypocrisy”, published in “The Washington Post” in 2018 shows very well the endangerment of the right to abortion for women since the last few years. While the right to abort is considered as a fundamental one and that all women can have access to it, the Supreme Court decision in 2018 seems very conservative as it protects centers for anti-abortion. The Supreme Court approved the actual practices of these centers which hold a more religious and political discourse, than a real medical discourse. The decision of the Supreme Court does not appear fair between the anti-abortion centers that can do what they want and the centers that practice abortion, which are regulated. There is a sort of discrimination by the SC against abortion centers, which may seem very surprising from the highest instance of the USA. So the real threat can therefore affect the right to abortion, but it goes further because there are other rights which are endangered by the Supreme Court. In fact, the freedom of expression of the legal centers practicing abortion are the only ones who must recite a special text imposed by law. And moreover, the access to the right to health for all is also threatened. Depending on where you live, you will be more or less likely to have access to objective doctors. Acutally, this can be explained by the fact that the Christian religion is deeply rooted in politics in the United States. In principle there is a separation of Church and State as in France, but in reality religion is very important in political life in the United States, which may explain the freedom granted to anti-abortion centers by the Supreme Court. While the California law wanted to regulate antiarbortion centers, which make sense, the Supreme Court prefered to overturn this California law.

    Le médecin dans la société

    Le médecin, qui est-il aujourd'hui? Qu'est-ce on attend de lui? Que ce soit un bon professionnel ou plutôt une personne sympathique et gentille ?

    Je pense, que le médecin c'est un professionnel, sans doute. Avant tout Il doit être brillamment formé. De plus, il est préférable qu'il ait suivi des formations supplémentaires pour être au courant de l'agenda international dans son domaine.
    Je suis sûre que dans un métier pareil la formation joue un rôle primordiale.
    D'un autre côté, il me semble, que la société a également besoin des médecins sympathiques. Quand on arrive à l'hôpital avec nos douleurs, on a peur et on a besoin d'être consolé, d'entendre : "Ce n'est rien, ne vous inquiétez pas ".
    Je pourrais citer un exemple de ma vie. J'avais des symptômes très inquiétantes. Lorsque j'ai été déposé à l'hôpital, je ne sentais pas des douleurs, mais la peur et l'angoisse. Les médecins se sont mis à faire des analyses et très vite il m'ont annoncé que ce n'était pas si grave. Ça m'a aidé de à me calmer Là, j'ai réalisé que les mots, l'attention, ça a été plus important que l'examen fait.
    Pour finir, je pense qu'il est essentiel qu'un médecin ne soit pas seulement un bon docteur expérimenté, mais aussi la une personne chaleureuse et attentive. En cas d'une de maladie, très souvent on a besoin que de cela.

    A voluntary project Doing a voluntary project would be for me an incredible experience I think. According to me, there only are advantages in participating in a project. First, I would really like doing a voluntary project, to work as a team for a common project. Many kinds of projects look interesting, but I would love to do a project related to children or their education. My aim would be to offer my time for a project, while discovering new horizons. Indeed, I think that opening up to the world, to other cultures, is very interesting and important nowadays. Then, my desire is to discover new people from different cultures and backgrounds. Finally, I would say that because I am a law student, participating in a voluntary project would allow me to have another vision of the world around me and the society in which we live.

    Me as a slave... This date, this date wich married my life for ever. One day of June 1850 of the coast of Sierra Leone, , a horrible, an inhuman thing arrived at me. My name is Cinque and I am going to tell you my story. It was in June 1850, a day ordinary as the others, suddenly peole captured me. I didn’t have time to blow that I was already bound with a rope. I began to worry. I saw around me, people having undergone the same fate as me. Some cried, others remained strong. The whites who had captured us, took to uss on a beat called « The Amiskad », we were crammed. When we announced me I will be sold at Auction, I burst immediately into tears. I said to myself that I would never see my family and my friends again. I was never so anxious of all my life. I refused my fate, I didn’t want to be used as a labour force and I was determined to see again my family. This is why I combined courage and force to escape. My act was raised, I would have been able to die at any time. Thanks to president Lincoln, we all found our independance. Even if this experience was awful, I was able to discover in me a new man. A man persevering, who has never given up and who it’s beaten for him and for his family.
