I remember having to do them. How many do you have to do? I think I had around 120 for french (but I did german as well, so it was twice as bad :( ).
Also, writing them out is half as difficult as learning them for the test

I had Spanish last year, had to write a 600 word essay in Spanish! I couldn't be bothered so i just put it through a translator
I'm not scared of Swine Flu, i believe that if i get bitten by a pig, it gives me special powers. :p

I got into Honors Spanish for next year today. I'm so happy :). But then again, that means really long essays and such, like BMWSauber5's.

You wont need to speak any German - the teachers have organised everything and tour guiders will speak english (comically though :p) - when we were in france he said 'abbey' like 'ababay'

The only religion stuff in our school is RE lessons (compulsory) which are bulls**. Actually said that in the middle of a lesson once which resulted in me being sent out until the end of the lesson which was at least half an hour and the teacher threatened to ring my parents. oh noes.
