Interviews: Round Two

Last one-on-one sessions yesterday and today.  The proposals are mind blowing . . .  This stage of the freedom projects is always inspiring.  The sky is the limit but still, the projects are on paper and there is something concrete.  Something in our imagination that soon is going to take tangible shape.

• Jean Claude Killy 3' statue
• French stereotypes movie
• Daft Punk music video
• Comic strip of Theseus and the Minotaur
• Pompeii on Minecraft
• Latin in flying lessons

Proposals are rolling in . . .

. . . and a Calendar is shaping up.  French cuisine and sports seem to be some favorites again: cooking shows, samples, cookbooks, recipes, Tony Parker, French Baseball (!) etc.  We have some never attempted before topics like Top 10 French Fastest Cars and World War I planes.  In Latin the usual favorites are coming up again: Gladiators, Weapons, Mythology, . . .  and some new ones like aqueducts engineering, Bob Dylan music video in Latin and more.  Scrapbooks, models, posters, sketch ups, movies, meals will be joining the usual papers and presentations . . .  Can't wait.
Today:  Day 2 of 1 on 1 interviews.
