les reunions

'Twas the night before Chinese New Year, and all was quiet in the house of Kang. Both Jeremy's parents were sound asleep, presumably so after a very delicious and satisfying reunion dinner.

However halfway around the globe, at that very moment, Jeremy was rushing to complete his presentation slides. For while his parents had a reunion dinner, he was also going to have a reunion, but of a different kind. For you see, reunion means "a meeting" in French, and the meeting that he was going to have later on in the day was just as about the worst one could have. No, of course I do not mean a rendezvous with St Peter, but a soutenance orale, which is a graded presentation in front of a jury.

Noted for his impeccable Franglais and uncanny ability to talk-cock-sing-song out of awkward situations, would he be able to survive this latest encounter with his arch enemy, Monsieur Vignat?

For the sake of his Atelier d'ingénerie module, I hope all goes well for him later, and may Monsieur Vignat call in sick at school today.

And for all of you back home, bon appetit, and don't forget my share when I get back!!! =D
