Learning Journal # 18 Day of Europe

At 9th of May – the day of Europe – all foreign students of our school were invited to listen to a presentation about Europe and its future politics. After that we were asked to talk about our country. But at this point I misunderstood the organizing teacher and prepared a few sentences about a specific monument instead about Germany in general. So I was unprepared, nervous and with the worst Portuguese in front of about 70 students. But I stammered a few words and I am still alive.
