october updates

HI all it's been a while since i wrote something here .. my depression hasn't been good for months now and i'm wondering when it will be better . i have sleepless nights for a while now and i'm so worried as i can't take over medication . never say to me that fighting against depresssion is a question is strengh and wish ..it's just too hard to explain but it's much more harder to deal with that it is said or that people think Usually i spend this time reading but this year i have been unable to read because i had a lack of concentration ..i remind you that english is my second language and that it's sometimes hard to read in english .. I had huge anxiety and panic crisis and insomnia ..so i hardly do something .. summer went by so quickly that i didn't have time to enjoy it .. this year i'm having my english classes in a new association as i have been decived by my former place universite permanente .. at the universite permanente they cancel the CAE class that i really wanted to take and i only had a conversation class .. this class was in fact a reading class as the teacher asked us to read an article and ask for the vocab and we quite never talked . SO i was sad to have spend €150 just to read a page once a week : i can do this at home with a book .. so this year i'm in an association with the ccfb in nantes where i have 2 classes : a normal class to review all the grammar rules what i really needed and a real conversation class where we talk on a theme for one hour .on both class we are only 10 which is really good ..i just miss my cae class .. i wanted to start again german but it appears that i'm too tired to do another activity in addition to my swimming trainings and my english classes so i have to cancel it .. my heart wants to do something and my body say no ..so it's a huge battle inside me .. so i'll try to read again as soon as i can .. best valerie

I gave 4/5

Lara has always had a big imagination ..But this time is it true . While she was at her great Aunt Sadie funeral ( she was 105) she heard a voice “ where is my necklace ? “ but the problem is that only Lara heard it ..This voice keeps following her and then she discovered that in fact it is her great Aunt Sadie at the age of 23 . Lara life is a disaster : her boyfriend Josh just broke up with her , her collegue just let her alone at her work without any explanation ..her parents believe that she has a stable life and she doesn’t know what to tell them now . How will Lara react to her new ghost Sadi in her life ? How will this will have an impact in her life? Will she succeed in helping Sadie finding her necklace again ? What will she discover about her family ? It was a good book but not my best from sophie kinsella. I loved the story even if sometimes I found it a little long but it was as sophie makes them a funny one ..Lots of imagination as usual .. I really enjoy how things went and how Sadie and lara learn to love each other .. Good book
