Today, we had our first English class where I learnt that I had 740 to the TOEIC. I'm supposed to write a little about it, so let's start.

I liked this English course because I like when something is done in English. I had to write to my language biography. It was a little boring but I could fill the blanks easily. I don't really learnt new things except maybe some expressions like “How is it going” that I don't use because I never heard someone using them. What I found difficult was to tick the self-assessment checklist as I don't know myself that well. i warn you, it may be incorrect

Now that I have finished with my duty, I have to say that i already used three times the English language this evening. If it continues like that the whole week, I'll end up with a huge (really !!!) biography. So let me explain:

• Around 6:30 PM I went shopping (well, I need to buy some food). During the journey I was walking to the supermarket. So I started to think in English how I could create a 3D world using the software Ogre3D. It is one of my long-term project that I hope I'll be able to achieve.

• Later, I started to use Ogre3D as I was thinking of it earlier. So I read tutorials (in English of course) and because the program I wrote doesn't work, i asked for help on an English forum. The topic is located at this address: http://www.ogre3d.org/phpBB2/viewtopic.php?t=36338

• And because I discovered a bug in my Web Browser, I submitted it to the developers of that browser. Of course in English. Here is the address: http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=485511

It's around 10:30 and I don't think it's all for today yet. I hope this biography won't eat too much of my precious time. Goodbye.

update: I had to answer to my post to get help about Ogre. I think I'll help me much. No problem to read it and understand it.

update: I'm replying ... And I have some hesitations when I write “I didn't thought it could be a problem ...” meaning in french “Je ne pensait pas que cela pouvait poser problème”. To be clarified.

by the way, I got and answer to the bug report of my Web Browser, and I replied. I also created another bug report relative to keybindings in another application I use: ROXTerm: http://sourceforge.net/tracker/index.php?func=detail&aid=1811177&group_id=124080&atid=698428
