genuinely I'm really excited for CLS because it's very much gonna be one of my darker works. has a lot of stuff about how neurodivergent folks can be made absolutely miserable and dehumanized but also there's the cycle of violence in there which I know a lot people shoot for but I'm going to be making a genuine effort to take it quite seriously. it's about a lot of things but in many ways it's about how people make themselves into monsters

CLS Spark

I'm not sure if I have anyone viewing my account that is in the US and in college but I still want to share my experience in case anyone else is interested!

Today was the final day of the program, we had our closing/graduation ceremony.

When I originally signed up I didn't see much online so I hope this helps inform other folks!

For starters, CLS Spark is a subdivision(?) of the Critical Language Scholarship. It is a free eight week long summer program of intensive language courses in Arabic, Russian, or Chinese for US college students.

For my specific program, we were parted with 大连理工大学. We had class Monday through Friday for two hours a day. Monday through Wednesday was a new lesson each day, Thursday was review, and Friday we would use the first hour for our weekly written and oral tests. Although it is for beginners, some of us did have a bit more knowledge of Chinese going into the program so we were placed into a slightly more difficult class so depending on how the placement test goes, there is a slightly slower option and faster paced one. For my class, we had homework Monday through Thursday. These consisted of a worksheet of our lesson from that day as well as an audio recording. The teachers were all very supportive and sweet too.

Compared to my other language course experiences, I did actually enjoy the structure of it a lot. I will mention all the activities in order and my experience with them!

听写/Writing Dictation - At the start of class the teacher would say 5-10 sentences depending on the script which we would have to listen to and write down. If the script was memorized, usually most of them were direct, if not paraphrased, passages while sometimes they were slight deviations but overall the same thing. After a while I personally struggled with this, I've been a lot better with reading than listening and like to have my handwriting a neat. Because of this I could process the beginning of some sentences but not necessarily the ending. She would repeat each sentence two to three times depending on the length.

读课文 - This one is pretty straight forward. We would take turns reading paragraphs or certain characters' lines. Although we were expected to go over them before class, this was also an extra way to really review the information while listening to other people as well. Questions - Finally, the teacher would ask us to put away the text and then ask us questions on the context. If you're like me, I have AuDHD so my memory isn't the best, it can be difficult. You could give good responses, but some of them do require a specific grammar that was used in the text so there are times where you would definitely need to really get down the grammar or memorize the text properly. If we finished asking questions for the entire lesson and had enough time, we would be asked questions somewhat related to the topics and themes in it.

Grammar! - This is basically a separate class. The first hour includes everything I mentioned above with the first teacher and then for the next hour we would review grammar. It was a lot more relaxed since we wouldn't necessarily have to memorize exact phrases. Our teacher would hold up a piece of cardstock with a grammar pattern then ask one of us to read it aloud. Afterwards she would ask us a question where we could give a free response using the grammar.

In both sections, we would also at times be asked what someone else said sometimes so that we could get extra practice in but also test our listening skills.

The written test consisted of about three pages of varying exercises. At the beginning there was always a portion for hanzi. This was about eight or so spots where you would write the hanzi corresponding with the pinyin written above it. After that there were some half filled short dialogues where you would fill in a response using a grammar or vocab word if it was next to it.

The oral test was a little silly but very open, I don't believe this was actually graded either based on everything I've seen grade wise. Essentially they would share three topics, usually all pertaining to a theme in our lessons for that week. Our teacher would then have a pick a random piece of paper with a number on it that corresponded to each prompt. These were pretty relaxed and if there were certain words you weren't aware of they would give some help if you did ask them for it. They would also ask some follow up questions here and there but usually all were related to what you were speaking about.

Next I would like to talk about culture classes! During my time in the program we had two options, tai chi and cooking. As someone who is a bit more body conscious I chose cooking. It was really relaxed and the teachers were really sweet. We would get our ingredients lists on Wednesday and have class during the second hour on Friday. The teachers were not professional steps so they made it very clear that we were all learning together and that mistakes are okay. With the ingredients, we reused a lot of the same ingredients so after the initial trip to the store you really wouldn't have to get much again aside from like 2-3 items. In my case, my ginger went bad eventually so I had to get more but aside from that I pretty much had all the same condiments throughout the program.

After the midterm, everyone was connected to a language exchange partner. The other classes had two students per partner and in mine we had one each. My partner was studying to be a Chinese teacher so I believe other language partners probably were as well. We met with our partners for half an hour every week.

Outside of the actual classes and stuff, CLS did offer a few things as well. In the weeks leading up to the start of the program, there were affinity groups held by program alumni. There were a couple of different groups ranging from stem majors to lgbtq to poc students. These basically just gave new students a chance to connect with other students and also get any worrying or curious questions answered. We also had a mid-program survey and afterwards and OPI test. Taking even another step back, students received a $750 stipend from the program. We also get access to an alumni network as well as competitive free eligibility for government jobs. I also opted in to receive academic credit but it is optional. We are also considered semi-finalists if we would like to apply for the following year. With all of that out of the way, I will just share my final thoughts on the program. I personally really enjoyed it. Although I definitely wasn't the best student I did improve tremendously in that time than I think I would have while self studying. I also got to really reflect on what learning methods work for me and what don't as well as what my strengths and weaknesses are with languages. Although it was a bit of a bummer, it did really show me how I can make more improvements with learning languages moving forward and that I am really grateful for.

Previously I wasn't really aware of much of the culture either. With how sporadic and random my language studies have been in the past, I didn't really sit down and have consistent and thorough exposure to the cultures of the languages I was learning. This really helped me see the importance of really taking the time to sit down and learn about them in addition to the languages. You get to interact with it both through the culture classes but also the actual language content. From my experience, a lot of dialogues are based off of workplace or social situations so you get more talking rather than background information. With this course, it was different so I really appreciate that I kind of received a double combo with it.

That is all I really have to say about it, if you have any questions please feel free to message me!

CLS débarque en ville pour célébrer son treizième anniversaire!

Au menu des agapes : lecture d'extraits choisis du recueil à trois têtes Laboratoire d'insomnies et séance de dédicaces.

CLS Poésie. Les trois. Un soir. Sous un même toit. Ne manquez pas cette occasion rare!

CLS. C'est réunis sous cet acronyme que Jean Coulombe, Alain Larose et Denis Samson choisirent en juin 2009 de se doter d’une plateforme immédiate de diffusion par l'intermédiaire d'un blogue. Près de mille poèmes plus tard (dont plus d’une centaine de vidéo-poèmes) et 200,000 visites en ligne, le trio souligne la parution en France de Laboratoire d’insomnies chez Les éditions Aux Cailloux des Chemins. Ça se fête!

Laboratoire d’insomnies n’est pas à proprement parler une anthologie, même si les textes proposés ont fait l’objet d’un choix chronologique et exhaustif de la part des auteurs, mais plutôt un paysage offert, une invitation au voyage.

Soyez des nôtres!

Here to get my Iseult lore. 3, 6, 16 and 17.

3. What is your OC's fatal flaw? Are they aware of this flaw?

Well, Iseult is uh, very flawed in many respects, but her fatal flaw is most certainly how she's accepted becoming part of the cycle of war and violence, how she's concluded that there is nothing she can do about it. Not only is she wrong, but it is this acceptance of the monster she becomes that really causes her decline and seals her fate. I'll leave you to decide what that means.

Subconsciously she's aware of this flaw, but she doesn't really view it as something that can be helped.

6. How easily could your OC be convinced to do something that goes against their moral compass?

Well, in terms of a moral compass, hers has been through the wringer and I doubt it would take much for her to follow really any order (I mean I can definitely think of a few horrendous things she'd object to but we'd be getting into edgy extreme territory).

In the past, however, she had more of a compass. The thing that got her to change was extreme, relentless pressure from her family and being forced into something horrific at a young age (aka going to war at 17) which really wore down her willpower to be principled.

16. What is your OC's pain tolerance like?

I believe I answered this before, but it used to be quite low and she was highly sensitive to loud and higher pitched sounds. Technically, she still does have some sensory issues but she's dealt with pain with overexposure/numbing and an unhealthy willingness to ignore her own distress.

17. What is the worst thing you have put your OC through story-wise?

Other than spoilers, definitely her experience during the war in Ardámuine. She was sent off to a scorched earth war at 17 and saw innocent civilians and her friends die horribly. She still sometimes mentally returns to it when she fights.
