Good news! I found a job. It is irregular so far, but it pays the bill so... I am an interpret, French to English, English to French. It is very challenging (simultaneous translation), I meet interesting people, I get to eat buffets and I learn a lot about human brain (and Intellectual property rights so far).
My first conference went OK. After having to translate into French a Japanese speaker who could barely speak English, I feel pretty confident that I can do the job. Of course, it is far from being perfect: I have trouble speaking whilst still listening to what is being said, accents (especially French from Guinea) are a real challenge and I found it difficult to focus for more than 8hours. But it is a great experience, it get me out of the house and it is a JOB! Yeepi!
En français ça donne: j'ai un boulot!!!!!!! vous avez devant vous l'interprete 2.0 nouvelle génération. C'est plutot stressant comme boulot mais très interessant et je suis ravie de travailler, de rencontrer des gens et de gagner des sousous!
