SO last week I all of these things planned. One of them was to make a traditional English meal at least once. I chose Sheppard's Pie after hearing about it most of my life, and luckily I found a recipe that had beef instead of lamb. It was delicious!! I was very impressed with the meal and wondered why I had been so scared to try it before. The next and completely embarrassing challenge was the TALK BRITISH for a day challenge which I did on Friday. Let me tell you by Friday morning I was dreading this task and it was WAY harder than I predicted. Plus it was super embarrassing. I had to make a trip to the bank, sign my new lease, go out for diner etc all in the accent. At least my dad found humor in it, but even he admitted that it was getting quite annoying, and it was. By noon Friday I wanted SO badly to just end the challenge there. I kept it up, but by 9:00 pm when we were out and eating I found myself going in and out of accent (so one time when the waitress would ask us something I had an accent, the next time I didn't). I was literally forgetting I was suppose to be doing it and by 10:00 the challenge was over- two hours before I said I would end it. I guess as much as I tried with this one- I failed even though I managed to completely embarrass myself the whole day. Saturday was 1920s party day so I taught myself very briefly the Charleston. Sunday however the Tea Party completely fell through, and by Monday night I still hadn't tried to learn a magic trick.
Therefore I suppose for this challenge it was like a mostly fail- kind of like Voldemort won this one.
Major thing I learned during this challenge is - I like doing accents but only for a VERY limited time.
