So my final is tomorrow, well, it's after midnight so it's in nine hours.

I would love it if someone could proofread the following story for me because I am sure I made mistakes. I hope someone out here speaks french.

Marie France s'est levée à 7:15 du matin et elle s'est douchée.

Ensuite, elle s'est habillée.

Après, qu'elle est descendée de l'autobus, elle s'est rencontrée avec ses amis.

Ils sont allés à la librairie ou (u with accent grave --sorry I don't know how to find it or how to spell it) elle a acheté une livre.

Elle a mangé du dîner avec son petit ami.

Ensuite, ils ont vu un bon film.

Plus tard, elle a marché à sa maison à pied.

Il était tard donc elle s'est déshabillée at elle s'est couchée.

My main concern is the word donc--it doesn't feel right and also I don't know about ses, son and sa.

Please help within the next 8 hours hehe. :P

Thank you. :)

isn't the past participle of descendre -> descendu?

i have no idea, it looks like you are way more advance than i am.

and i think "à sa maison" would be .. "chez elle" ?

you are right about the descendu! Thanks.

I don't get the second part so if you could elaborate on that that would be great. I didn't study at all the whole semester so I am trying to learn it all in the few hours I have left. :P

what french are you in? :p i'm in french 2.

we learned that "chez" means "at the house of..." so instead of saying "à la/ma/sa maison" you can just say "chez moi/elle/pierre/toi" i hope that makes sense, haha.

okay cool. Yes, that does makes sense and I am also excited about knowing what chez means--or at least one of its meanings.

I am also in French 2. I can't wait for it to be over.

Oh look at you! You're listening to french songs. My teacher would just adore you. :)
