Oral class & the other boleyn girl

I always enjoy my oral class pretty much because our material is practical and interesting. Above all, the teacher is really good and very nice to us; she is kind of like our friend. Though she always likes to make some fake affairs between the other male classmate and I, knowing she is just joking I don't feel offended or angry. Every week, she teaches us five slangs and makes us use them to make up a weird story or funny questions for each other. When it comes to midterm exam or final, her exam is always the most favored one because we only need to prepare a short conversation with acting (about 2 minutes). It is always a favor for us during a busy-taking-exams week.

Today she treated us 8 boxes of pizza as a good ending of teaching us for one year. We had tasty pizzas and a movie : The Other Boleyn Girl this afternoon. The movie is about Henry 8th, the king of England, and the two sisters Anne and Mary. At the beginning, Mary is forced to bed with the king because Anne offends the king. Mary always wants a country life more than a life in court but she falls in love with the king and gives birth to a son. However, Anne is exiled to France due to her adultery with a married Duke. When Mary has to lie in bed for the safety of the baby, Anne comes back England with her well-changed manner and seduces the king.
Anne even makes the king abolish the queen and crown herself as a queen. But she fails to have a son as an heir and the king grows hatred toward her for she made him break up with the Rome Church. In the end, Anne is executed but Mary lives happily with a man who loves her.
