Day 86 - Ciné and CDs

Today I wnt to see The Imaginarium of Doctor Parnassus. To my surprise and delight it was the original version and therefor in ENGLISH! I understood the whole movie for a change! That hasn't happened in a while. :D

Buying the ticket I realised I'd forgotten my passport at home (you get 5€ off if you have proof that you're under 26!), but luckily the guy at the counter accepted my school ticket-thing. I wasn't sure if he would, but he was nice enought to do so. Plus he was pretty hot. xD

I enjoyed the movie enormously. The storyline was a little strange and some of the others (I went with Pauline, Michou, Anotine A., Jordan, Céline, Anaïse and Marie V.) found it strange/didn't really understand. I think it was because it was in English. So did Jordan. But everyone seemedt to have enjoyed themselves, which is good.

Pauline finally got around to giving me the Tryo CDs I've been waiting for. I'm loving all four them! U'm just ripping them so I can listen to them on my iPod. <3>

Loving Tombé Mal and La Main Verte right now.

Day 79-85 - Long Break Yet No News

Imma start writing every week instead of every two days. I have too much going on during the week.

This week I believe I went to Pauline's on Saturday to finish off our herbarium. It turned out pretty good. Plus we had a lot of fun! I love her house (she was staying at her mum's). It's fantastically decorated, a little hippy-style, which is nice. I love the toilet, especially. When you get in through the door you have to walk down a corridor (ok, four or so steps) to get to the bowl. It's also beautifully decorated. Her mum decorated it. Tiles and everything.

Pauline's mum is very nice and kind and she's into bio and natural foods. She's also a fantastic cook. I had one of the best lentil stew while I was there! Trop bon! 

On Sunday I was just lazing around, doing nothing if I recall correctly (and I believe I do).

Monday was back to school and back to work, just like Tuesday.

On Wednesday after school Manon, Blondine, Pauline, Clémentine and I went to Carrefour (which, btw, means crossroads or junction!) to get some stuff for people (I bought a Burn energy drink). Afterwards we, Blondine and I, went Decathlon, a sports shop, to find weights for Blondine. We looked for ages but eventually found some suitable ones. I bought a skipping rope. :D

Next we went next door to another Decathlon. They have two next to each other. Strange, I know, but whatever.


There we found Heelys, the shoes with wheels on the back. I tried them on (obviously!) and attempted to roll forwards, failing miserably and ending up on the floor, unable to stop laughing.

We looked at rollerskates next, the kind with four wheels, two next to each other. I trued them on, too, but I couldn't make it work! It's physically impossible, I tell you! I also tried on another, normal, pair of rollerskates. I went around the shop, finally succeeding at something that day!

I had to try the Heelys on again as we passed them. I succeeded a little better this time and managed not to fall on my arse again! Pretty much soon after that we left the shop and went our seperate ways.

Thursday morning we had basketball, but the bus driver never showed up and we had to have the class in the basketball court in the middle of hte school. During break we had spectators. I forgot about them as soon as the game started. We won, we lost and we won again. I thought it was funny when the teacher told me to take it easy. I don't play rough, far from it. It's the other girls that keep bumping into me! I'm serious. I play by the rules (95% of the time anyway!). I loved it and I joined the school basketball team along with Lucile and Marion.

I don't know what got into Antoine V. today, but when he saw me this morning he pronounced my name in a way a Spanish person might, rolling the 'r' in both my names. It was hilarious. He continued for most of the day, well the double skip we had before the first test.

We played Tarots again for a change (not). I'm loving the game, even when I don't win.

Today we had two tests, French and Economy. I failed miserably in both. But the Economy teacher doesn't count my score, so I'm not graded and I think the French teacher doesn't either.

School ended at 1435 today, which I was happy about as I' still extremely tired! Imma get some grub in my tummy now, so until next week at the latest! Bsxx
