Today I woke up and Madame had breakfast on the table. I had
a pain au chocolat with jam which I though was a little weird to have chocolate
and jam but it was good. I also had a kiwi and a banana. After that Madame and
I talked about the weather as we do every Wednesday because they are laundry
days! The French don’t use dryers so all the clothes are air dried or hung up
outside. It is a lot easier to get your clothes dry when it isn’t raining out! It
was supposed to rain today unfortunately so that wasn’t so good. I gave her my
laundry anyways and before leaving she told me she might make a cake today!
I left and went up to my history classroom. Thad was online
so I talked to him a little bit before class. That was nice. Then I had class
and had trouble concentrating, in fact all day I had this problem. Class wasn’t
very interesting today it was just describing a building that I had already
read about so I wasn’t too interested in it. After class I uploaded a bunch
more photos to Facebook of my trip last weekend. After that I watched the new
videos Spencer put up of him playing games.
I went and got a baguette and some oranges for lunch and then ate them
in the cave. I listened to music today and doodled. After that I decided I
should write my one page paper. So I did that and then went and talked to Grace
about our Paris plans. We figured out we wanted the 4 day Paris Pass and I also
bought our tickets for the Eiffel Tower. I also bought Cassandra and I’s
tickets for our 5 hour tour of the Dachau Concentration camp for Munich. We don’t
have a lot of time in Munich but really I just wanted to go to Germany and I
really wanted to go to a camp so I am accomplishing those two things which were
secret goals that I had for this trip. I am excited. I am really into World War
II/ Holocaust stuff so I think it will be an invaluable experience.
After that I went and printed out all of this information to
be sure that I have it ready to go this weekend because the school and
therefore printer will be unusable during the break. I am not looking forward
to Tuesday/Wednesday morning because I get back from Barcelona at 23h and have
to be AT the train station at 6 to go to Paris so it will be more like a nap
than anything else. Hopefully I tire myself out in Barcelona and get some sleep
on the bus. But it will all be worth it no doubt. I am excited for both. After
that I tried to look over some verb stuff for my Midterm but I don’t think it
really helped.
I went in to the final and because I had nothing to study
for it was nice but also frieghtening. She gave us a passage in English from
the book of Peter Pan and we had to put it into French. It was not easy. I got
really mixed up with the verb tense so I think there will be errors mostly with
that. Then we had an excerpt from something else in French that we had to put
in English. I am much better at going that way. So I think I did alright on
that section. I didn’t come out of the test feeling good but didn’t come out
crying so that means I must have done okay. I was the last one to finish about
20 minutes after everyone else and I went over time. I just kept getting
blocked on words and because I was slower it was awkward to ask the meaning of
words she had said before so I would write them down and then get caught off
track. But I did finish.
I came home not feeling super great but then I got to read a
bit before Paul came up. He played some minions and Temple run and then went
back down. Madame made dinner. I was sitting playing with paul and was like
dang it smells like Bacon… I miss bacon. Then when she put dinner on the table
it was green beans and BACON and ham! All things that I like!!! It was great. I
bet when I tell my friends tomorrow I had bacon they will all be jealous. It
was soooo good though. Then we had bread and cheese and then Madames cake with
Nutella. It is a srange cake because it isn’t exactly sweet but it is soft and
spongy like cake. Its almost like an angels food cake but not sweet like angels
food. It is good with Nutella though. It also has a strange smell that is
familiar but I can’t place. It tastes good though!
After that I got to talk to Thad which put me in a good
mood. J
Madame keeps getting game notifications on her phone that I am trying to figure
out how to turn off. The owl movie Legend of the Guardians is on TV and we have
been floating between other channels and that movie. It looks cute but also
like why is this movie about owls except to show how many different owls there
are. Madame gave me a pamphlet of the animals that are native here and it is
cool. Tomorrow is my last day of classes and then I am on fall break!!! Woo
hoo!!!
Also I figured out finally why there are sometimes random J's in my posts! They are smiley faces from Word that when I transfer them to here they turn into J's! Hahah! Mystery solved!
