week six, je sais...finally!

So...salut semaine six!!! Monday....so...thought id start the morning with a petit bit (HAHAHAHA) of tele....and I am pleased to report Gillett have launched their latest...now with twenty blades...promising the closest shave ever, (aka.will take your head off in one stroke...humm...) and guarantee you a hot chick corquine style girl...anyway...Donc....college...and then the girls came over to watch Elizabeth town.. (Hannah’s DVD) In English...je sais, je sais...

Gooooooooood morning, good morning!! (think ‘singing in the rain’ styly!!)-quite suitable, as we are in Normandy, and it IS raining. Alors...met a la college nice and early for a crit avec the second years....for some insane reason, I thought it would be okay for me to eat Jaffa cake. For those of you who don’t know, I can’t actually eat wheat or gluten... (Which is basically what Jaffa cakes are made of...) so...after being ill for a few hours, I had a really good tutorial with the head of photography...spent the rest of the afternoon writing and surfing the net. Totally awesome...which reminds me; Lizz has this really cool t-shirt with a picture of a toad on it with the slogan toadily awesome. Relevant. So...met Chris and watched ‘Elizabeth town’ (Again) but in French.

Alors...what can I report for today...it rained...and snowed. You know...one thing I have noticed here is that even if it is really hot, the French sill wear LOTS of layers...I’m not really sure why...I mean, they could swap their woollen scarves for light weight pashminas...non?? All I’m saying is...this time of year in Britain, I wouldn’t think twice about slipping on my flip flops...but I feel I may stick out just a tad against all the knee high fir lined boots.humm....so, I arranged avec the girls and Chris to go to the cinema to watch the film ‘Paris’. It was rather good, however...NOT at all funny...it was basically about this guy who had been diagnosed with cancer...beyond being fixed...and was a film about his last moments on earth, and how although Paris is a big city, lots of people are all connected. See. Told you...not funny. At all. It’s still raining.

SO...it’s actually Friday today...I’m hoping that you wont notice that I’ve missed a day out somewhere along the line...methinks the rain must have washed it away. Alors...college as normal. Mary and I booked a hotel for her rents and brought some food. (Highly interesting, I know...) The girls came over for dinner...I made sushi...was rather yummy...if don’t say so myself...and we decided to go our local okalagans. This was the fantastic night we met MIKA!!! Okay...not actually mika...his name’s Quentin....and co. What a laugh...anyway, we joined their table and had a good old chat till the pub closed...was just heading outside (as you do), and my heal broke off...( a very similar situation I had the misfortune to experience in London, just before a night out –luckily my cousin was there to break off the other heel in the middle of Victoria station), anyhow...so, we all had to walk to mine to change my shoes...eventually, we made it to the other side of town (I’m now dressed in my pink and brown skater shoes with my ‘clubbing outfit’ –looks great). We queue for about half an hour, only to decide that the club is plus cher...and head to one of the guys house to drink Russian vodka. Yum. Anyway, turns out this guy has a snake. An actual snake. There is about eight of us...we amuse ourselves by flicking through the guys mums calendar...rather racy naked men in seductive (French) poses. Phew....alors...Lizzi, mary et moi head home at about 5amish.

Saturday. Good mid afternoon! Its raining cords out there...Mary came over to offer me moral support for operation get refund for stupid boots that broke....the lady is all too happy to help...a credit note. Pas mal. bon...we end/ start the triumphant day by watching ‘lady killers’...however, I don’t have any speakers for my laptop, so we can hardly hear anything over the noise of the drunken loonies running up and down my road shouting obscenities..In...Wait a minute...English- bet they learnt that from Eminem. Hummm.....

Okay...so I’ve just spent today all on my own....all together...awwwwwwwwww....really productive, bien sur...typing up critical studies...emails and the like...and watched a little MTV. (all in French). Ermm...oh yes, I wrote up my French presentation (Tuesday) infor this week...should be a laugh. Oh...only took me all day to work out that it’s actually Easter Sunday. –which would make sense considering both mum and Nan text me saying happy Easter...which means tomorrow, I can start eating chocolate again. Ouiiiiiiiiiiiiii!!!!
