2. job hunting will always suck (have yet to find one - if anyone knows anyone who needs a nanny/secretary/intern in any field/intelligent rising college senior to work for them/trophy wife, let me know)
3. facebook will always be distracting (lol)
4. I will always love curling up with a cup of tea and good book :)
Which is probably what I'll be doing tonight. I was incredibly unmotivated today to do anything because I was really lethargic for some reason (I don't think I slept very well last night). And so I don't think I want to go out tonight, I had a great night both Thursday and Friday night and I'd like to wake up in the AM tomorrow lol
anyways, I should probably back up a few days since I've been slacking on my blogging lately...
sooo... I left off tuesday night.
Wednesday... what happened on Wednesday... Oh, right. I got up and went over to Caitlin and Rebecca's to work on our presentation and then I went to the pool (didn't feel as good today... oh well) then I went home, wasted time lol and then went to my BC class from 4-6. I like that teacher alot better, we read an article about renting bicycles (which I know all about haha) and listened to a song. Then I went home and had dinner... I don't remember what we had but I think it was pretty good.
Thursday I woke up and didn't have anything to do till 1, which is when I have my class on the War on Terror. So I got up, had breakfast, wasted more time and made myself lunch to take to class. That class is really interesting, we talked about the background of 9/11 and the immediate aftermath. Then we broke into groups and debated different questions. My group's question was what were the lessons learned and not learned from 9/11. And we had a good discussion because there were lots of different opinions (there was a STRONG Obama supporter, she was crazy, and the other Americans and I were pretty moderate and then the international students were pretty much really liberal). After that I went home and tried (and failed) to nap, had dinner with Nicolas and then Anna came over before we headed out to La Java. La Java is a club, mostly for students, and it was just a dance party in a basement. There wasn't a cover charge, which was awesome, and there weren't even mandatory drinks (like how some clubs don't have a cover but you have to buy 2 drinks, which usually comes out to like $10) There were some sketchy old men, but it seems like that's just everywhere and as long as you're smart and keep your wits, they're pretty harmless. Anyways, so Anna and I went out there and met up with the IIEF girls and we all danced for a few hours and it was really fun! They played alot of American dance music (including some Spice Girls and Michael Jackson and others like that) and they had a stage and bars that you could dance on, so we all got on the stage and danced together for a few songs :) We went home pretty early (by European standards anyways - around 2:30 ish)
Friday I woke up late and literally read all day, lounged in my sweats and pajamas and read Pillars of the Earth (I'm mildly obsessed right now) then I did my little pseudo workout since I didn't go to the pool (squats, lunges, abs, pushups, etc) and I'm not that sore today- yay! And then I went and met up with Anna and her program to go out to dinner. We went to a Brasserie where they served different varieties of tarte flambée. I got one with garlic and bacon on it (sounds weird, but it was really good!) and then Anna and I went and got hot chocolate before going back to her room and watching Narnia. I missed movie nights, it was fun to do that! Then home I went and off to bed :)
I didn't sleep that well, I think this week has been stressful for me in an almost subconscious way, I've just had a lot on my mind and its been a little overwhelming. At the same time, there's been so much that's happening, its hard to focus on organizing myself, so I get a little panicky sometimes at night I think (you know, right before you fall asleep when you think about what you have to do the next day, I've had a lot on my mind then, but not really during the day, so I think it messes with my sleep). Anyways, woke up late today, lounged again (but productively!) and finished my presentation and started typing my notes from classes - that's my task for tomorrow, to finish typing my notes. Today was good though, even though I was lethargic. Raphael, the Bachtarzi's daughter (in whose room I'm staying), came for lunch and Jean-Michel made sushi. It was sooo nice to have some Japanese food, since I'm used to having it like every other day. And it was really good! He made it all and it was impressive! We had sashimi with tuna, salmon and scallops and maki (rolls) with different combos of tuna, salmon, avocado and cucumber. Then when the sushi was done, we had bread and cheese (obvi haha), salad and clementines. Then we finished with tea and these little pieces of layered chocolate, caramel and graham cracker crust (I think those were the layers, either way, it was sweet and scrumptious lol). Then I spent the rest of the day not doing a lot.. typing notes, procrastinating, and figuring out which celebrity I look like. The result that Mom and I decided was Kristin Kreuk::
And now, I think I'm going to go snuggle up with some tea and the Pillars of the Earth... yes I'm a loser, but I know you all love me :) bisoux!
PS. I was kidding about the trophy wife, but serious about the other job positions
PPS. Yes, I am a nerd for doing that celebrity look-alike thing, but let me know what you think of it...
