Day 15 - Classes, Zara, and Not-so-Simply Market

After much contemplation, I have decided to switch from 201 to 102. Though it would be great to get the 201 credit that I need for my major, I don't want to stress myself out a ton to get it. You know? Anyway, so I will let you know tomorrow how the class goes.

After classes, a few of us (Shaina, Hanna, Courtney, and I) headed over to Zara. It is like a department stores with low prices. I browsed over the clearance/soldes rack and found some pretty cool stuff.
I have been wanting a feather headband for forever. Finally I found one for a good price! So now I have an awesome headband and I got it from Paris :)
They had many cute skirts there but I limited myself to one. I really like it and it has side pockets. I adore skirts with pockets. Seriously.Then I found these cardigans on the double clearance rack. I love them!It is really hard for me to take pictures of myself, so this is the best I have. I really like this cardigan. I didn't take a picture of the other one, but I am actually wearing it right now (I know what you are thinking. Why doesn't she just take a pic, download it, and put it on? Well, with my internet being so picky, I'm just going to go with the pictures I've already dumped in my computer. I want to utilize the internet while I can).

After that, we all went our separate ways home. When I got to Boulogne (that's where I live), I went to the local grocery store, Simply Market, to grab some food. This was the third time I'd gone there. The first time, a security guy accused Rosalie of stealing. The second time, an employee treated me like an idiot. This time, the security guy that accused Rosalie followed me around the store. So both Rosalie and I have decided to walk a little further to the larger grocery store in town. I do not want to go back to Simply Market.

More tomorrow :)

My sister Rachel had her baby boy Benjamin earlier this morning. This is the 19th time I've been an aunt. And I still absolutely adore it. I get just as excited with each birth. He's a new life. He's a miracle. I love children. With Benjamin and Abi, his oldest sister. I love her face in this one! Isn't he just adorable? Look at that hair! Oh I love him :)

Day 54 - Dernier Jour

Last day in Paris! I can't believe it. I'm sure gonna miss this place. Ali, Shamra, Mckell, Claire and I headed out to the city this morning. First stop was the Opera house. I finally got to see the inside this time! Beautiful. We had some fun :) Then we went to Berko's, the wonderful cheesecake place. It wasn't open and it was 11:35. We thought they wouldn't open until 12 but as we were sitting there waiting, they opened the doors! Yay! I got creme brulee cheesecake. Oh it was divine. This is one of the things I will miss most about Paris! Love it. Then Claire and I went to the Jewish museum. It was pretty interesting. I couldn't take many pictures. Then off to the Promenade Plantee. It was a really beautiful walk. I like this flower. It's weird. Then we walked back to the metro. It was quite a long walk so we were very tired! We went to the Louvre for a little internet time. Afterward, we went to Laudree to get a present for Greg and Martha. Then back to t

Day 55 - Home

I'll miss the metro, I'll miss the city, I'll miss the museums, I'll miss the tourist attractions, I'll miss the people, I'll miss the photo opportunities, I'll miss the rush. I'll miss this place. I got up early this morning, finished packing up, ate breakfast, then headed to the Roissy bus with Elisabeth and Ali. Who are, by the way, angels! I am so grateful to them for helping me. I absolutely could not have done it without them unless I got a taxi. And even then, I'm not sure. Once on the nice Roissy bus, I slept a little bit. It was good. SO much better than taking the RER B, which is what everyone else took who was on our flight. And it ended up being cheaper. Then we finally got to the airport. Elisabeth checked my duffel (thanks again!), which was fine on weight. Then I checked my large bag, except it was 4 kilo over. If I wanted to pay for that, it would be 150 euros. No thank you. So I had to get some stuff out of it. They gave me a AirFran
