Day 70 - Crazy day

French was fine today. During lunch, Hanna and I watched some videos on YouTube. The first was 70 Million by Hold Your Horses. It is so fun! Then we watched a video where an electrician plays a joke on his apprentice and gets a banana in his eye. It is hilarious! Then we had a lecture by Leilei Tian (not sure on the spelling). It was more of her journey in discovering God and the Church. She also played some of her compositions. It was very interesting. After that, a few of us went on an adventure to see some Incorruptable Saints. It took us a long time, but we finally found two nuns. It was really cool. They looked like wax-figures, but that was just because wax was put on their faces and hands to protect them from decaying. Oh yeah, forgot to mention that they are dead bodies. What happend is they were buried, then excavated (a hundred or so years late) and were still perfectly intact. Then they were put in the church. Pretty crazy stuff. We tried to find a guy in another Church, but it started raining like crazy, so we didn't search any longer. Instead, Chelsea and I met up with Hanna and went to FHE. It was fun. I can't believe there are only two more left! This semester has gone by so fast. After that, I just headed home and did some homework. So much fun ;)

Day 21 - Class, Louvre, FHE

Class was good today. I had French 102 and Religion. Not bad. After that, I headed to the Louvre with Haley and Chelsea. I didn't bring my SLR with me because it wouldn't fit, so I took my point and shoot. Wow. What a difference. I knew I loved my SLR, but not I really love my SLR! I didn't take any good pictures, but I'll tell you that I did see Charles I Dismounted by Van Dyck. That was pretty exciting. I love to see paintings that I recognize. After we chilled at the Louvre for a while, we headed out (well, we lost Chelsea and found Richard) to the Ricks' place. We were a little early so we went to see the Eiffel Tower. We saw it all lit up. It was pretty awesome. Then off to the Ricks'. We played a charade-type game for FHE and it was a lot of fun. I really enjoyed myself. And I was able to use their super fast internet to update my blog. So it all worked out well and it was a good night! PS Thanks to those of you who have been able to post comments. I reall...

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...
