c'est pour les jeunes

the weather today was amazing! i went to the beach today before class. just went by myself and read a little while poss getting a tan. the rock beaches are pretty cool because i dont get covered in sand, and neither does anything that i have with me. but it kinda sucks when i have rocks jabbing into my back haha. ups and downs of life i suppose. it is a pretty relaxing life, i never have hw to worry about.

ensuite i met nathalie and stephan to walk to class. omg the colline is killer when it is warm and i got sweaty. in class, i daydreamed. we never do much of anything. during the second half of class i got some written and reading comprehension stuff back. my prof thinks i will do fine on the harder exam, the certificate pratique, which i need to take to get credit for my minor. then we were doing some worksheets and i was lazy and really didnt feel like doing them. its hard to get back into the swing of never doing anything after having a 4 day weekend of also not doing anything hahahahaha. so i was just sitting there and Mme loung came over and was like "oh erin you look tired. if you are tired, its ok you dont have to do the work. you are almost done anyway. you can do it thursday if you want." she was totally serious haha. so i just chilled and talked to people. i probably wont go to class on thursday.

me and christine went over to jean medecin and into fnac (the french best buy pretty much) and i bought the third book of twilight, "hésitation"!!!!! i had to go ask the lady if they had anymore because the third one wasnt on the shelf with all of the "hits". guess the rest of Nice is on the 3rd book too. so i went and asked and she was likeee "eehhh en français?" and i was like f is my french really that bad? so i told her yes and she seemed suprised haha, and then told me that it was in the section "pour les jeunes" behind the section of adult books with the green sign. so i read kids books, whatevz, i do what i want...and yeah its in french dammit. im super cool. i gotta watch the movie soon. im totally hooked. then i bought some clothes

claire called later and she said she was gonna be late, so we should achetons some pizza. went to the little van on the corner a few blocks up and got some. its sooo good. ate pretty much all of it. i got a thonina pizza, with fromage, tomate, thon, et origin or something. the english translation under it was pretty good "cheese, tomato, tunny, oregano". tunny hahaha made me laugh ok, tunny instead of tuna. i love all the attempts at english signs around here : "open all the days", "tunny", "lady night" "open non-stop" (which i would take to mean open 24/7, but then their hours are like 11 to 4, but maybe that is just me). the best was the suggestions sheet that we had at the campsite, i wish i had written it down, our suggestion was to rewrite their english translation. they should probably just do it in french, we would have understood it better. k im done for today, gotta go finish planning out how to get to and from airports over break.

3 days till daniel is here!!!
