... much as I care for them, and that in itself makes being here priceless.

These last few weeks have I have gotten happier and happier which is hard for me to believe. Not because I am surprised that I am happy, but because I am surprised that I am happy with certain things in my life that would normally "ruin" my attitude. You know that people say not to question happiness but I find myself totally baffled at the fact that despite negative ...

... res. Déjà, on voyait que les rues étaient pleine de gens.

La fête des lumière est un festival toujours autour du 8 decembre (pour dire : MERCI MARIE...lire sur wikipedia si vous etes interessés). Partout dans la ville, on retrouve différentes illuminations sur les batiments ou autres jeu de lumières préparés par différents artistes. C'est très jolie mais ya bcp bcp trop de monde...

... t think it rained the whole time I was there, which made a welcome change from the UK!

Speaking of the UK, I've also just got back from a weekend in Bath (yes, I know, packing a lot in to my last few weeks here!). It is a lovely town, if expensive, and made lovelier by the fact it's Xmas time and all the lights and decorations were up. Anyway, Bath will have to wait for another blog as I need to go and do some work.

Looking forward to some hot weather soon,

... naturally at a point in your life. I don’t know the answer to that question but I do know that I am happy with the opportunities my future holds for me and I am grateful to have the capability to learn and understand things about life that some people to figure out til their 40, or sometimes never.

……….

So this was a bit of a rambling blog, not so much detail about my daily life. But to update things are ...

... that haven’t happened in the show yet. But so far I am enjoying getting to know the characters the way the author originally created them as and am comparing it to the shows adaptation of it. I have already laughed out loud at some of the jokes and have found expressions that only exist in French, which leaves me to wonder what they are in English.

So I suppose this blog is about me being content with the way things are. As I sit here ...

... Dr. but I am not aware of cells having emotions). After talking to Jimmy the last few days and he being the person I tell when I am up or down, he was happy to hear I was picking myself up (literally: and I will get to that hilarity a little later) and not being so, well, “emo”. I told him I was feeling better after just talking and having a more positive attitude about things in general.

This morning I woke up. It was October 20th ...

... and aperatifs (chips and stuff) and began playing card games and listening to music. The night was a ton of fun. We all got to know each other a lot better and we all get along so well. Laughing is the main event. It was a long night ending at 5 am.

Saturday Maca, Heinar, Manu and I hung out together. We had a lot of fun today too. We made pizza for lunch and played that game where you have a paper on your forehead of ...

Finally a good night's sleep,thanks doc for the ambien you gave me because I needed to sleep well just one night! After yesterdays debacle I opted for a decaf espresso this morning.Thank god for them having it because I do enjoy the coffee I just can’t handle the caffeine. It makes me all anxious and jittery and I feel like I need to move, move, and move! So what is on the agenda for today? Well we are going into Lyon to get a little peek at my school and then back to the house for ...

Today was one of the first nice days of the year. We decided to get out and explore Parc D'Or in Lyon. This is one of the largest metropolitan parks in Europe. It has everything: hiking trails, bike rentals, ponds, lakes and a zoo. It was a great day and we are ready for spring!

OMG. We've slept in until 10:30! By the time we roust ourselves, shower, etc, it is lunchtime. Back to our lunch spot, this time to Espace Carnot. Ed had a really nice St. Marcellin salad, with slices of toasted baguette and melted cheese on it and thin slices of potatoes. I had the menu du jour with a greek salad and a luscious supreme de volaille, a roasted boneless chicken breast with the drumette of the wing attached ...
