Arcantis Splendid Grenoble

... The airport was a different story and I was stung with a 20 squid bill for forgetting to check in online prior to arriving the airport. ****ers!!! To make matters worse, my baggage was 5kgs over limit and some angels appeared to help share to payload in 'carry on'. I was just hoping they were on the same flight. Later I found out they were the rest of the 'Snow Sluts' whom I hadn't met at this point. My adrenalin levels were pretty much peaking so I wasn't concerned ...

Today is the first day of my spring break...whoo hoo! I will be jetting off to Germany tomorrow morning to attend the 22nd Annual Satanic Stomp, a two day psychobilly festival in Speyer, Germany. I will be meeting up with two Salt Lake girls, Kristina and Mary. Where to after that? Who knows! I am ...

... Belgen passeren langs hier om te gaan skieen/snowboarden in de Alpen etc...Het was er dus zeer druk! Op de koop toe was het ook nog kermis in Grenoble waar zeer veel volk was..en dan nog de belangrijke match Grenoble-Lorient (ze stonden beiden op 35 punten en de winnaar was zo goed als zeker van het behoud want vanaf een paar ploegen achter hen, zakken ze af naar de tweede klasse..en die ploeg staat op 29 punten). Om Grenoble dus binnen te geraken, hebben we een half uur staan ...

Today, I have been on this planet 22 years. I cannot believe that this past year has flown by so fast. This is particularly strange after having Megan here last week. We met three weeks into freshman year, so we have been friends almost my whole college career. It was so bizarre to find ourselves discussing our upcoming graduation and our post-degree plans. In two months I will no longer be an undergraduate but the holder of Bachelor's of Arts....WTF.

... Blanc on the way up!!!! I did get to see it 10 days after it stayed in the clouds when Kristen and I were in Chamonix). Heaven on Earth. I am made to live in the mountains. I am always the happiest when in the mountains. I'm ending these two weeks in France with a family dinner to celebrate my Mom's birthday. I'll be back in Atlanta tomorrow night... (and I will fly from Paris to Atlanta with my Swiss friend Marina).

... de nodige afleiding door een goochelaar die trucs aan tafel kwam doen. Om zot van te worden..wat die allemaal kon! Niet te snappen. Na het eten, en eigelijk ook al tijdens het eten, werden er vanalle spelletjes gedaan zoals: iemand moet een dier nadoen, maar die persoon weet niet dat wij het juiste antwoord niet mochten zeggen. Dus stonden ze maar de hele tijd een kangeroo na te doen, terwijl je dan antwoorden hoort als 'een kikker?' 'een Chinees biggetje ...

Desde que Hedlena foi morar na Franca (final de 2005) que falamos no dia que eu iria encontra-la para podermos viajar. Teve épocas que este parecia um daqueles sonhos muito distantes, quase impossiveis. No começo deste ano ela foi morar um tempo em New Jersey e começamos a falar em nos encontrarmos em Nova York. Ainda bem que não deu certo ... porque a idéia original deu :) Fui encontra-la em Grenoble para dali ...

Je n'apprendrai rien à personne en disant que le temps est une chose étrange, instable, agissant parfois comme un petit étang qui stagne (il devient alors un marais, mélange étrange de choses pourries et de plantes qu'on ne trouve nulle part ailleurs), parfois comme un long fleuve tranquille qui coulerait d'un institution à une autre (travail, famille, patrie...), d'autres fois brusquement comme une chute qui ne sait de quelle hauteur elle se j ...

... decided : No hurry. I took only little roads through the country side, I went to Figueras to see the Dali museum. It cost 10 Euro to enter!! SO when i got there i said : i aint paying that kind of money. So i sat in the terrace outside, took out my guitar singing : La museum Dali - Ce ne pas gratuit - mais je veux entre - quand je sui ici .. Translation : the dali museum is very expensive, but i would like to ...

... for getting in touch with me, its very nice to have a few words of support, they mentioned that SOS has a very low profile in the UK even though it is the largest international orphan society, it's true because a lot of Swiss, German and Austrian people know SOS whereas most British people seem to give me a funny look which says something like "has he just invented this charity in some cunning beer money scheme?" Hopefully my next entry will be a bit more happier!! johnny
