... tired and in need of rest. I'm starting immediately applying a new philosophy: think of you! so the morning is spent curiosing the nearby village, buying a few cards, making my mind on leaving for the next three days on a cataman for a short croisiere... seen that I've bought some new gears it's worth to put it on, don't you agree? And then the afternoon is dedicated to the 'dolce far niente', swimming and sun-bathing :-)

... I would have found over there... was there a place to stay, what I was going to do during next week? many questions, no answers... and then I met Emilie that happened to be my 'coloc' during all my stay... a very sweety girl! Cannot say the same about Roger, the director of the centre.. unfortunately not very useful.. nonetheless I got a place to sleep and Emilie seemed a nice girl, what she definitely is.

... some tension in the air though, Cecile was a bit negative and all Audrey ever wanted was to see Thomas. We hung out in the harbor for a while, having some beers, listening to a live band and actually went back to Ti Zouk before heading to Yacht. I spent some time with Vnanja, I really am going to miss him a lot!! Kat was demanding attention as usual and after a shile My Guy showed up.

... was playing her "I'm so young and don't know what to do in stressful situations"-act. She actually blamed saying it on the fact that three guys wanted to have sex with her and she was very stressed about it. I could have thrown my beer at her I was so annoyed. As Vanja said later on 'She needs to get burnt really really really bad'. Anyways the french girls were partying french style and Kat was over energetic probably trying to overcome ...

... with Matthieu. Now the whole situation was giving me a headache and I wanted to get out of it so bad so when Philippe bumped me into this other guy on the dancefloor it was like a sign. I just completely left the drama behind and started chatting up this random guy. And what do you know he was actually supernice, funny and intelligent, I couldn't have asked for more. So me and guy go outside to be able to talk and of course, within five minutes Kat comes running and is trying ...

... though, Mathieu was with me the entire day and I had fun with him, he really is a sweetheart : ) After work we just ended up chilling at his house with Kathy &amp; Cedos. C'est cool Raoul. : D Tuesday then, Kathy &amp; I went to Gustavia to get me a sim-card (new number 00590 690 13 01 99), got a lift with a really nice guy and had breakfast at a bakery.

We went the roadway back to Deshaies and enjoyed a lunch of fresh fish and stuffed christophene (a vegetable) at a local restaurant on the water.
