Day 21 (AKA WEEK 4)
And so we begin week 4. Two weeks ’til home time people!!
I had an AWESOME time at Casino Night. It was so much fun, and hilarious. I was losing hardcore and then some man dumped all his chips into my cup. Unfortunately it wasn’t real money (actually that’s probably a good thing) and you used the money you accumulated to buy stuff at an auction. I only had 600$ and wasn’t really into sticking around to auction (because my numbers suck in French. i can only count to 30. Which is good, considering I could only count to 13 three weeks ago). So I stuck my money in Neha’s cup and Michaela, Jill and I went to the Castelet for pizza and giant cookies, then to the computer lab. (Cookie side note: the thing was bigger than my face. Honest to God, it was huge. And I ate it ALL.)
Today I woke up at 11 and slowly got ready for my day. Then Michaela and Jill showed up and invited me to the beach. In order to fulfill my dream of swimming in every ocean (well maybe not the Arctic) I went along. It was tons of fun, splashing in the frigid water. And stepping on the barnacles and tearing my feet to shreds. Then salt water and sand got into my feet (which look like they were attacked by a cheese grater) and the 10 minute walk back to school really sucked. But I found a First Aid kit and cleaned myself up. It’s weird, using my First Aid skills on myself. Like most lifeguards you never think you’re gonna need that for you.
Then Jill & Michaela & I walked (so much walking today OMG) to the lil Ice Cream place across the street. Jill went to do laundry after and Michaela and I walked around the festival being held on the grounds. It made me excited for this fall – I now plan on coming down to Bently in September to meet Mom and Auntie Val for the annual Farmers Market. I LOVE Farmers Markets!!!
Tonight is the Night of Terror walk in P’tit Bois. I was going to go, but now with a bum foot I am going to have a movie night with M&J.
Tomorrow is the second last Monday here!
