aaand i'm back

so i'm back again in gay paris. i've been back just under a week. it's pretty warm here right now. rainy and shitty. it's supposed to get up to around 15 degrees tomorrow and the next day. pretty much the same weather that i left in canada.

the flight here was pretty good. kevin had a neck pillow, which i was very jealous of, but i had a window which didn't work out as well as i hoped when it came to sleeping. the flight was a good three hours shorter than when we flew back to canada. that was glorious. my in-flight meal was so terrible. i think it was cereal? anyway, it was warm and odd and all around unpleasant. we got back into our flat around two pm thursday. we all made pacts that we would not nap and try to fix our sleeping patterns. i tell you, trying to stay awake with nothing to keep your focus was one of the hardest things i've ever done. i did it though. missy and kevin failed.

i went to work friday. i didn't have any classes for three hours because one teacher is always scheduling tests when i'm there. i have seen one of her classes since i've started this job. she must only give them tests and never teach them anything.

this week is pretty busy. tomorrow and friday i have a lot of class to make up for the time i missed being home. i am in love with my travel mug. it keeps me caffeinated all day so that i can stomach the terrible french children. alright, they are not that terrible. just french.

this weekend i did not even leave the apartment. that is quite impressive i think. my goal was to fix my sleep pattern and i think i did, although i may have ruined it again just in time for my longest day ever.

so not really too much to report here. no real funny stories as i haven't really done anything exciting but work. we are trying to organize the rest of our trips. we realize now we're going to have to be a bit more realistic and selective when it comes to planning things. we should get on it soon though.

so that was my last week in paris. if you stayed awake throughout that bout of thrilling storytelling then i'll have more in store for you the next time.
ciao
