I'm catching up from yesterday's news today. Today was just school... nothing special. But yesterday I was social :D
First of all, the weather yesterday was beautiful. After a week of treacherous downpour, the French Riviera sun returned to us! The temperature was perfect; cool in the shade and warm in the sunlight. I went into town at the beginning of the evening. I met some friends on the Promenade sur la Mer, and we found a place to watch the end of the Jet Cup. I can't remember if I've talked about the Jet Cup in my past few blogs, but it is the world Jet Ski tournament. It is help in my town because some wealthy man began having it hosted here several years ago. There are always activities and interesting things happening here even though it's a small town. So we watched the end of the Jet Cup and then walked around the port for a little bit before catching our movie. As we started down the port, we saw the simple thing that would entertain us for a chunk of time before the movie. Someone had put soap in the fountain on the port making a wonderful fluffiness of fun! I wanted to jump in the fountain and play in the bubbles so badly, but I resorted to scooping them up with my hands. After a few bubble wars and an ice cream we went to the theater to see "Final Destination 4." The tiny theater can only play one movie at a time, so the selection is limited. "Final Destination 4" was exactly like "Final Destination 1." I think the dialogue was even similar which was good for me because I could pick up on more of the French. It was actually quite amusing to watch a poorly made, gory thriller in French. That's all that happened yesterday. I feel like it was really eventful but hanging out with friends doesn't sound as exciting on a blog.
I really like my friends, a lot. They're all so nice! I wish they were in my class at school, and then everything would be flawless. School is good though, and I see my friends several times throughout the day. In my English class we're talking about Woodstock. Haha, I thought it was a random topic but, nevertheless, interesting. It's nice to comprehend what's happening in at least one class. I did get really frustrated today with not knowing what was being said. I just can't let it get to me though. I know the language will come; it's already getting better. I find myself forgetting English words and thinking only French ones instead. I'm being impatient though.
Well that's really all. Not too much happening right now. I think I'm making plans for Wednesday so hopefully something exciting will come along, and I can give you readers something worth your time. Tuesdays are my long days at school (8:30-5:30) so now it's bedtime. Night to all!
