England Day 2

So, today we had orientation. It was a long day and we talked about cultural differences. Got my box of textbooks and a nice letter from Mom. Thanks mom ( :
Got VERY familiar with the underground. My roommates and I think we're experts now. We went and bought towels and a bathmat and a laundry basket for our apartment!
We got a list of cultural activities and I signed up for ALL of them :D
Sightseeing tomorrow.

Paris!

Hi Everybody! I'm safely to Paris. Been awake since 5 am Sunday morning. It is currently almost 5 pm here (almost 7 am CA time)
I have been appointed the translator for the entire group, as the only person who knows any French and have had many strange conversations with people of different nationalities and grasps of the English language. I know way more than I thought, but it's still nervewracking ( ;
(((Dad, I also talked to a Lebanese couple who sat next to me on the plane. I said "bittit kalimya aarabi?" and they got excited, but then that's all I could say! ( ;)))
I am so tired, to my bones. No sleep. Listened to my story on tape on the plane and watched "the last airbender" and "just wright".
Paris is huge! And confusing. The group of us got lost and trudged and trudged. It would have been exciting if we weren't so goshdarn tired.
I literally walked right by a patisserie on a hidden street that belongs to a great chef, Lenotre. I ate a delicious treat ( :
Also ordered beer and food for everyone else at a cafe. Pretty exciting stuff.
Going on a tour in about 40 minutes.
Goodnight loved ones!
Ps. Trying and trying to upload pictures, but the internet is a little too slow at the moment. Will soon! ( :
