So it's been almost two whole months.

I'm sincerely sorry to people who actually care or like to read about my silly little life taking place here in France, so please accept my apology.

Also this might be riddled with spelling or syntax errors, because it's been a really long time since I've really written anything of this length in English.

HERE GOES NOTHING: So in the past two months I have done a fair amount of things, all of which I don't forcibly remember, but I'll do my best not to just put them in a list, cause that would be stupid of me.

So in February, there was the surprise party of Charlotte Schenique, which was really fun. Although, I wasn't dressed quite for the occasion in my Canada sweatshirt and jeans, but no matter, it was a good outing all together! With my friend Marie we gave her a stuffed animal that reminded us of one of our teachers.

A few days later, all the Rotary clubs in France went to see a Walt Disney movie about Walt Disney and Mary Poppins. I really have no clue what it's called in English, but in French it's called "Dans L'ombre de Mary", starring Tom Hanks and Emma Thompson.

FEBRUARY THE 8TH: ROTARY SCAVENGER HUNT.
There was a scavenger hunt in the town of Metz with all of the exchange students and "youth" of the Rotary clubs of District 1790. It was especially fun because I knew where we were going, whereas most other people had no idea where we were, which was amusing. *Side note, I also watched a movie called Le Premier Jour de la reste de ta vie" which is an amazing movie in french, I seriously recommend it to anyone who would like to watch it.

After that I had a little bit of a 'crush crisis', which caused long suffering and much pain. Nawh i'm kidding, it sorted itself out rather quickly with a bit of inquiry.

THEN IT WAS VACATIONS YEAH MAYBE I THINK NO ACTUALLY IT WASN'T IT WAS JUST A WEEKEND, that I spent at a sleepover at my host sister's house, then I spent the day with two exchange students, then I went to a pool with slidey tubes, which was amusinnnggggg.

*It was also the olympics at this time, go Canada*

A few days after all that took place, there was a rehearsal for the Concert Des Lycées. Which is super cool, and for which I am super excited.

For all those who said that I don't do my homework, and I don't work in school: I got the highest remarks (i guess that's the best translation) on my report card. "Felicitations": which is pretty impressive, cause I'm not a French student, nor a native french speaker.

THEN AFTER THAT IT WAS THE BEGINNING OF VACATIONS FOR TWO WEEKS HOLLER YAY COOL STUFF VACATIONS ARE FUN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I literally did nothing the first couple days of vacation, I was so exhausted. Then I went to see "Le vent se leve" with Marie, which was REALLY good, I recommend it to anyone who likes movies. I should let it be known that this movie turned me on to all other Hayao Miyazaki movies.

So seeing as it was the vacations, I kinda took advantage and went to a French party, thanks to Thomas Zanon (happy birthday btw), which was super fun. Then I spent a super chill day with some of his friends.

I'm exhausted, so I shall finish this tomorrow.
