purgatory, day two

So they have now alphabetized us by country within our committee. Apparently we were very bad delegates yesterday and had to be handled accordingly.

Um.

Right so anyways. Things are shaping up to be pretty odd. It's only our second meeting thing out of like six. Life blows. Hopefully we won't be alphabetized for the rest of eternity because I miss my counterpart and I don't even get cell service in here to text with her. Sweet.

Uhhhh my Iowa letter probably came today, that's terrifying. I would cry if I didn't get in.

Right so yeah, looks like we're starting.

model yew enn

Soooo I'm sitting in the conference right now. They're handing out placards and the delegates won't be quiet and it's pissing the chairs off and vaguely reminding me of amstud when Remley has meltdowns hahaha.

OH OH OH speaking of which! I totally got the lowdown on what Stevo thinks of our amstud class...he haaaaaaaates that entire row of girls (you know the ones I mean)

and I asked him a few questions:

1. Did Jen Balogh drop amstud? YES
2. Does Alexa just not come to class sometimes? YES
3. Were Devin and Alexa in a fight like two weeks ago? I HOPE SO.

He's so hilarious omg. Alssooooo he says that he'll be surprised if Alexa gets credit for this quarter. And he loved Devin's comment about how Alexa's only disability is laziness and not coming to class.

Umm, what else, what else?

I really want my letter from Iowa to come. I'M LIKE DYING OMG.

Oh and our tour guide who was supposed to like lead us around and help us looked like Jeffdrakos. And he was an epic douche.

For instance: when we were leaving dinner to go to our respective halls, a couple of chicks from our school had gone to the bathroom and weren't back. So I like shouted "Matt! Stop! We have stragglers!" and he looked back at me AND THEN BLATANTLY IGNORED ME wtf. I was like "why are you jeff drakos good god"

Okay I seem to be running out of things to say right now. I will inevitably post like 18,000 more times before 11 tonight. Which is okay, because I totally have uncommitted people behind me who could give a shit.

Oh and I made friends with Sara Tehrani again! I sent her a facebook message last night and was like "look, I'm not really sure what happened but I'm sorry, and I miss being your friend." and she agreed so now we're reconnecting and emailing and such.

Also, newsflash, I miss you.

okay.

i'm the worst person ever?

But I can totally explain my absence. The plugs over here are all weird, right? Well, it turns out we weren't supposed to use our adapters that we brought for computers, so my computer was basically totally out of battery, and I had to wait to buy the right charger, but then we bought it yesterday, but then the stupid wireless wouldn't let me on, so I have to plug in on the LAN line in my parent's bedroom.

But anyways.

My mom's birthday was fun. We went out to this restaurant, and I have a lot of pictures from that on my camera but not on my computer.

We went to lunch at the restaurant in the Eiffel Tower yesterday...the food sucked pretty hard, it was way too fancy, but the Eiffel Tower was like the greatest.

I apparently know French? Well, like, not enough to really get by, but enough that I can generally get my point across, and plus there are a lot of people who speak English and aren't like super snotty about it when you look at them blankly so they have to switch from French to English.

Ummm I read Twilight. It's basically the greatest thing known to man. Please read it. You will fall in love with the vampire perfection that is Edward Cullen.

Oh, on the vampire note, the Ryro in my physics class has vampire teeth, I totally realized last night while still fluttering over Edward.

Iiiiiiii don't know if I have anything else to say. I think we might be going to Versailles today? Except we were totes supposed to take a van but now we're taking the metro? Okayyyy.

Oh last night I had a dream that there was like a beach party, and you (Melissa, because you're def the only one who will read this?) were like with me, and THERE WERE TWO MR. K'S wtf. It was so weird. One was huskier and wearing the black NC polo, and the other was the normal one and wearing the red NC polo. Soooo weird.

I also had a dream that Brendon Urie jumped on me while I was asleep. You know, like a dog? It was weird. I pushed him off and told him to go bother someone else.

Okay, photos.













I think you'll like this one best:













HAhahahahahaha I totally had to take it.

the one with the roses on the toilet seat

Today was our first day in Paris. Our plane landed in Orly at about 8am Paris time, which is 2am home time. We got to our apartment at about 10:30, and then all took naps from 11:30-ish to a little before 1:30, and then took a walking tour around our section of town. This post is retardedly image heavy, I'm sorry. Haha don't lie, Meliss, you love it. I'll get you a picture of the rosy toilet seat tomorrow, because I don't feel like doing it right now. It's...kind of epic.







HOW WAS BAPES?

omg

I'm really really really really bored. My system is starting to crash, the sugar's wearing off. I should be writing in my journal too but I don't feel like it. I'm tired. I need people to talk to. My parents are in the bar and my sister's sitting closer to an outlet. I don't like not having anyone to talk to. Maybe I'll have to sleep on the plane. I brought my sweatshirt and Jack, because they remind me of home and when I dreamed last night about sleeping on the plane, I needed something other than my thoughts that reminded me of home. It's nine in the afternoon and your eyes are the size of the moon. I want to listen to my iPod but don't want to kill the charge. I'd rather my computer lose charge than my iPod. I'm hoping there are outlets on the plane so that I can charge my computer / watch Almost Famous. I like that movie a lot. I just bought the music video for "But It's Better If You Do" on iTunes. That makes me happy. Anything with Brendon Urie makes me happy, actually. Including bapes, but that's another story entirely.

Also:

That might make me happier than it should. Maybe I'll just go to Norwalk Community College, because clearly I can't deal with this. But I doubt Melissa would be willing to go there, so. Maybe not.

i miss youuuuuu

I'm sitting in the airport lounge right now. I bought a bag of wild berry Skittles and a Coke, and some fruit Mentos. I feel like Brendon Urie. Possibly not in a good way, because my sister says the Skittles are coming out of my pores. Hehehe.

Our flight's not until 7:00. They're going to board us at like 6:30 or something. Yeah.
