You'll shoot your eye out!! (Adam, I didn't get to watch it this year!!!)

Hi Everybody!!!
I hope that things are going well back in home. Things here are going good. I am only working two days a week this week and next week cause my punk kids are on vacation so I only have to teach some adults (most are on vacation too so I am not working a lot!!! Yay!!).
Other than that, I am almost ready for Christmas. Stève, Karen and I have to make Christmas cookies this week so that we can eat them on Christmas day and we need to leave one for the Père Noël on Christmas Eve. Also I am the official gift-wrapper this year (what a change!!!) so I have wrapped almost every gift under the tree (not the ones for me!!) but I am not quite done yet. I was thinking of making fudge this week too cause I can get the ingredients at the American grocery store in Paris so that will be one more project for this week.
Anyway I guess that’s really it for now. If I don’t blog again this week, I wish you all a very Merry Christmas!

Mom, Dad and Ema, I hope that you guys enjoy your quiet Christmas. Say hi to everyone in Montreal from me. Miss you and love you!
Adam, I hope that you received the package I sent so that you have your present to open on Christmas Day in Placentia. I know how much you love Christmas. Has it snowed yet in New Foundland? No snow here….boohoo! Miss you and love you!
Tali, I hope that you are not too sad to be away from home. I know that you are going to partying lots with your friends (and traveling a bit) so you should be ok. I will see you in February and we will exchange gifts then! Miss you and love you!

Peace out!

Oh no, I think that I am turning into a Parisian!

Ok well, I've finally got some news.
First, my picture on my blog is currently out of order until my brother's computer is fixed cause it is stored in his files.

About the title of this blog, I realized that I am starting to become more and more Parisian everyday. I now push my way onto the metro when it's full and I NEVER say excuse me or sorry! I push to get a spot on the bus and I WON'T give it up to some old lady or man or to a pregnant or disabled person either (I know it's mean but this is what life in Paris has come to). I use to be the first to get up and give my spot away and I use to get pushed in every direction so that people can make their way onto metros or buses first but now I won't allow it anymore. I have to defend myself. I eat baguettes in the metro on my way to work. I eat dinner at 7:30 or 8 every night. I work from 8 to 6 like every other Parisian. I yell when there is a accident on the roads cause then I am stuck in traffic (no more sympathy). I look down when walking so that I don't step in dog poop. I hate tourists cause they don't understand the metro system and cannot speak French. BASICALLY, when I get back to Canada, I am going to be a rude bitch!
I can't help it cause I have to adapt to survive in this crazy city. I hope you all understand....

Other news, I met the author that wrote 'Et si c'était vrai..' my favourite book right now. In English it's called 'Just like Heaven' and there was a movie version of it with Reese Witherspoon. He also wrote 'Vous revoir' and 'Où es-tu?' (I don't know if those were ever in Canada). Anyway he was at Virgin (like HMV) on the Champs Elysees so I went there on Thursday night to get my book signed and I also got a picture with him! Stève didn't want to come but decided to stay and meet me there since he spent the day in Paris so that we could take the metro and bus back together. So, while I was at work (until 6) he was walking around the 5 floors of Virgin looking for Christmas presents. WELL, he happened to meet two people from Star Academy (my favourite show). He got to see Ely and Emilie the two girls that got voted out in the semi-final last Friday. He got their autographs for me. By the time I got there, they were gone. I was so sad! I still got to see Marc Levy though which was exciting!

The Star Academy final is this Friday and I am so sad that it's going to be over soon. What will I watch everynight now?

That's it for now. I will blog again soon!
