Hey, sorry I have not posted for a while but I am going to try to post once a week now. Everything is going amazingly! Everything is so much fun! I love all my new friends from France and around the world. I honestly think that has been one of the things that have made my exchange AMAZING so far. I recently got a 20/20 on my English test! Score. But I guess I am supposed to do that. Oh well. Also today we had a 3 hour seminar on the cautions of driving drunk. We had to put on these special glasses, that made you seem drunk, and then you had to walk a course and count by your x2 tables. Lets just say I failed epically and I should brush up on my time tables. Today was a good day, and I am getting pumped for my 16th birthday!

Today was my first day, I think, of homesickness. I was sitting in SES (Social Economic Sciences) and I was thinking, wow. I miss Mrs. Green's chemistry class with Raychelle and Katie and Bradley. Then I thought about how I miss lunch with Sterling and just being able to communicate so easily with someone. I also miss my room and family. But this is just a little downer on the day. Overall I have been having a great time in France! Everything is cool. I am speaking now, which is good. I have friends, both French and not. I signed up for a dance class, which I am excited yet frightened for. My shoulder hurts like crazy, but the cool thing is I can feel the screws in my shoulder. I also miss school spirit and color. There is no color in my school in France, except for my French teacher's classroom which is neon pink. Why? We will never know. Well i am having a good time, and yeah.

Here's a picture of me eating McDonald's with Alissia from Belgium.
