Things I will miss about Vichy/ France

And now to the list of things that I will miss about Vichy/ France:
  • Being able to walk in my p-jay-jays (pyjamas for you people not accustomed with my funny talk) over to a friend’s room and be like “hey, what are we doing tonight. I still have a bottle of wine that I need to finish”....unless parents or relatives read this then I said "Hey let's watch a Disney movie and go to bed at 9:30 with a glass of warm milk!".....*nervous laugh*
  • Chilling by the river playing Uno...........with a bunch of cheaters!!!!!! It’s a conspiracy I tell you! Why must you give ME the “pick-up 2 cards”?!?!?
  • Making fun of each other because of our accents. It’s “milk” not “melk”, “peacan” not “pecahn”, “process” not “prawcess”.....the list goes on people...
  • Travelling adventures: Paris, London, Nimes, Venice, Edinburgh, Florence.....
  • Cheap French wine.
  • Mischievousness in general. And by mischievousness, I of course mean doing stupid things that aren't actually bad but could be perceived that way by the most prudish of people. Leaning over a Venetian canal however, is rather silly. I’m looking at you Julie. JULIE!!!!
Look at this kid leaning on over the canal! She so crazy!
  • French cheese. Brie, Salers, St. Nectaire..... *drools*
  • Being independent. I still will be to an extent at home, but it’s interesting to see how you adapt to being on your own having to fend for yourself. Which reminds me....
  • My cooking concoctions. Hmmm I have some mushrooms.....some balsamic vinegar.....and tuna.........let’s see where this goes.
  • Being able to eat nuts. Bye-bye nutella, peanut butter, cashews, peanuts, chocolate with nut warnings on them, nociollo gelato *tear* this list is too long!
  • My friends. Yes people, I took it there. I took it to cheese-ville and I’m not coming back. I miss them already and it’s only been a few days. Some are going back to the States, others are hanging around Europe for a while....because they live there but, minor detail....
  • I'll also miss seeing this poster everyday on the way to school at Spar (grocery store). Everytime I saw it I could not help but think "pain is here?! I don't want that!" but then I'd remember "pain" in french is "bread" in english.....good job Christina
    I think this is what French wrestlers say.
Leave a comment if I forgot anything!
