Cheering Up

Tuesday

Marina and I had taken our final for our linguistics class last week. Tuesday, we got our results. We basically failed horribly. I really think he just gave us pity points for the few points we did receive. Just when I think I am getting the hang of this French Uni thing...

So what do you do when life gives you lemons? You either eat until you can't anymore, or you go shopping. Or in my case: the two.

First, we treated ourselves to this vietnamese sandwich shop. It's like a vietnamese salad in a french baguette. Pretty bomb actually. While standing in line, waiting patiently, this chick was trying to cut me and my friends. This is pretty standard in French culture. We usually let it slide because life is too short to be arguing with a complete stranger, right? Well not today, honey! I just failed an important exam and I am trying to remedy it with food. Don't get in my way. As she proceeded to order, I cut her off explaining that she had indeed cut us in line. My friends were astonished for a moment, but I was like...

After enjoying our yummy sandwiches, Lauren and I headed to Rue St. Catherine where we proceeded to drop loads of money we don't have. My loot:

As a shopping recovery day, I accompanied Lauren to the coiffure. She cut her hair into a super cute angled lob (longer bob). After, I relaxed at home until I saw the break in the weather to go for a jog. However, as soon as I was in the middle of my run, I am sure you can guess what happened.. Downpour, baby. I ran straight home.

Later that night, Joana came into my room worried about Bao our cat. She had been putting off getting him neutered and she finally made an appointment for Thursday morning. She said it was cruel and selfish. I tried not to laugh because she was really stressed, but I was like he's a cat.. He won't even know what the hell happened.

Thursday

So now after a successfully dry workout today, I am studying for my next test, catching up on my blog, and awaiting our groggy cat to return from the vet.

Happy end of the week everyone!
