<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif;"> Age: 17 and 2/3 years old</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif;"> Country: Montreal, Canada, best country ever! (not)</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif;"> Profession: Ex-Gymnast</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><br />
</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif; font-size: x-large;">H</span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif;">ey guys! :)</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif;">Snif, it's already finished. I can't believe that it's been (only) 6 weeks! I will really, really, REALLY miss you! I will miss Danny's stupid questions, my BFF Joey, Vinnie's music, teasing Luisa, not touching Danny, <i>In the Mix</i>, the fantastic weather you have during summer, Joey singing "Crazy" by Gnarls Barkley, and so on.</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif;">What did I like? I really like hanging out with you guys. You are one of the most... no... <u>THE</u> MOST WONDERFUL family in the whole world! You are really lucky to have a family like this, because the are fewer and fewer families like yours. This trip is the greatest trip I've ever took my whole life, and that, is because of your family. I can't believe I have to go! I promise I will come back to see you... when I'll have the money! (Guess who's coming for diner!) (Oh! I loved "Shark Week"!!!)</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif;">Mmmmmh... I also liked the fact that there was always popcorn :) . And thanks for the Lucky Charms (HALLELUIA!). I liked Anthony's diners! Miam, delicious! I liked the beach, the movies (again: HALLELUIA!), when Danny was wrestling Lydia, etc, etc, etc! There's so much to tell! Oh! Oh! I liked to fight with Joey and I enjoyed punching him in the face (sorry!).What I didn't like? Donuts (may they rot in hell!!!), Joey's buttface, sunburns... and that's it I think...</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif;">Hey Danny, I will send you a lot of Canadian Bacon, ok? Vinnie! Make me a list of music so I can discover new music groups... please!</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif;">I really liked going to Disneyland and doing the Tower of Terror with Joey and Luisa (best ride ever!). This was "<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: large;">A</span>w<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: xx-small;">e</span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: x-small;">s</span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: x-large;">o</span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: large;">m</span>e"!</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif;">So, Luisa, it's your turn! I hope you will enjoy the rest of your stay in SD. I will miss you so much! I will miss the moments when you're late, your "Jesus Christ!", when we laugh for nothing, and so on. I wish you success in your studies and I know you will be a great doctor... just don't be late to your patients appointment. Just... a little "a<b>b</b>vice" to you...! Hope you will not be too alone in our room...</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif;">Love you so much mi amiga! <3 Good luck with Joey!</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif;">Lydia, I hope the storm can come out more quickly next time I come to see you!</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif;">Hey Joey, don't forget the name "The Lonely Island". :)</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif;">Come to visit me in New York in 15 years!</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><br />
</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif;">xoxo Love you all! (except Joey)</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif;">MJ Je vous aime beaucoup!</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><br />
</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif;">Note to the next student using my (wonderful) bed:</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif;">You are really lucky to be here. This family is the best family ever. Take good care of Joey... and Lydia ;). Don't touch Danny by the way. Be prepared... they're going to find something funny about you and tease you... you'll love it!</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><br />
</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif;">P.S.: 1. Joey always "win" when we fight, even when I punched him hard in the face.</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif;"> 2. Danny, don't be too hard on Luisa.</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif;"> 3. Vinnie, I hope to see one of your movie in theater soon! :)</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif;"> 4. If one day you decide to come to Montreal, you know where to go, right?</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif;">Oh, and one (I think) last thing:</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><br />
</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif; font-size: large;">Come oooonnnn! </span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif; font-size: x-large;">"</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif; font-size: x-large;"><br />
</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif;">-Letter to my family.</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><br />
</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif;">Love,</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif;">xoxo</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><br />
</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif;">MJ, the Californian </span><br />

Just 2 days left...</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif;">There's nothing to tell for the moment. I will right my last post tomorrow night, but before this tragic moment, I wanted to share with you the movies that I watched and the web videos that I discovered. </span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><br />

<div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><br />
</span></div><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif;">I just had the most wonderful days of my life. Disney is just supercalifragilisticexpialidocious! We had so much fun and I felt young again (pf, I'm only 17 and 5/6). Let me tell you about my 2 days:</span></div><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><br />
</span></div><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif;">Last time I wrote on my blog, I was telling you about Downtown Disney. This place is magical! There's a lot of shops and restaurant, music and a LOT of people. I bought gifts and we ate at ESPN Zone. Back to the Hotel at 12:45.</span></div><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><br />
</span></div><div><b><u><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif;">Disneyland and California Adventure</span></u></b></div><div><b><u><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><br />
</span></u></b></div><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif;">Wake-up time: 6:40 AM. Breakfast and preparation for the big day. In Disneyland at 9:30. When we entered the park, I was SO excited! I just learned that with our ticket, we have flash-passes for the rides: yes yes yes, because there is a lot of waiting in line.</span></div><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif;">After walking a little bit, we went to Star Tours. 65 mins of waiting! We decided to get a flash-pass. We were only able to go to the attraction between 6:20 PM and 7:20 PM! </span></div><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif;">First stop: Indiana Jones Adventure. The waiting line was 30 mins long, but you get closer and closer to the ride every 1 min, so, it's not long. The attraction take place in a jeep, and let me tell you that the ride is rock'n'roll. I had a great time! </span></div><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif;">Second stop: Pirates of the Carribean. You are in a boat, and there are figures who talks and it's really realistic.</span></div><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif;">Third stop: Haunted Mansion. Not scary at all (far from LaRonde's Haunted House), but really fun.</span></div><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif;">Forth stop: Big Thunder Railroad. Long and painful (for my back) roller coaster. </span></div><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif;">Fifth stop: Lunch.</span></div><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif;">Sixth stop: Autopia. You drive your own car. Good practice (not). I also got my Autopia driver's license! </span></div><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif;">We got flash-passes for Space Mountain because there was a line of 60 mins.</span></div><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif;">Seventh stop: DISNEY CALIFORNIA ADVENTURE! Oh, yes, I forgot to tell you that with our tickets, we were able to go to Disneyland, but also Disney California Adventure that was JUST in front of Disneyland. </span></div><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif;">Eighth stop: The Twilight Zone, Tower of Terror. Oh... My... God... the best ride EVER! I never had so much fun in an elevator! </span></div><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif;">Ninth stop: California Screamin'. A HUGE roller coaster. Really really cool.</span></div><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif;">Tenth stop: Goofy's Sky School. Same as Toboggan Nordique, but cooler track.</span></div><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif;">Eleventh stop: Soarin' Over California. It's a big IMAX screen with moving seats (your feet don't touch the ground). Wow. </span></div><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif;">Went back to Disneyland.</span></div><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif;">Twelfth stop: Space Mountain. A ride in the dark with a million twinkle stars. </span></div><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif;">Thirteenth stop: Space Shop, where I found a t-shirt (no, I didn't buy it) with Darth Vader saying: Who's Your Daddy (haha). </span></div><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif;">Fourteenth stop: STARTOURS. You are in a spaceship with R2D2 and C3PO. Really funny and fun.</span></div><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif;">Fifteenth stop: Toontown, with Mickey's House and etc. It's a really cool place and there is a lot to see. </span></div><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif;">Last stop: Splash Mountain. This is the second funnest attraction we did. Wait 'till you see the picture...!</span></div><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif;">NOOOO, it's the end of the daaaayyyy! We watched the fireworks (best fireworks EVER) and exited the park. We were in Disneyland for 13 hours. We were so exhausted, my heals were killing me, and I was FAMISHED. I finally ate at 11:45 PM. YES! I ate my diner at 11:45! I thought I was going to throw up, because if I wait too long before eating when I'm hungry, watch out. </span></div><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><br />
</span></div><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif;">This morning, I can't walk on my left foot, too painful. And "today I don't feel like doing anything. Toutoloutoutoulou, I just wanna lay in my bed. Toutouloutoutoulou. <span class="Apple-style-span" style="-webkit-border-horizontal-spacing: 2px; -webkit-border-vertical-spacing: 2px;">Don't feel like picking up my phone, so leave a message at the tone </span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="-webkit-border-horizontal-spacing: 2px; -webkit-border-vertical-spacing: 2px;">'Cause today I swear I'm not doing anything.

<br />
<span style="font-family: Times, "Times New Roman", serif;">Just a quick update on what happened last night and today (friday).</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Times, "Times New Roman", serif;">Yesterday, Joey and I fought a LOT. We kick, punch, tickle, and last night, oh! I was hitting Joey's shoulder and he turned to me... and BAM! I punch him in the face... literally. OHoh... </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Times, "Times New Roman", serif;">But we started to laugh and now, I <span class="hps" closure_uid_i05iow="144" kd="null">threaten him if he's mean to me. </span></span><br />
<br />
<span class="hps" closure_uid_i05iow="144" kd="null"><span style="font-family: Times, "Times New Roman", serif;">NOW, today, we left home at 7:30, stopped at the Starbuck and the Bank, and we were on our way to pick up Vinnie from his Art Camp in Valencia. After a call from my mom on Lydia's phone (!), Anthony put his iPod and we listened to his music. Later, Anthony put <em>Wish You Were Here </em>by Pink Floyd. I was so excited. But suddenly, I started crying. </span></span><br />
<br />
<span class="hps" closure_uid_i05iow="144" kd="null"><em><span style="font-family: Times, "Times New Roman", serif;">We're just two lost souls <br />
Swimming in a fish bowl, <br />
Year after year, <br />
Running over the same old ground. <br />
What have we found? <br />
The same old fears. <br />
Wish you were here. </span></em></span><br />
<br />
<span class="hps" closure_uid_i05iow="144" kd="null"><span style="font-family: Times, "Times New Roman", serif;">I was thinking about you guys. I wish you were with me. I started to think about a lot of things like Camine and here trip, CEGEP, Verine, Boisbriand, Mom, Dad, Drou, Florine etc, and I thought: what are they doing at this very moment! I love you.</span></span><br />
<span class="hps" closure_uid_i05iow="144" kd="null"><br />
<span style="font-family: Times, "Times New Roman", serif;">Soooooooo... We were early (to pick up Vinnie), so, we ended up in a Wal-Mart. I bought 2 things... but I'm not gonna tell you what it is (surprise for my family: MOM! Don't say anything!) We picked up V. and Joey decided that it was time to reveal my super-secret: The Lonely Island. Yey. </span></span><br />
<span class="hps" closure_uid_i05iow="144" kd="null"><span style="font-family: Times, "Times New Roman", serif;">Finally, here... we... are! In Anaheim, the hometown of the (Mighty) Ducks and also... Mickey Mouse! Our hotel is lovely! We are staying at the <em>Hampton: Inn & Suites</em>. Really beautiful. Free Wi-Fi (but I don't have my laptop), view on the pool, and a reaalllyyy... comfortable... bed. :)</span></span><br />
<span class="hps" closure_uid_i05iow="144" kd="null"><span style="font-family: Times, "Times New Roman", serif;">We're leaving the hotel around 19:30 to take a shuttle that will take us to <em>Downtown Disney</em>, where there is a lot of shops, restaurant, and games. </span></span><br />
<br />
<span class="hps" closure_uid_i05iow="144" kd="null"><span style="font-family: Times, "Times New Roman", serif;">I love you all! </span></span><br />

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><br />
</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif;">Did you guess? YES! I'm going to Disneyland! The place where nobody's too old to go!</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif;">I don't really remember a lot from my last visit in Disney, but I do remember the Tower of Terror, and NOW, I'm going to do it (Gab: May the force be with me). But the first ride we're going to go is this Star Wars ride, because if you want to do it hours after the park is open, you'll have to wait 75 mins. Nah, not gonna happen! So that's why it's gonna be our first ride. I'm glad I'm going to be with the DeMaria family and Luisa. I really like them and we have so much fun together! It's a shame that there's only one week left, because I would stay here 2000 years, but I have to go back home someday (this day came too soon). Also, I would like to say to Drou to enjoy her last days in Europe.</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif;">A picture of my family, Luisa and I will come soon. I want to take one in Disney. </span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><br />
</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif;">See you sooooooon!</span><br />

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif;">Hello mis amores!</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><br />
</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif;">On Sunday, we went to the beach. It was the perfect day. There was clouds and sometimes, the sun appeared for 30 mins. No, in San Diego, it never (I swear to God, Buddha and Allah) rains. Never never NEVER! That is why I like SD. Everyday, it's warm and sunny outside, every night, it's cold (but not too much) outside, so we sleep well. </span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif;">So, to go back to the beach, we had a wonderful day. I went (this time) in the water. COLD, but after 5 minutes, I was ok. There was a lot of waves. Danny and I have defied the waves, although, at some point, I thought I was going to die. </span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><br />
</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif;">I know I watched a movie this evening but I don't even remember the movie... snif. I swear, I must have watched 20 movies (at least). I going to count them and come back on this later. ;)</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><br />
</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif;">This week, at school, we have to do a quiz on internet (<a href="http://www.findyourspot.com/">www.findyourspot.com</a>). They ask you a bunch of questions and at the end, they give you the cities that fit with your preferences and your lifestyle in the US. No surprise, I got the main cities in the country (Boston, Philadelphia, San Francisco, New York City, San Diego, LA, Las Vegas (yes yes!) and I also got Honolulu). Then, in class, we have to present our city and say why we would live there. Guest what city I picked?</span><br />

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><br />
</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif;">Went to see the Padres! It was SO COOOOL (even though they lost...). Reminded me the Expo's games! I had a great evening. It was fun. I took a bunch of pictures and videos. I bought myself a t-shirt and a cap :). Ate ice cream and before the game, we went to this place called <i>The Tilt Kilt</i>, and this is NOT like a Chuck E. Cheese ladies and gentlemen (especially gentlemen). Imagine girls, with kilts, now imagine their kilts waaaay above their knees... and you can also see their tummy...got the picture? Well, meet my waitress. Tall, blond, with big... heum heum... and tadam! As a girl, I just find it funny to look at the boys when the waitress leave their table. (Look at that hot piece of...) And also, for the girls, there was boys (few...) and they also wear a kilt. Lydia wanted to take a picture of me and one of the boys. NO WAY. </span><br />

</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif;">Today, I'm (as always) in the Student Café on EF Campus. Every day that I start at 12:55, I come here, doing things on my computer (AA's computer, sorry). But funny thing, I never buy at the Student Café. I decided today that as I always come here, I will buy something for a change. A "danoise au citron" and a Vitamin Water (miam). Today, I'm doing my schedules for CEGEP. </span><br />

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif;">I watched <i>Nacho Libre</i> with Jack Black. Very funny and it was really good. (Hey, as Androu's doing food critic all the time, am I doing film critic?) </span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><br />
</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif;">Nothing to report... I'm going to try to go to San Diego Zoo tomorrow. </span><br />

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><br />
</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif;">1. I think a lot about Norway and the crazy nazi guy. In US, there isn't a lot of news and I heard it at school. This is terrible and I hope this guy rot in hell. </span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif;">2. One of my favorite singer is dead on july 23. She had something that no one had and she introduced jazz to our generation. Although she had a hard public life, her songs will stay forever. RIP Amy Winehouse </span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif;">3. American food is sometimes really tempting. Gosh.</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif;">4. Today, we talk about famous buildings in our own country. I told the class that there was the CN Tower, but I hate Toronto, so I said that the most famous in Quebec must be the Château Frontenac. Then, we talked about "classics", and I was the only one with the right definition of a "classic" (thank you to my enriched english class). We talked about classic music, theater, books, movies, and tv shows. I was good at this. </span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif;">Classic music: Beatles, Rolling Stones, Michael Jackson</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif;">Classic books: Jules Verne's books, One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest (THANK YOU REGINA)</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif;">Classic theater: William Shakespeare's plays. </span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif;">Classic movies: Gone with the Wind, E.T., etc</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif;">Classic Tv Shows (I was good at this one, all my class was giving recent shows): Three's Compagny, The Twilight Zone, FRIENDS. </span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif;">5. Watched <i>Battle: Los Angeles</i>, it was good, but very dark.</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif;">6. My hair's bugging me.</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif;">7. Tomorrow I'm riding the bike home. </span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif;">8. I have to go to San Diego Zoo, but when?</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif;">9. I'm thinking about buying a new dress...</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif;">10. I should go downtown SD... once.</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif;">11. Mom, Dad, can you send me video of me doing gym to show my family?</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif;">12. I'm tired.</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif;">13. Zzzzzz...</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif;">14. Go see my older posts... I had a couple of photos! </span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><br />

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><br />
</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><b><u>Things that I forgot</u></b></span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><b><u><br />
</u></b></span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif;">After the Café Bastille, I wanted to go to the SFMoMA, but it was closed. Then I wanted to go to the Contemporary Jewish Museum, but it was closed too... so that's why I decided to go back to my room. </span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><br />
</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><b><u>Update</u></b></span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><b><u><br />
</u></b></span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif;">The ride back home was fine. We stopped at Santa Barbara for 45 mins but it wasn't enough. This city is SO beautiful! If you want to go to the beach and relax, go shopping and eat in small restaurants, go to Santa Barbara. I got home at 12h30 am. I was SO tired. </span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><br />
</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><b><u>Monday</u></b></span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><b><u><br />
</u></b></span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif;">Today, at school, we had to describe a house (dream house, own house, host family house, whatever) and we get into groups. We try then to sale our house. After, we decided who has the best house. I described my house in Montreal... and I won in my group. :)</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif;">I talked about the flowers and the way the sun illuminates the </span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif;">living room in the evening. <3 </span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif;">Next step: we will be against the other team. The group that wins, win a homework pass. </span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif;">Oh, and Joey and Danny are amazed because I can lick my elbow...</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><br />
</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif;">That's all for todaaaay!</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><br />

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><b><u>How do I past time?</u></b></span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><b><u><br />
</u></b></span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif;">I started to play a game on my computer that I feel ashamed to play again. Long live Zelda and the Ocarina of Time! (Message to Gabe: I almost finished the game! Do you remember, there was this bug in the Temple of Water with the hookshot. I found a way! You don't care? Ok, I just thought you should know...)</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><br />

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif;">Aurevoir my little stud. (Because YOU will be the teachèr and I will be the stud.)</span><br />

</tbody></table><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif;">Hi folks!</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif;"></span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif;"> </span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif;">I'm in San Francisco, and I have a lot to tell you! I know that you have a lot of questions to tell me, so, I decided to arranged this post like a questionnaire. </span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif;"></span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif;"> </span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif;">0. <u>The first thing to tell</u>: I LOVE SF. </span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif;">1. <u>Why?</u> The buildings' architecture is amazing! It's really beautiful! Also, the view is amazing.</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif;">2. <u>Is it always sunny?</u> NO, that's why it's COLD in here! Always wearing my jeans.</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif;">3. <u>Who are the San Franciscan?</u> A lot of them are homeless. I never seen so much homeless people in my life! They are everywhere! </span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif;">4. <u>How was the ride?</u> The ride was ok. 11 hours is a loooooooooooooooong time, but thanks to the rides to Pompano Beach, I was patient. </span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif;">5. <u>Did you met someone?</u> I met 3 grils: two french girls (19, 20) and a russian girl (24). They are very kind. I hang out with them and we get along very well even though the french girls don't know what a "sacre" means.</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif;">6. <u>Do you have a guide?</u> Yes, his name is Paul (29). Very energetic. </span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif;">7. <u>How was your first day?</u> Friday, we arrived at 8 PM in SF. It was foggy and COLD. We had free time, so we tried to find a good place to eat. We finally end up in a pub called Murphy's. Seriously, I could've order any type of alcohol and they wouldn't even care. But I didn't, because I hate alcohol. Uuuugh!</span><br />

<div style="text-align: right;"></div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif;">8. <u>How was your second day?</u> First of all, it was (again) very cold outside. Ate a croissant for breakfest. We went to see the Crookedest Street in America. It was really impressive, and beautiful with the flowers and the trees. After, we went to see the famous Golden Gate Bridge. My knee started to be painful after walking ½ of the bridge. After, we went to see the Twin Peaks, to then, after, make a stop at Fisherman's Wharf. Very crowded and a lot of shops. I ate a fish & chips (miam). </span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif;">We went into a lot of shops, and I bought something for my <i>I LOVE</i> t-shirt collection. The bus was supposed to pick us up at 4 PM to get back to the hotel. After 10 minutes past 4. I said goodbye to my friends and walk a little bit through the chinatown to make my way to Powell St, the shopping area. I bought a pair of black flats (check!) at my favorite store: Urban Outfitters. There was also t-shirts with Michael Jackson on it and I thought about my father (love you). After, I went to Forever 21, Aldo, Abercrombie and American Eagle. After all this walk, I did a little research on internet before coming to SF and I found a street with a lot of restaurant. I found a french restaurant called <i>Café Bastille </i>(to be connect in some way to Androu) and I enjoyed a hachis parmentier and for dessert, MACARON DU SUD!! <3 Miam miam miaaaaaam! It was 5 delicious macarons (and not just 1 big macarons "hamburger"). After my date with myself, I went back to the hotel because I was tired. It was 8 PM when I went back to my room. I took a shower, opened my laptop and watched <i>The Odd Couple</i>. After 10 PM, I started to not feel so good. I was feeling sick. It was the first time since I'm in California that I wanted someone from Montreal to be with me: my mom. I thought I was going to throw up. It was awful. I finally decided to go to sleep.</span><br />

</u></b></span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif;">Sunday, we went to the beach, not any kind of beach, a beach where there's rock, crabs, not a lot of sand, and... sea lion (though we didn't see one...). It was really beautiful. </span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif;">Also, I changed level at school. I'm an A<i>dvanced 1</i> now!</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><br />

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif;">I start week 3. Nothing important to report... I think... if something came up, I will tell you!</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><br />

</u></b></span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif;">This day was CRAZY! Because monday, we had last week schedule and tuesday, we began the new schedule. Let me explain...</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><br />
</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif;">Every sunday, we have to check our schedule online to see if it changed. I have the same schedule, but not the same room number and not the same teacher. Tuesday, I went to my class, and the teacher didn't have my name on their list. I went to another classroom, and they didn't have my name either. So, I went back to the first classroom and stayed there. When I came back from school, I went to see my schedule and SURPRISE! I was in the wrong class, AND they changed my schedule on monday! I only went to see it sunday! </span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif;">A good thing with my new schedule is that my new teacher is my grammar teacher. Yes!</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><br />
</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif;">Evening: we went to this place called Brigantine's. It was GOOD! I ate a taco with chicken buffalo. Miam miam miam! Horray for the american food! After, Luisa and I bought frozen yogurt for the family at a place called "In the Mix". You choose the frozen yugort flavor, then you can put candies, cereal, syrup, etc etc etc on you yogurt, and there you go! It was SOOOOOOO good!</span><br />

I bought my classic sandwich Steak & Cheese, footlong italian bread, swiss cheese, banana peppers, olives, lettuce, onions, Sudwest sauce at Subway (eat fresh). I bought a frozen yogurt for Danny because he wasn't there with us yesterday, and when I came home, I said: "I got something for you!". He got scared because he thought I brought a spider home (he's afraid of spider). Then, we said (Joey and I) that it wasn't a spider, it was frozen yogurt he said: "I don't like frozen yogurt". A little later, he wasn't home, so I ate it. When he came back, he said: "Mmmh, I feel like eating frozen yogurt!" Then, I told him that I ate it. He was so mad! Haha. </span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif;">I watched Charlie's Angels (didn't ou notice that Matt Leblanc plays in this movie?!) because I could remember a THING of this movie! In the evening, we watched Dumb and Dummer. :)</span><br />

</span></u></b><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif;"> My class and I have been to the beach to do a Scavenger Hunt. It was so fun! I met Daniella (20 years old girl; in my class; from Mexico; who doesn't look like 20) and Ihisha (17 years old girl; also in my class; from Trukey; who speaks french). There is also a girl from Paris (17), but unfortunately, I can't remember her name. This girl is coming to Montreal from 4 years, and I'm probably going to show her our beautiful country. She's really excited about it.</span><br />

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif;">Luisa introduced me to some of her friends and I met someone really interesting: Joséphine from Paris. She's here for 3 other weeks. She loves photography, studies in cinema and... LOVE Montreal and people from Quebec. Especially our accent. She's really nice and she was glad that she can finally speak about cinema, photography, etc, with someone. Even though we both speak french, the conversation we had was entirely in english. I hope to see her again!</span><br />

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif;">This evening, wondering what should I do, I decided to go see (alone) the last Harry Potter movie.

<div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><br />
</span></div><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif;">Yesterday, with Danny and Joey, I watch (again) 2 movies: <i>The Mask </i>and <i>The Hot Chick</i>. I've already seen both of them, but it was fun watching them again. </span></div><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><br />

</span></div><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif;">Danny and Joey didn't believe me that Jim Carrey is canadian. It took them a long time to finally realize, after the 200000 web pages on Jim, that the Almighty Dumb is, in fact, canadian. I don't know if they were joking about not knowing. I think they were just jealous about the fact that a canadian can be that successful. In their faces! Haha.</span></div><div><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><br />

If you wanna laugh, rent it. It's hilarious (Mom, don't watch it)! Good gags.</span></div><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><br />

</span></div><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif;">Lydia told me that if Vinnie was home, we could've watch the new Harry Potter before ANYONE ELSE tonight, before the premiere, because Vinnie works at the movie theater. Sh*t. F... WHY ME? Aaaah, that's not the end of the world. YES IT IS! No, it's not, OK?! YEEEEEEEEEEEEES!!! Who cares?! I CARE! Go see it tomorrow then! Oh, yes, great idea... never thought of that... </span></div><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><br />

</span></div><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif;">Also, I decided that I'm going to the San Francisco trip with EF.

</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif;">8 AM, I was with Lydia and Luisa in the car, heading to Alliant University (EF School). I didn't want to stay at school for 4 hours, so Lydia drop me off at a Starbucks Coffee, where WiFi is available. I'm glad I'm here with my Strawberry Smoothie and my Upper Intermediate English Book to study. Yes, in EF, we have to study. I have an exam this Thursday and I have to study the Infinitive + British english VS American english + vocabulary. What's funny, is that the test is multiple answers. Back to Regina! I hope it will be easy. </span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><br />
</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif;">So... Yes, I studied for an hour. It's 9:36 and I'm done. Wouhouh. </span><br />

</u></span></span></div><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="line-height: 20px;">Luisa and I went to do a little bit of shopping at the mall. There's a lot of stores in this mall: <i>H&M</i>, <i>American Eagle Outfitters</i>, <i>Abercrombie</i>, <i>Hollister</i>,<i> Forever 21</i>, <i>Aéropostale</i>, etc etc etc. And if you know me well, you know that I don't buy a lot. I hate buying stuff. No, my name is not Andrée-Anne (I love you). But ladies and gentlemen, for the first time, with my OWN money, I bought... a pair of shorts and a vest. Yes yes yes, that's right: I spent money...!!! </span></span></div><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="line-height: 20px;"><br />

</u></b></span></span></div><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="line-height: 20px;">I had to go to the restroom SO badly. In this mall, what's strange is that the restroom are in the biggest stores. So, I went to the restroom in a J.C. Penney. When I was in front of the ladies' restroom, SURPRISE: it was out of order.Sooooooooooo... I looked to my left... I look to my right... I thought: "Well well well... there's nobody around, I'm safe..." and soooooooo, I used the men's room! </span></span></div><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="line-height: 20px;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><br />

</span></span></div><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="line-height: 20px;">The <i>Forever 21</i> is... HUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUGE! I couldn't believe my EYES! I was flabbergasted. It was INCREDIBLE! There was too much stock! Androu, I would have fainted + it wasn't expensive. A pair of shorts + belt for 21$. Wow wow wow.</span></span></div><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="line-height: 20px;"><br />

I have a problem with my transportation... Now that Vinnie is gone, my family has a problem with my transport. Luisa and I have opposite schedule: if I have early classes, she has late classes. It's horrible. Now, each morning, even if my first class is at 12:55, I have to go to school at 8 am. It sucks. And if I have early classes, I have to wait until 5 pm for Anthony to pick Luisa and I at school. </span></span></div><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="line-height: 20px;">Also, I can't take the bus. It would take 2 hours. So, I found a way to get back home when I have early classes: bicycle. </span></span></div><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="line-height: 20px;">So, this morning, I went to school, and I took Lydia's bike to go back home. It took me 1 hour. Positive side: exercise and going down hill. Negative side: I have to go up a big hill. This was NOT funny at all. But this is the only negative side I found. Oh, no... there's another one: Lydia bike doesn't have speeds. So for the next month, 3 times a week, I have to use the bike (I'm thinking about Denis and Grandpa Émilien at this very moment).</span></span></div><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="line-height: 20px;">I went to Wallgreens to buy a notebook (76¢) and after, Subway for a Italien footlong Steak and Cheese Sandwich (miiiiiiiam). </span></span></div><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="line-height: 20px;"><br />

</span></u></b><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif;">Yesterday, Luisa and I were alone in the house. The DeMaria family was away this day because Vinnie has a cinema camp 3 hours from San Diego. We chillaxed and we ate. I watched TV and she was on her computer. After awhile, we decided to go in the swimming pool. Problem: the dogs. They wanted to play and after a couple of minutes, they were SUPER annoying. We tried to know where the family keep them when they are this annoying. We finally found it, on the side of the house. We were able to relax once and for all. We talked a lot. We talked about EF, the family, Spanish, French, etc etc etc. This talk lasted 2 hours. After, we took a shower, and we make ourselves sandwiches, until Ms Camine skyped me. Luisa ended up doing my sandwich. She's the sweetest! We watched <i>(500) Days of Summer </i>and <i>The Hangover</i>. Then, our family came back from Vinnie's college of art. </span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif;">Watched 15 minutes of <i>Saturday Night Live</i>, and tired of this relaxing day, we went to sleep. </span><br />

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif;">This morning, something was waiting for me in the kitchen: <b>donuts</b>. Oooooouf...

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><br />
</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif;">Today, my family asked me to skip class to go to the beach. I told myself that I can only skip school 2 times: this time, and when we leave to go pick up Vinnie (the oldest) to his cinema camp on friday the 5th. We also go to Disneyland this week-end (!!!). </span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><br />
</span><br />
<u><b><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif;">The Sun Never liked me...</span></b></u><br />
<u><b><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><br />
</span></b></u><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif;">We went to the beach: it was sunny and hot outside. I put my sunscreen, because we don't want to develop skin cancer! You have to believe me: I never put so many times sunscreen. After 1:30, it was sunscreen time. </span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif;">But, of course, the sun tricked me and NOW, I have sunburns. I am MAD at him. Stupid sun. But what's weird out my sunburns, it's that they are... kind of... I don't know how to explain them! Let say that I will be shy to show my legs tomorrow...</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><br />
</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif;">So, my first sunburns of the summer! Very fun. They just can't live without me, can they? </span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif;">So, beside of that, I watch TV today. A LOT of TV. I'm in heaven! I watched 3 episodes of <i>Scrubs</i>, <i>Wipe Out</i>, <i>Two and ½ Man</i>, <i>Super Nanny</i>, a little bit of <i>Step Brothers</i>, etc etc etc. Anthony talked to me about <i>The Office</i> and said it was really good. I know the show, but I never really attend to watch it. I guess I'm going to watch it after all! </span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><br />
</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif;">Good night my moons from east! </span><br />

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><br />

</span></u></b><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif;">Today was my VERY first day of school.</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif;">I had 3 classes: Grammar III and double GeUpper Intermediate.</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif;">Grammar III: we are doing the "will" "is going to", and their contraction. So, now, try to say "Bob'll". Sounds like bubble. My partner and I laugh so hard at this. </span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif;">GeUpper Intermediate: This class is so FUN! My teach, Donri Roberson, aka Mister D, is really cool! When he came to </span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif;">pronounce my name, he said: "Ok... so... um... Mary-Jowellhfejkfnlkdsf". </span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif;">- Hum, MJ.</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif;">- What? Just MJ?</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif;">- Well, yes. MJ is simpler. You can't even pronounce it so...</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif;">- Oh, sorry mademoiselle from Quebec! Marie-Joëlle. I stayed in Quebec for 8 years. Je sais un peu de français. I used to play football there. Câlice, Tabarnack, esti."</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif;">He's so funny. When he asked me questions about myself, he was like: "If you had 1 000 000$, what would you do with it?" or "Do you have a boyfriend? Do you want one? Why?"</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><br />
</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif;">So, to resume, I think I'm going to like my 6 weeks here. :)</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif;">The staff at school is really nice and helpful.</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><br />
</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><b><u>Family part</u></b></span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><br />
</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif;">We went to see Joey's (the youngest) baseball game. It reminded me Gabe's hockey games. It was fun to watch. Joey's really good! They won the game, and if they win the next 2 games, they're going to the championship! Danny (the one in the middle) said that Joey's team will never gonna make it to the championship. So, Lydia (mother) said that if Poway Baseball team win the next 2 matches, Danny has to kiss Joey's toes after the second game. </span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif;">They're so funny. (:</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><br />

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><u><b>4th of July.</b></u></span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif;">My family and I had a BBQ with Luisa and 2 of her friends, that I can't say their names because... I don't know their names! I just know that they are from Colombia and one of them was... 33. </span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif;">I played in the pool with Vinnie, Danny and Joey. It was really fun! We had balloons and we filled them with water. It was cool 8-) .</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif;">We ate hamburgers and hot-dogs, and after, we went to see the fireworks. We didn't see much. We just took a spot in a church parking lot and trees were in the way. Not cool. But we could see them anyway. We were on the top of the truck. :)</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><br />
</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif;">After, when we came home, we watched Family Guy... haha. This show doesn't make any sense. It's so funny. We have can watch it in Canada, but I never watched it. </span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><br />

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif;">That's it for the 4th of July. </span><br />

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><br />
</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif;">Ce matin, j'ai pu dégusté une BOOONNE gaufre avec MON sirop d'érable (yep) and I'm off to school. La première journée est la journée la plus longue. On reçoit des infos et on meet du new people. Petit tour du campus, après on reçoit d'autres infos, blablabla. Finalement, on va manger à la cafétéria. Beaucoup de hamburgers et de frites. J'ai opté pour le côté santé: salade avec des légumes, alors que tout le monde se bourre la face de frites pis de fried chicken. J'ai été sage, et je ne vais pas changer mes habitudes de gymnaste! </span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif;">Nous sommes allées faire un tour de San Diego rapide:</span><br />

<u><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif;">Mount Soledad</span></u><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif;">Montagne où nous pouvons observer San Diego de pas mal tous les angles. C'est très beau, et le gazon passe du beige, au vert pâle, au vert extrêmement... vert. Ce haut de montagne est pour les personnes qui ont aidé durant la guerre. Une grosse croix blanche est installée en haut. C'est très beau la vue. </span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif;"></span><br />

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif;">Endroit où on peut acheter de la crème glacée et des t-shirts I <3 San Diego. C'est cute. Il y a des fontaines un peu partout. J'ai pris une photo avec un monsieur qui se prenait pour Johnny Depp ou si vous préférez: Jack Sparrow! </span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><br />
</span><br />
<u><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif;">Moment bizarre</span></u><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif;">Des filles ben ben normales m'ont demandé si j'avais du temps pour qu'elles m'informent sur les esprits et d'autres affaires bizarres. J'ai dit que non, j'étais pas intéressée. Ici, on peut dire: WTF?</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><br />
</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif;">Je me suis faite une amie: Fernanda qui vient du Brésil. Très gentille. </span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif;">La fille qui est dans ma chambre est super drôle! :)</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif;">Tout le monde comprend pas pourquoi je suis à EF. Ils disent que je parle super bien anglais. Je suis si contente!</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><br />
</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif;">Tonight: BBQ with the DeMaria family, the best family EVER!</span><br />

Okay. Pire place du monde, mais c'est ok. Ici je parle littéralement de l'endroit où est la place (chinois qui cogne des clous à côté de moi ...).</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><br />
</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif;">Arrivée saine et sauve! Mais les péripéties s'enchaînent l'une après l'autre: je trouve pas le gars de EF! Merde merde merde! Je fais le tour de mon terminal, et je décide finalement après plusieurs vas et viens que je devrai peut-être appeler le numéro d'urgence de EF. Ça c'est réglé. Le gars est arrivé, tout joyeux (sérieux, il était nice le gars de 22 ans :D ). Il se sentait vraiment coupable. Encore une fois, alors que je dis que je viens de Montréal, je reçois la face de "HEIN? Tu viens du Canada et tu parles pas anglais?". J'ai expliqué notre joyeuse histoire québécoise et il a compris. Il a même dit que je parlais mieux anglais que lui (il est de NY... okkkk...). </span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><br />
</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif;">Bon, finalement, il m'a mis dans une caravane, et j'ai parcouru les autoroutes (WOW QU'ELLES SONT BELLES!) de San Diego. À date, j'aime bien ce que j'ai vu de la ville. Je suis dans ma famille en ce moment. Ils sont super fins et je suis avec une colombienne qui s'appelle Luisa. Demain, elle va me montrer San D. et on va revenir avec ses amies qu'elle s'est fait à l'école et on va faire un BBQ pour le 4th of july. </span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><br />

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif;">Bon, c'est pas mal ça... je vous aime tous!</span><br />
