I woke up about an hour ago- at 4am, and I’m feeling a little nauseous. I blame it all on the jetlag. Plus, I’m feeling pretty crappy about my french, but I guess it’s just my first day so I shouldn’t expect much but it’s making me feel pretty stupid. I don’t think the children mind all that much, they just like having someone to listen to them while they ramble on in french :)
Today I spent all of my time with the family. We had a really nice lunch and then played with bubbles and bikes in the garden, and I got to see their chicken and rooster! Afterwards, we walked to where the children have music and gymnastics classes on wednesdays, we also stopped at a boulangerie. It was so beautiful O.O It was totally unreal. The pastries were so delicate and complex, how will I ever be capable of making such beautiful things?!? Before dinner, the children all gave me small crafts that they made in school as presents. (I introduced them to oreos and now they won’t stop thanking me/trying to feed me some!!
Hopefully today will go by fast so I can sleep again. So lazy, I know, but the jetlag is destroying me! I think I’ll go for a walk around the neighborhood and try to find my school. I might have to go there myself but I’m not sure? I was under the impression that my host mom would help me out since my french is terrible and I don’t even know where the school is. We’ll see!
Also, I’m ordering a cable to connect my camera to my computer, that way I can post pictures. It’ll be a little while before it gets here, so I’m sorry if my blog is kind of pictureless. This will change soon!
Anyways, it’s 6am and I’m going to try to sleep for a few more hours. A bientot!
