another day another, another euro...

Hi! It's been awhile! I've been busy slacking off, so I didn't have a lot of time to write...
Anyway, now that I CAN write, I have A BUNCH of stuff to tell you!!! (By the way, I'm writing and typing this all, so all credit goes to me)
So first off, we are gonna be doing something like find the 1-up mushroom! For those who haven't heard of it, you basically just find the pig throughout the pictures. It's gonna be called: find the angry birds pig. Now then, the photographs with the pig will be COMPLETELY randomized, so you will have to actually LOOK carefully in each picture I post!

Second, I've been going a LOT of places lately, and I usually take the pictures with my phone, but in France, or at least Paris, there are a lot pickpockets out there. I know this first hand because my mother actually got pick pocketed by a woman. Or at least ALMOST got pick pocketed. She caught a woman's hand INSIDE her jacket pocket, and boy Mama got REALLY mad and later on was probably glad that she busted that pickpocket. And the reason why I tell you this is because I simply don't want MY phone stolen. End of story- bye-bye... just kidding.        

And last, I finally found a HUGE advantage about people thinking I'm a girl. Which is wonderful. So I'm at a science museum, which by the way was really cool. I needed to go to the bathroom badly, and for some reason, the French think it's cool to make the boys bathroom hidden or something, so I couldn't find find the boys' bathroom. So I just decided to... (should I really be telling you this?) go to the women's bathroom. Not that I had a choice or anything, but let me tell you, it's a LOT cleaner in there than in the boys room. Also, there were a LOT of women in there, and they just glanced at me, then looked back. But I actually saw ANOTHER guy in there that was bald, so that was awkward. But mainly I just have to say, that's a BIG score for me. Aw yeah.

So, let's get on with the pictures. Now remember, next time I won't remind you to search for the pig. Oh! And speaking of the pig, if you DO find the pig, please put where you found him in the comments. Whoever finds him the most until December 31 will get a French souvenir!

Now then, let's look at some pics!

Now, those were some nice pictures weren't they!

Now, I'm certainly learning a whole lot, and unfortunately YOU HAVE TO AS WELL! I'm very sorry.   So, each day, I will give you a French Word of the Day. So, we might as well start today!
French Word of the Day: ours en peluche ( ORS- ON-PUH-LOOSH)
Translation: stuffed bear. (teddy bear)
I mainly wanted to choose this one because I have one for myself! His name is: Violet. Now before you all say that's a lame name, the French pronounce the word purple vee-oh-lay. So it sounds good that way. Or at least to me.

À bientôt!
