We're not graded in theater, which I guess is good because I have no idea what they'd grades us on.
Speaking of theater, we have our "performance" (emphasis on the quotation marks) this friday. This basically means that we have people doing scenes and monologues and me singing, and all of us doing this weird step thing and this horrible horrible dance we learned between noon and 2pm over and over again until people feel like throwing things at us.
So yeah, I'm only not passing Bio, but considering the average grade in that class is a 9, I'm chill. The teachers also give us pretty harsh comments about the class and us personally. I'm gonna take a picture of my report card/comments and I'll post it when I do my next big upload.
Today and yesterday were red. This may mean nothing to you, but this is the devil's sentence to me. Basically how we pay for electricity is on a system of colored days. Before 6am and after 10pm is always cheaper than during the day. Blue is cheap, White is semi expensive, and Red is when we don't use electricity if we can help it. This means no heating, very few lights, no computer, no tv until 10, etc. The worst is definitely the no heating part, because they choose for it to be red when the temperatures are below freezing. Always. What we do is we light a fire, and everyone is in the main room all evening long. This can be good or bad depending on the mood of everyone, as you might imagine. Yesterday was good for a while and then suddenly everyone was in a hellishly bad mood (quite possibly caused by ben's bitchiness) and I went to bed early. Tonight I was planning on uploading more picture to my picture site, but since there is no computer usage during red days (at least not the amount of time it would take me to upload all of those pictures,) I'll put 'em up soon. This week I swear. What I have is a couple of on-the-bus-on-the-way-to-a-play-before-my-batteries-died pictures, one of the view at school in the morning, and a bunch of our run through for the "performance". I wish we did a real play... better yet a musical.
I got invited to a new years eve party!!! It is with some girls in my class who I've been trying to be friends with, so I'm pretty stoked about that.
I found this book on american culture in the library, and there are parts of it that are oh so good that I had to rip them out. Since I'm on the school computers (re:red days), I can't very well take out ripped out pages of a book from their very own collection, so for now, you're just going to have to imagine the brilliance until the governement decides that its warm enough to not charge us a fortune for turning on appliances. This book has made me realize why they think American society is the way they think it is -- because this is the only book on america, it was written by a french man living in New York in the 70's. 'nuff said.
As far as the Harry Potter game goes, you guys suck. I got two responses... Jessica won with 13/20 and heidi had 8/20 and she admitted that she only did it so I would write her an email. If you guys still want to play, you can, but seriously!!
I am told that people read this. I don't think I believe it.
It is 11:11 and I am fricken hungry. Nothing is open in this forsaken town until noon, and sometimes not until 2. Lame.
French girls are starting to look all the same with their tight pants and ridiculously fashionable jackets, their thick scarves, sweepy bangs and overly layered and high-lighted hair... It is freaking me out just a little bit.
That is all for now I guess?

its 9 am and im still procrastinating on my studying (i did the dishes for hellish sakes)... i think u should write me an email just for the sake of loving me:-p.. i don't have time for guessing games x__x.. erg..-goes to clean my room as to no study some more-
I looked at the list. Checked my knowledge of French Harry Potter words in my brain. Discovered that there was no match - whatsoever - and decided that the difference between entering and getting 0 out or 20 and not entering at all was so slim as to take the Hubble Telescope to find it. Besides, I wouldn't want you to contribute to France's energy woes by sending me an e-mail anyway. I just enjoy living vicariously in France.
Have a great Christmas! And keep writing this wonderful blog.
Your Ersatz Youth Leader,

Share the name of the book on American culture, and I'll see if it's carried by Amazon.
Congratulations on the grades!
Um, sadface, I won the game and didn't get an email back! I'm going to go cry in a corner now...jk.
Congrats on the grades. I got grades too yesterday and they were like better than my high school grades. I got passes in Guitar and Intro to Animal Science. I got a B in my other animal science class (like anatomy and stuff), and I got an A- in Ethnic Studies and in English. Great stuff.
