I'M HERE I'M HERE I'M HERE I'M HERE!!

I'm sitting here eating dinner with the Japanese guy who's taking French too, and is living with the same family as me, and I've come to the conclusion that Japanese and French are very hard to make coherent. No offence Aki, but Je ne comprend pas! It's kinda like Soy Sauce on a baguette, some people could do it, but it doesn't make sense on your end.

But before I get into the living arrangements, let's get back to where I left off...

Last meal in Calgary/Canada was an amazing feast of tandoori chicken pizza, fries, and shisha at Narah's [HIGHLY RCCMDD] with Camcam. Then got home, dusted off my passport, and hightailed it out of a sea of cowboy hats and drunken promises (sorry Stampede, nothing personal, but...you're not what you used to be!)

Had a heart to heart with Dad at the airport, got some worldy advice, and then boarded the plane for a nine hour and a half love-in with 250 of my closest amigos!

It would have gone much smoother, but I forgot one crucial piece, not my passport, not my wallet, not my sense of style or sense of humour...no..much much worse! MY CHAPSTICK!! Nine and a half hours of tear inducing, lip-licking burning! I even asked the flight attendant if she could find any lipsil in the Sahara disguised as a Boeing 767! She said she'd get right on it...that was 20 minutes into the flight. Upon deplaning, she jolts to life, "Oh, I'm so sorry, I meant to get you that lip stuff, didn't I?" YA YUH DID BIYATCH!!

Oh well...The flight went by quicly, 9 hours and the worst is over!

Now on for the good stuff...

Here's what I've learned about Europe so far

- Germany looks like broccali form above

- I saw a nuclear power plant, and I started humming the sympsons!

- The Germans fieign organization, by way of a schmassive airport that looked like it was organized by someone with tourettes! lines, chairs, everywhere...

The highlight was definitely mawing down a $5 bagel in the duty free. Worth every penny!

Ok, now on to Switzerland...well let's just say that I have THE KILLEREST LIVING SITCH!!! I.E. ALOOOOOOOOONE!! My Japanese commorade de chambre (? Kelse? Am I using that right?:) was showing me around the appartment (which is like Third World Barbie and Japanese KAWAII barby exploded on the walls!

But I have my own bed, my own stove, my OWN FREAKIN VIEW OF THE FRENCH ALPS!!! And I'm ready to learn, at least I think I'm ready to learn French!

Ok, well that last sentance took me about 5 minutes to write cos I am falling asleep at the keyboard! So I will make this sweet and in pointform

- I am safe

- Mom, Josianne isn't a cougar like we had previously anticipated

- I've been doing a lot of WWMD? What would Megan/Mike do? You guys think differently, but help me reach to a goal that works for me! I like that balance!

- Japanese people make learning french difficult, especially when they're english is nicht gud!

ANYWAYS...I'ma go pass out now! I'll keep you posted on if I survived my own first day of school!!

Love y'all! DON'T DO DRUGS AND KEEP IN TOUCH!!
