but i am le tired.

tired, physically and also of blogging, when i already send personal emails back and forth with what ive been doing. siiiiigh. anyway, got home from paris 2 nights ago, and back in the "grind," if you can call it that. according to my apple counter, 22 days til i am home once more- crazy! so soon.

a short recap of what i did in paris- inquire for more details. :)

tuesday 11/21
- fly into paris late at night, check into hostel with the rudest employee of all time, SLEEP

wed 11/22
- wake up pretty early- big group of us meets up with jo in marait (spelling?)
- picasso museum and lunch of hamburgers and fries mmmm
- notre dame, some more wandering with meg
- meet ashley, jon, and jordan back at the hostel
- dinner near our hostel- salmon #1 of the week, pretty tasty
- eiffel tower- carousel and nutella crepes mmmmm
- nightclub called queen- alex found out it was a gay club later on, but it was ladies night so we got in free. quite an experience

thurs 11/23
- shopping in the morning with ashley- H&M!!!
- lunch with ashley, jon, and jordan in st germain
- get lost on way to musee d'orsay- eventually make it, didnt really scratch the surface in the time we had :( but superneat
- big argument over thanksgiving dinner- frustration but eventually lebanese food (?) that was delish
- back to the bar in our hostel for some cooldown time

fri 11/24
- climb most of the eiffel tower in the pouring rain- elevator up the last bit, ashley took a little dive on the stairs- oh my!
- metroed to montmarte for lunch and wandering
- arc de triomphe (spelling?) and champs elysees real quick
- back to hostel to argue a refund out of the people and get a quick nap in
- louvre free for everyone under 26- woohoo! saw the mona lisa, madonna of the rocks, nike, some vermeers, other very cool things, but i need to go back. it was too big!
(thats what she said, teddy)
- hassle trying to get to restaurant to meet jo but when we do- mmmmmmm. had the "pleasure meal" of a goat cheese pastry with salad, and a great salmon, much wine, and a taste of ashley and nell's dessert platter of love. ow ow!
- back to hostel bar AGAIN

sat 11/25
- the boys went out and brought back baguettes, butter, OJ, etc for us to eat in the hostel
- in what will go down in history, i somehow misplaced the receipt for JUST the sheets, not anything else, so i did not get back the money i paid as a deposit for our 6 sets of sheets. bullshit, 3 ducks hostel. breathe, laura.
- get very lost on the way to the airport on the metro, end up at wrong terminal and the group splits into two- we end up making it to the flight barely, and convince the people to wait for our friends who got taken out of the city (wtf?). we all make it home, thank god.

other notes:
- traveling in big groups- never again, so so so frustrating
- why did i end up having to be the mom?
- losing money to jerk hostel workers sucks
- our hostel had bathrooms/showers outside, and very little space for 4 people in one room.. close quarters with jon, nell and ash.
- i could live on crepes forever
- i want to go back to paris.
