Some days I wake up Laughing...

Sorry I haven't posted in a while. Everything is going by so quickly and it feels like I updated this yesterday.

Last weekend I went to a concert, it was amazing. A few weekends ago I did community service through that program I told you about, Orange Rockcorps, and this weekend it paid off! I got to see David Guetta, Akon, Kelly Rowland, Busta Rhymes, and 2 french artists, Razor Light, and Sefyu. The concert was at the Zenith center in northeast Paris. I went with Jamal and my host brother and had a great time!

The next day, saturday, was Nuit Blanche. I mentioned this in another post but just to remind you. Nuit Blanche translates to "white night," and for us americans it means an all-nighter. This time however everyone in Paris had a nuit blanche (www.nuitblanche2009.com). All the museums were open all night to accompany the multiple events taking place all around the city. My friend Wade and I went to the Gardens of Luxembourg where we found the biggest disco ball in the world. It was the size of a small mansion and suspended over a lake by a crane. There was a substantial line just to get into the gardens but Wade and I somehow found a way in.....anyway the gardens were full of dancing people wondering how they made Pluto look like a disco ball.

I got home at 8 in the morning and slept until my host family woke me up for lunch.

I know it's not New Years yet, but on Sunday I made 3 different resolutions.
1. No more nutella covered waffles. They are deliciously delicious but each one comes with about 5, 000 calories and I don't have the money or the metabolism to sustain my eating habits of the past few weeks for much longer.

2. I will run everyday to get back in shape for the Nike+ Human Race 10k...

3. Study! I need to study and get ahead so that I can continue travel around and enjoy myself without worrying about my world crashing down when my plane touches down in the States at the end of January.

Now then, today is Wednesday! I've run everyday so far, I have been studying and reading ahead....but I've also eaten a waffle every day this week...and one had caramel on it too....amazing. I think I'm going to find a support group to help me with this addiction. Waffle Addicts Anonymous anyone?? With the internet as my witness, starting now I will be waffle sober! So long as the powdered sugar was actually powdered sugar and not some other highly addictive powdery substance...I should be able to quit cold turkey without waking up in the middle of the night in a sweat...

Also, FYI, I have booked trips to Brussels, Belgium and Stockholm, Sweden...kind of random I know, it was a spur of the moment thing. But 20 euros roundtrip from Paris to Sweden? Who would pass that up? Not this guy.

On that note I must go study and run before dinner. I bid you adieu!
