Of Toilet Paper And Kissing Guys

Yes.....I'm posting another entry today because I don't think I'll get another chance till Saturday.
I'll continue with my description of things:
5th of may;Saturday:I woke up to find myself in Claire's house.That day we talked and talked and talked.Then after lunch we went shopping in Cognac and I realised that you can find all the things here in India and they cost a lot less there.We (Me,Claire,Marion,Sukriti,Estel and Manya) shopped together and then later even went to see the places in Cognac,like some garden and the town hall.
6th of may;Sunday:I woke up quite early as we had to go to the beach with Claire. We had breakfast and then all of us(Me,Claire and her parents) went to Marions house. Then we left together for the beach. We had lunch at a restaurant where I and Sukriti ordered chicken while the others had coquillage.The chicken had other things with it which we didn't know about and they gave us some yellow rice and prawns which had their head still on and we had to break them off to eat them. I got disgusted and lest them. I already don't like prawns and here they had heads and legs which I had to break off!!!!!!!I know all the vegetarians will be disgusted.
Then, we went walking on the rocks and explored it.We saw some really pretty houses near the beach and we also went on top of these rocks right beside the ocean where the wind was blowing hard. It might have been 20 knots, god knows, but I was almost blown away. Sukriti grew cold and her ears became red so we left. In the evening,Claire's neighbour,Beatrice came over for a minute and met me,she invited me over for a drink, and when she was leaving she jokingly said she could give me some secretly. I just yelled "mechante!!!!" as she left..........
Later at dinner, we were discussing Indian food when I asked them if they had ever eaten pickle. I was shocked as all of them burst out laughing. When they stopped laughing they told me pikule was toilet paper in french slang..............
7th of may:I woke up at 6am and we left for the school at 6:30am.We picked Marion and Sukriti up on the way and reached school at 7:30am. Then, we went to see the chateau de Rochfoucauld where the cold and impolite owner who thought too much of herself but had 2 cute dogs gave us a tour.She thought Indians were dumb,didn't know anything and shewas damn irritating. I aws so happy to leave that place. That evening we went to Beatrice's place for the"drink". Her house was in a chaos because had been doin babysitting and the baby's parents had to pick it up. so they were 3 people leaving,4 entering and the other 4 fixing the house for us. In the mess,Beatrice's 15yr old son popped out of some place to greet us and was cheek kissing(normal way of greeting anyone in the whole world in France) Claire's mom. I didn't notice him and was looking in another direction when he leaned towards me suddenly to kiss. I freaked out. Firstly, I had told Claire I don't like kissing people so she warned them beforehand not to. And then this guy suddenly leans towards me.ahhhhhhh!!!!!!!!! I put my hands up and fell backwards making a face showing utter disgust. CLaire's mom quickly stopped him from leaning more forward and told him I didn't like being kissed. He looked at me normally and went to kiss Claire.

En France






YESSS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I am in France people!!!!! I am in France!!!
I am sorry for not writing. Whoever was interested in reading my blog must have left till now!!!!
Well, it isn't my fault, I didn't get the time at all.
firstly,its tenth and they are giving us a lot to study. secondly, for some stupid reason, I took up JSTS which just added to my burden of things to do. thirdly,we had to practice for the show we're going to present here. also, i had to do tons of shopping and was in a mess when i left.
I was packing till the last moment of leaving................
Well we left on the 3rd of may at 0:40 but had to go to the airport at the 2nd. It was Budh Purnima on the 3rd so I had the whole day to do my packing.The flight was 9 hours long and really bored me to hell.
They had boring games and movies which would start from the beginning if you left them for a while. The food like all plane foods was horrible................... :(
Now I'll give you a day by day description of what we did till now...........
3rd:we came....;we got our rooms........we kept our stuff and for the first time tried the hostel food which was HORRIBLE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
4th: We met our hosts* in the arts plastics class and talked to them. then we attended a class with them** and even went for sports during which we got bored and went alone to look around the school.We saw a lot of weird things....we saw a guy and a guy sitting in the full open field,kissing.
well,kissing isn't a big deal here, they do it all the time....when we arrived at the school gate there were dozens of them sitting around the gate on the walls and half of them were kissing. They were having their break and were, well......taking a break?????
but shit...these were guys and i freaked out.....I ran from that place!!!!
After lunch(I think) we went to visit Angouleme. We saw some castle where lady Marguerite was born(after which the school is named Lycee Marguerite De Valois),a cathedral,a weird statue and the buses we travelled in.
Then we met our hosts parents our family or whoever had come to pick us up and we went to their house.
*Claire Baud-Berthier is my host and shes damn sweet.She doesn't know a lot of english. She's pretty, has a cute boyfriend and is an only child. She's in premiere and loves the color purple. Her best friend is Marion***.They both live in Cognac, more than 45 kms away from Angouleme. Its good because I get to see more of France then others.I like her father end mother. Both of them are very polite and nice.I had a problem talking to Claire in the beginning but later everything became fine.Now we talk in finglish involving sign language also...........
** I met a guy in this class,Clement who knew quite a lot of english and we talked a lot. He and I sat together and talked. I thought him quite nice but later got disgusted as I saw him making out with his gf near the gate a few days later.
***Marion is Sukriti's**** host and pretty and sweet. Her father owns a wine yard and makes wine. We're camping at her house tomorrow evening.
****Sukriti is in K section and pretty sweet

I'll write rest of the things later as I'm tired and its 10:16

luv...............miss u all!!!!!!!!!!
