Away in Paris......


Tiring trip from Paris over the last weekend.... Flights were ok, just that we met some "middle east" like people who are so inconsiderate. In the return flight, Faith & me was seated separately, anyway we didn't ask for a change of seats as we understood this flight was a full flight. However, these group of middle eastern youngster just sat together without informing the air stewardess and caused so much inconveniences. Worse they brought some kind of expanded cabin luggages which cannot be fit into the cabin. "I was so scare it might be a bomb inside... hee..!!!" anyway the stewardess was nice to bring their luggages into the pilot area.

Well this trip to Paris was rather interesting, basically, tourists all around. We are glad to be able to bunk in with Francoise & her sister during the trip. And we met Francoise's boyfriend, Pascal...! Pascal was driving us around Paris with his car & he commented that, the french in Paris were gone, cause the traffic was amazing smooth, especially the route he & Francoise planned was supposed to be the busiest streets in Paris. Hee... Thank God for that.

See many interesting things, well don't really like the catherals, like Notre Dame & Sacre Coeur. They looks rather like "black inns" to me. It was dark & there are many weird drawings, sculptures & so on. The amazing thing is they have the sculptures of the apostles, like, Peter holding to a key, Moses holding a book, James or John the Bapist, holding on his own head (caused he was beheaded by Herod?). Anyway the most irritating thing is, there was this chinese young lady, taking photos everywhere (which was forbidden) use all the flash here & there & posed in a very irritating way, like for example she posed for a photo in a confession booth, posed before statue after statue in a praying position. She almost took the whole floor plan of the catheral.

Well, many stories to tell for this trip, but anyway we bought the last 7 issues of "Slamdunk" in french :P hee..... & i finished reading them liao :P well, i read those conversation i can understand lah, when my french is better, i will read again :P
Tomorrow will be my 1st lesson, so exciting but so tired as well. Need to do a placement test, so hope won't end up in beginner again :P

alrite, time to ZZzz..... Xiao ah xiao er lang.... bei ze na shu bao shang xue tang.......
