yesterday was ground hog day

went to church had to wake up soooooo early and then it was freezing cold and we couldnt get out of the house b.c rochelle was pushing the door instead of pulling it. didnt wait at the station and then we got lost and this guy asked to go throught the turn-stall with R and she didnt know what he said and just said 'oui' cause thats what she always responds with and then we were so confiused and lost and there were people in ble jackets doing train sureveyinng just like my job with the traffic surveyin! and we asked them but still got lost dome more andgot on some wrong trains going in wrong directions and then the guy we illegally got through to the staition kept following us and trying to help. went to the wrng versaille station and walked allllll the ay across town trying to find the right place and to start at with our directins to the chapel and then asked some biker guys from parisand there was this creepy pigeon who had a crippled foot and it was SO GROSS and following me and then we finally found the correct station and walked to church and were late but since its 3 hourslong we didnt miss that much and then i used a headset translator and that was really cool and then the missionaries kept talking to me and there were a lot of them and we stayed for brek the fast and it was pretty much al yucky foods with meat in them that i didnt like but there were lots of americans who talked to us and these two black girls from california who were soooooo funny. and then we went home on the right/ train and it was rpettty and ate my entire avacado but it was so big and i had to eat the whole thing so that it wouldnt turn brown and it made me feel sick so i took a nap and then woke up at 8 ish and ate dinner and our 'family' wasnt there b/c they went to some really cool concert without iviting us. my friend summer was apparently on a train and had her feet up and they gave her a ticket for 50 euros! holy freakkingcrap. her 'family' says that she shoul have pretended to tnot speak frenchand say that she had no money and then have them send it to her home in texas b/c then she wouldnt have had to pay it. SO if that ever happens to me i am saying that. [i totally had my feet up tday and the ticket-checking guy just told me to put them down please.... wahoo breaking the law!] I WENT SHOPPING Eyesterday and it was soooooo expensive b/c we kept accidentally going to the Mode sections of everywhere and thats like high fashion. opps. anyways im getting really good at have to talk to strangers and theyre mostly really nceto me. except for waiters, they always seem really annoyed at my broken french and at the fact that somtetimes all i want to eat is french fries [frites] they come to the table and say 'just fries” when they bring them. its annoying.
