Met up with Matthew before our French class and we went to Jean Pierre’s Patisserie for tea. I tried their Chocolat & Moët et Chandon flavoured macarons! The chocolate one was heavenly but the Moët one was too strong for me I think! I love going to this cafe, always gives me the Parisian vibe with their French servers etc! After that, we went for a stroll to the Art Gallery and then Julien, a friend from Paris texted to see if we wanted to meet him at la bibliothèque. He wanted to meet up earlier today but I forgot to tell him.. He helped us with les devoirs, more like forcing me to do my devoirs, I was too tired et unmotivated. C’est tout! Il pleut des cordes ajh et it sure was quite a frenchy day.

Bonne pâque

Something random I did today: I followed Nicholas Sarkozy on Twitter and told him “bonne pâque, ne mangez pas beaucoup du chocolat”

Bonne pâque! Taking the moment to ponder on the true meaning of Easter. 3 nails + 1 cross = 4given.
