500th post

Yesterday, during the manhunt, it was like in an action movie. Mylene and I were in fire.

Jumping over a fence. Amost break an arm. Running till we fall.

But we were in control of the situation, don't worry.

Some people were on the roof. Some in trees.

It was our last Manhunt.

I will miss it.

And I will miss Mylene so much!

Jonathan (again)

I want to write about him again. I know that you're already starting to be bored, but I actually don't care.

Today, in reading class, we went to the Public Garden (beautiful place) and we had to read poems to 3 strangers and make them sign our sheet.

Everybody we asked to didn't want to hear us. Guess why...

Andrés signed for me, Andréa too. They are in my class.

Then Jonathan arrived (he was further) and we decided to try to ask people together. It didn't work neither. I think people thought we wanted money...

So we stopped under a willow tree and we signed each other's sheet.

He took out his camera and took a picture of a fountain just next to where we were. And then we started to talk about photography, walking in this beautiful park.

He wants me to show him some of my pictures. I'm scared! I'm now trying to choose which ones I will show him.

I learnt that he wanted to become a doctor. And maybe work for the UN.

And then we came back to class.

He lives in Ste-Julie, I think...

I have 4 days left here.

I think I will cry.

Coming back soon!

I can't believe it's already finished...

It's simpler here. Everything is easier.

I'm affraid to go to school in Montreal! I don't want to go!

It's crazy.

I was less stressed to come here, really far from my home and my family, without any friend, in English and alone than going back to school in Mtl, with people I know, friends, in my city and living in my home with my family.

It will be alright, I'm sure, but still...

To be safe : EAT GRASS (Pat's quote)

Did you know that Halifax is the Canada's rape capital?

I did, but it was the first time I didn't feel safe. Really not, though.

I was a little affraid.

There was no way to go (construction). The convenience store was closed. And those 3 tall black men were just behind us.

«-We just want to talk to two sexy girls!

-Well, we don't!

-You're racist, han! That's it, you're racist! »

They were almost screaming. They began to walk faster. They were 3 men. I don't care black or white, really. I didn't even think about it.

No more shorts at night. Except if there is a tall and large man with me.







Maybe they REALLY just wanted to be friendly...but they didn't act like it.

Calle Ocho

Do you know this song?

Well...do you know the lyrics? They are half in Spanish, half in English...

I wanted to know what the Spanish part meant, so I asked my Colombian 25 years old friend to translate it for me...

«You have a big mouth, Stop playing.»

Ahhh...OK.



This video is horrible.

I want you, I need you, I love you

Hold me close, hold me tight
Make me thrill with delight
Let me know where I stand from the start
I want you, I need you, I love you
With all my heart

Evry time that youre near
All my cares disappear
Darling, youre all that Im living for
I want you, I need you, I love you
More and more

I thought I could live without romance
Until you came to me
But now I know that
I will go on loving you eternally

Wont you please be my own?
Never leave me alonecause
I die evry time were apart
I want you, I need you, I love you
With all my heart

Elvis Presley

Ride!

Jordan and the-other-that-I-didn't-understand-the-name.

That was a crazy ride, guys!

They almost forced us to come with them.

Soon on Facebook. (As soon as I can get the video from Tamara)

Half of the price because we were from Quebec.

He took off his shirt for the camera!

We have their phone numbers.

Jordan said it was 200$ if we wanted them to stay with us all the night (!). We could have split into 5 (40$ each) but...WE DON'T WANT TO SHARE. And how can you explain that to your parents after??? «Oh...it was just ice cream, mom...» or «candies».

They said «I love you» and finally «Je t'aime!» because we were french people. So cute.

Starting now, I like anglophones.

On Entendu à Montréal

Cégep St-Laurent:

Prof: Alors… pourquoi pensez-vous qu’il est important d’apprendre l’anglais ?

Étudiant: Ben… je vois aucune autre raison que : pour nous assimiler.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

St-Laurent ROCKS, man!

I think it would be a good time to become depressed...

Mathieu, this picture is for you...

I'm on a boat

The Bounty

That's one of the boats used in the 2nd Pirates of the Caribbean. Johnny Depp went on it...ME TOO! I walked where HE walked! I touched the helm HE touched! It was a magnificent ship. I was really excited!

Crystal Crescent Beach

We went to the beach today. It's supposed to be one of the best in Nova Scotia. A clear turquoise sea, wonderful. Waves were gigantic...and very cold!

I ran in the ocean with 4-5 other girls, it was terrific! I'm really proud of myself because it was like 2 celsius!

When I came back, I had sand everywhere (I mean...everywhere). (Remember, having sex on a beach is NOT a good idea. That was my advice for today.) Haha.

I've got sunburns too...I look like a little lobster, it's cute. (By the way, last week, I tasted Pat's lobster and I ate some fish! Actually, I enjoyed the fish, but I'm not ready for lobster yet...It's already a BIG improvement.)

Pat and Tamara drew on my arm. A big heart with the letters F,P and T inside.

It was a beautiful day!

CREW

The Tall ships are in town...with their CREW.

Not any crew...ZHE BEST CREW EVER.

You should have seen them...smoking hot in their white uniforms...





Halifax is the place to be this summer.

The blue shirt guy

I don't know his name, but I can tell you that he is one of the most attractive guys I've ever seen.

Essentially physically.

I think I saw him before...somewhere...but I can't remember where...

He is a really good guitar player too...maybe there is a link...

Anyway...

Devin

He is my listening/speaking teacher...

and he is hot.

Beautiful eyes...

I can't be inattentive during his class. Never.

Obsessed by his eyes.

Basketball coach too...nice body.

He talks about sociology, history, and all the social sciences.

Everybody likes him.

I try to keep telling myself that he is my teacher...

Laurent, this picture is for you...

See that?

;)

My dear Don Mills reader stopped to come...about a week ago.

I hope he or she will come back...

In my stats, the graphic looks like the electrocardiogram of someone that just died.

The heartbeat has stopped.

Choose

I finished The Notebook yesterday. I was smiling. A true smile.

Now, I have to choose between Lolita, Life of Pi and The Overlook.

I know you don't care.

Naughty

1. At the Freaky Friday party...
- Where is Hélène?
- Euh...
- Over there! Dancing on the table!
- Oh!
That's how I went to dance on a table. Yes...me! Hehe. It was fun.



2. Horseback ridind. There was a pool too.
I put on my black bathing suit.
Guys didn't recognize me when they saw me. Funny.
I heard a guy talking to another girl: «Why you don't have a bathing suit like that, you? It's sexy»
Haha
Almost 10 girls said that they loved my bathing suit.


Now, I have a white X on my back...grr.



3. I thought about that: We are not allowed to be with someone of the opposite sex in the same bedroom if the door isn't open...but they never talked about the showers!

Haha. I'm stupid.

I shouldn't think about that...it's wrong.

No, not YOUR Jo.

No, he doesn't have a yellow car (I think).

He is just a nice guy. Blue-eyed with a nice camera (that's a really good point :D). Tall. Curly light brown hair. With glasses. In my class.

We have made some debates in listening and speaking class. My team against his.

Well...We were debating. The others were listening. Almost.

Me against him. Looking at each other eyes. Smiling after each argument the other says because it was good. It was a game. Clearly a game.

And I won. He was on my side anyway. Both of us were just smiling. We had a great time.

It's good to argue just for fun. Without hurting anyone's feelings. It has been a long time since...

I missed that.

I miss that.

I miss you.




Anyway. I don't know what to think about that. I'm confused. I don't even know if I want this to evolve. I don't think he is interrested. Me neither, though. But there was something in this eye contact I can't forget. I don't know what it is. And I want to know.

Any idea?

What do you think?

Should I talk to you about Jonathan?

Well...maybe after the dinner...

Chaotic thoughts

Do you know how bad are the fireworks for the environment?

Have you seen the Al Gore movie "The Inconvenient Truth"?

How are you today?

Do you miss me? I'm sure you don't.

I hadn't dreamt in english yet...

How to break up 101

Thanks to your parents.

Well...

I will go to the beach this afternoon.


Lifeguards wear blue shirts here.


In NS, we write harbour. With a U.


I went to a No clothes party Friday night.


I went to a Hawaiian pool party yesterday.


I went shopping too. I spent all my money. I bought 4 books: Lolita, The Notebook, The Life of Pi and a Michael Connelly book (finally!), Patricia said it was a really good author... I smiled and I bought it.


Men are handsome in Nova Scotia. (The majority of them) And they are so polite! It's CRAZY. I think I'm gonna move here.


I went to the Farmer's Market. I shared a strawberry-chocolate-whipped cream-cinnamon crêpe (that was amazing) with Pat.


I had a Canada flag on July 1st.


I went to the Halifax Citadel on Canada day.


I took a really nice picture:

(They are cute, aren't they? Nice skirts! haha)
