sentmental X's

what i'm going to miss about france (in order, probably)
1. paris. l'arc de triomphe. la tour eiffel.
2. being able to walk or take the train anywhere
3. brioche (with nutella and rasberry jam)
4. camembert de la compagne: its gooeyer and stinkier than any other kind i've found and definitely not avaliable in the states
5. dimitri- even though he's going to be thinking about pauline fucking ztune till the end of time.
6. baguettes
7. zara (and sometimes h&m)
8. margaux- even though she borrows (steals) all my shit. like today at the cafe, she had on my ring. don't worry, though. i'll get it back. forcefully.
9. cafes and tabacs- alot easier to buy your cigarettes from a cigarette store than a gas station
10. histoire de l'art class- the only class i ever regret missing
11. the metro system
12. the cool parties in paris namely at longchamp and la bagatelle
13. drinking wine and smoking a joint on his roof overlooking the cathedral
14. not understanding anything and sometimes prefering it
15. weird nicknames like: ma biche, ma puce, sara du bois, ma chat, petit chat, grand chat, bibiche, coucou, chouchou, couilles (even though it means balls...), ma belle, bijou, un deliere et plein d'autres
16. les mots avec, encore, ensuite, putain, merde, salope, chatte, bitte, jusqua, quand, comme d'habitude, et plein plein d'autres- franglais is fun
17. specialty stores- theres a yarn store right next to the hat store which is next to the lamp store
18. doggies everywhere
19. outdoor cafes and just sitting in the sun in the middle of centre ville drinking a monaco (beer with grenadine)
20. public gardens/parks/fountains
21. being able to say "its by the castle"
22. being able to buy wine/liquor at the grocery store legally (when i get home i've got two months till i can drink legally)

what i will not miss:
1. sundays when everythings closed
2. not being able to communicate and how my jokes are never understood
3. school- namely grammer, written comprehension, and langue. meaning i only like art history and orale expression.
4. the food at the foyer, my bed at the foyer, and the rules at the foyer. no boys allowed is so lame.
5. the weather. its too cold to wear shorts. wtfuck.
6. dog shit on the streets
7. over priced mixed drinks and flaming shots
8. the same lady gaga bullshit songs at l'okapie
9. being the "crazy american" for dancing anywhere music is playing
10. accent marks

first orders of business when i get back to the states:
1. get my hair did. i miss being a real blonde. and the whole "being mrs draper" thing will be easier
2. eat some real food (ajax, bbb, bottletree, newks, little tokyo, roosters, zaxbys, kiefers, hickory pit, etc)
3. sign up for summer school
4. work on my thesis (ps. i found my topic: western medicine applied to modern day mental healthcare? ...something along those lines. inspired by my personal omega-3, Mg, B-6 vitamin experiment. i'm my mother's daughter.)
5. buy a fat sack and smoke it by my pool from my new british pipe wearing my new faux AA swimmin suit and floppy hat.
6. whiten my teeth..... they've got that european look....
7. read the rest of the sandman books
8. get a kitty and teach it to be as cool as the good dr. (harry)
9. start working out or get lipo. because i've got chunk around my thighs. and its unacceptable.
10. figure out how to make clothes or get a job or start an ebay website where i sell things to make money. i think that would be cool and easy. buy some cheap ass tank tops chop em up and bedazzle. eat it gaga.
11. finish my collages with my sweet new french nature mag pics.
12. make batches of hummus and tzatziki to satisfy my needs

this is boring.
dent may's playlist for friendship bracelet is good.
