For New Year's Eve we went to Nicolas' apartment to celebrate. He had other friends over as well. The theme of the night was Wild Rainbow....so we dressed as the 60's/70's. Just for fun.
Here's the arc de triomphe at night. Isn't it pretty?

Happy New Year!
well back in Paris and it's surprising not that cold. Lucky for me, I guess. I think it's about the same in Miami as in Paris....so Paris is warm and Miami is cold.

this weekend
so we had a decently eventful weekend.
Friday night we bought take out chinese food from the place around the corner. Not good =P Will probably not go back.
Saturday, we went with my friend Maggie to the Salon du Chocolate. As the name suggest, it is all about chocolate. It's a huge exposition all about chocolate. We got to try a lot of samples and Germain bought some cookies he really likes. In his defense, it was cheaper than at the supermarket. They had chocolate everything there! However, not every booth gave things out to try. =( but we did get a fair share of samples.
Today was the rugby world championship. France was playing against New Zealand. Unfortunately we loss. Germain is quite upset about that. It was only by one point too!!
Afterwards we went with some friends to the Catacombs. We had to wait an hour and a half before going in. Luckily it was a pretty day out.
Catacombs are where they moved 6 million human remains. They excavated all the remains from local cemeteries and buried them underground. We had to walk down a long spiral staircase and through a series of tunnels. There were a lot of bones and skeletons. Pretty creepy.
It was a pretty long walk.
And tomorrow back to school. But this week is only my two hour class. I don't have my phonetics class. yay ^_^
