Random.
So, spring break’s been over for a week now. Shiloh’s still in New York (she got to see her mom :) ). Najat lost dad, he’s been very sick for a while, she decided not to go back now not to make it harder. I feel so sorry for her, I cannot imagine… Pablo, the family dog suddenly died. He was fine saturday, started to look weak sunday night and died overnight monday at the...

Hey, btw, IT'S SPRING BREAK!
So for Spring Break, what did I do? It’s only a week so I don’t understand while people are acting like crazy about it. Some travel all across the world, just to spend 2 days there. We spent the first week end in Nebraska’s countryside to watch the Cranes migration (big birds that you cannot find in Europe). Cause they come from Mexica and stop in Nebraska to find food and take...

Phillie/NY - 1
Je sens que c’est le bon moment pour raconter mes quelques jours de vacances. Le mardi soir Eva était très malade alors on n’était pas sur de partir le lendemain. (Je serai partie directement a NYC avec David et Lilly du jeudi). On s’est levé très tot du mercredi matin et Eva allait mieux, du coup, direction l’aéroport de Omaha avec Eva, Lilly et Eric. Vol...

Vous connaissez le mythe du “Je critique quelqu’un, après je m’apercois qu’il est juste derrière et ensuite c’est super awkward parce que je ne pas sure qu’il m’aie entendue mais je dois tout de même m’assoir à côté de lui au prochain cours” ? Et ben c’est pas un mythe. Ca m’apprendra a dire que Nick est annoying et...

#3168
Ok, I know, I still have to talk about New York. Meanwhile, I’m gonna share the story of my locker. Indeed, my locker, Larry (I just named it right now) #3168, at the end of the science hallway, 3rd level (2ème étage) has been devoted to me since the begining of the school year. Very usefull to put my heavy coat during winter and my 1200 pages math book. Unfortunatelly, he has now some...

Totally random.
Putain, j’y crois pas. J’ai revé de mon prof de chimie. Y’avais trop monde dans ma classe donc je pouvais pas faire l’experience. Je decide donc d’aller en chimie honors a la place. Et mon prof me file un chewing gum a la fraise. Weird. #?

A little bit of cooking.
J’etais pas une grande cuisinière avant. Mais maintenant, du moment que j’ai les ingredients, rien ne m’effraye. Quand je rentre du lycée a 15h et que je n’ai pas mangé, j’aime bien me faire une omelette. Ah, et au fait, bonne chance pour celui qui cherche une boite de 6 oeufs aux States. La taille normale c’est 12 et y’a des boites de 18 et de 36. Une...

Lock-down drill.
Au lycée, on a eu un test de “lockdown emergency drill”. Autrement dit, un exercice d’urgence destiné a nous préparer en cas d’attaque criminelle. Peu courant en France xD Ca sert donc a simuler l’entree d’un intrus dans le lycée, qui peut etre une personne/un eleve armé, un terroriste, un preneur d’otage ou encore une armee enemie. Contrairement a une...

To tell you the truth, I don't even realize that...
What I’m really waiting for, is to see Julie’s painting. She’s gonna have her painting exposed in an art show in NY called “Friends in high places”, that’s the reason why we go there. And she did not want to show us the painting before she’s mailing it. She spent the whole last week painting it, cause the gallery wants a “really big piece”....

That's what we call "real life problems".
Tarzan is swinging back and forth on his grapevine. As he swings he goes back and forth over the river bank, going alternately over land and water. Janes decides to mathematically model his motion and start her stopwatch. Let t be the number of seconds the stopwatch reads and let y be the number of meters Tarzan is from the river bank. Assumes that y varies sinusoidally with t, and that y is...

A couple of random things I'd like to say.
D’abord, ca fait plusieurs semaines que j’essaye de savoir si je pense en anglais ou en francais. Pas moyen de savoir, parce que forcement, des que j’y fais attention, ca fausse le jeu et y’a plus moyen de dire si c’est naturel ou pas. Ca fait peut etre deja plus de six mois que je suis ici, mais des que l’eau de la douche me semble un peu froide, je gueule...

I was sick as hell yesterday.
The first thing you have to know is I am NEVER sick. I have not pucked due to illness for years. Ok, maybe sometimes I’m sick, but only when I drank too much the night before. (especially when I drank old crapy home-made cockails) And when it happens to me to fall sick, that’s only during week ends or holidays. Take the last time I was sick for example, I was pucking ‘cause I...

Le Super Bowl: l'Amerique dans toute sa splendeur.
C’est LE match de football americain le plus attendu de l’année. La finale du sport le plus apprécié du pays. New Orlean Saints vs Indianapolis Colts  31 - 17  Les gens organisent des tonnes de fetes ou tout le monde passe la soirée entre amis a regarder la télé. Chacun choisit son camps (les Saints pour moi), ceux qui s’interessent au match commentent les actions et les...

For David's birthday, we went out to dinner.
David: It feels nice to be with my family again. I really missed it! Actually, family plus one.
Eric: Since she stays with us, she's part of the family!
Julie: Of course she is!
My internal thoughts: It's just SO nice. Guess what, it makes me all happy :)

"They are here! David's home! DAVID'S HOME!"
David, c’est le fils de 27 24 ans qui réemmenage dans la maison familiale après avoir quitté son boulot à Washinghton DC. Il reste ici le temps qu’il trouve un job au Nebraska. Il a passé 6 mois à Paris et parle francais, il est aussi resté 2 mois à Taiwan. So excited to have a new brother! :D #?

I wish Jacob were my brother. SO. BADLY.
Jake left today to drive back to his college in Saint Louis before letting me the time to know him better. He’s not a in a good mood when he wakes up, he’s rude with people making cookies for him but he’s a good brother with Lilly and Eva. In fact, I hardly know him but I already kinda miss him. Shit, I will never be able to be an only child anymore.

I wanna talk about food.
La plupart savent déjà que j’ai déménagé chez les Phillips. Quand? Hier, samedi 9 janvier, un peu après 11h30. Vous allez dire que je parle tout le temps de bouffe. Ouaip, peut etre, shit, I suck >.< Donc les Phillips sont une famille juive et ils respectent tous les principes du cacherouth Autrement dit, - Pas de fruits de mer (facile a vivre) - Pas de lapin et de cheval (je...
