so i’m back!
been back since tuesday nite…but of course right after vacation teachers give TONS of work….essays/ labs/assessments! 
but vacation was really fun…not as exciting as some other ones (we didn’t really GO anywhere exotic, ) but is was fun anyway…
first we went to lausanne…say my godmother and celebrated her birthday….with FONDUE!
then we drove to france….ahh……long drive, but we listened to an agatha christie mystery, so it wasn’t boring at all…
we got to provence….and ate a lot of yummy food and bought a new house!!!
its very empty now….we’re gonna need to work a lot with furniture and stuff….but it will be exciting! everything is white…so we have to paint paint paint! my room will be a light yellow or peach i think…and i’m gonna have a canopy bed…hehe…ok need to stop thinking about that…
we also got a dog with the house…he’s a german shepard and his name is rock…forgot a pic of him though! he’s sooo cute! 
here’s a pic of the new place….


STEF, YAS, MELODY: you are all invited to come and visit next summer (don’t worry we’ll have furniture!
) we can also travel by ourselves to cannes/monte carlo cuz it’s not too far away! )
then we flew to london…best part of the trip! our hotel was in a really good location…near everything! we saw 3 amazing theatre pieces…loved them all!
first night we watched As You Desire Me with Kristin Scott Thomas, which was a really good play. She’s a really good actress as well….the costumes were beautiful also…
saturday mom and i went to the National Portrait gallery and then to Waterstones, where i bought a lot of books….especially agatha christie poirot books…hehe…the on saturday nite, we saw:

i’ve seen this in boston a couple times, but when i was little. this was the best…the music is so pretty and moving…it’s perfect!!! i’m glad i saw it again, especially after reading the book. i love the songs!!! the ending is so sad…we were all teary eyed (even my dad!) at the end!

on sunday we went and visited my dad’s grandmother, so my great-grandmother (the nanny!) who is almost 89! we met her for lunch and then went to her house…i hadn’t seen her since i was 7, so it was really nice. she’s very sweet and optimistic!

on monday, we went to the tower of london and then to HARROD’s! hehe…didn’t get that much though, because they had a lot of american stuff….which is of course cheaper in the states! later we saw an agatha christie play:

it was another good mystery…couldn’t guess the ending!
tuesday flew back home…and worked on world literature assignment…which is due in MAY 2007 but my teacher wants us to work on it NOW!!
stress for something in 2 years…..
school was nice….i didn’t miss people during vacation, but i did miss them and loved them all even more when i saw them after only 1 1/2 weeks!
but nothing big happened at school….TOK essay/ bio lab….blah blah…oh and now…since im “so good” in math i get to work with karl and go AHEAD of the class syllabus…I DON’T WANT that! i just want to go at the normal pace cuz i already am taking 4 higher levels….grrrr! plus my seat was moved….so i can’t sit next to paul/ ollie 
well….half day today…..YAY
just relaxing…writing this and tv/movies. i’m annoyed at MUN….they get 3 days off school…..grrr….and that means that i’ll be all alone in french class….i always have so much fun…but my friends are ditching me!!
HAPPY BIRTHDAY ISABEL!!
so i was tagged by stef….5 random facts about me….
i can taste food by smelling it (is that normal…i dunno)
i hate putting things in my closet…too lazy…they all pile up on my bean bag until they mysteriously appear in my closet cuz of my mom/cleaning lady
i could spend thousands of dollars at sephora/jasmine sola
im good at math and the beginning of the school year and i suck at the end
i will never ever sell my 100 + stuffed animals…they each have a memory
and that’s it….can’t tag anyone but yas and melody…..

isa’s party tomorrow! and wow this post was chaotic!
