8 days

Well, I knew the peace between my mother and I wouldn't last that long. Today she tried to test me by stealing my fries and was "blown away" and "shocked" when I told her no. I told her she had to ask, not just take. I'm proud to say I held my own when she tried to guilt trip me. I told her she shouldn't test me like that.

Other than that, today was really nice! I got to talk to the beau, and Amanda who has some very exciting things going on in her life right now!

I also got to visit a very quaint/peaceful chapelle by the Bon Marche. My homecoming outfit is almost complete now too!! How exciting!

Tomorrow we switch hotels and are off to Monet's gardens and hanging out with Denise.

Love and Peace

Something To Write About

I wish I had something interesting to write about.

All I can say is that I'm excited to go to France, but I don't want to leave Neal behind. And it's sort of the same thing when he goes to Japan. So thoughts of our separation have been filling my mind lately.

As for writing here when I'm in France, I'm not sure how often I'll do it. Mm. Caillaud wants us to keep a journal in French of what happens and our observations. Because I'll be handwriting about everything that is going on, I know I won't want to do it again here.

This just might be a venting blog then, and then it'll probably just say the same things over and over again.

So we'll all just have to see what happens. It might be easier to just do video updates.

I'm off to spend the day with Neal and then maybe we'll be heading to Arya's for her Be Our Guest party.

Love,
Elle
