hello. can i make friends with you, Confident?

i know i'm taking forever to post up all the peeks taken at france but mon stubborn fingers still want to do it. i'll post the remainings as soon as i have the time to. school's draining me out. prolly just cos my body ain't used to it. too much dosage of bumming around can do you bad. tee hee hee.

monday doesn't seem so bad anymore. ain't experiencing any monday blues no more. school is great! it wasn't as daunting as i thought. with new friends(despite me being grouchy on the first day of school and not talking much) and silly yet funny lecturers, time passes pretty quickly. 3 hour breaks can really be spent on quality bonding. we did just that over the five 3 hr breaks we had over the past 2 weeks. yeah, time wasting i know but at least we get to hang around a little bit with our new classmates. shuttle buses are a saviour indeed.

our lecturers ain't as experienced compared to poly which worries me a little. so far, we only met 2 lecturers one of whom flew in from aussie. too young to make a lecturer i think. but he's pretty talented judging by the solo piece he did last week. the other's warm and friendly. he seemed wise, with his age but doesnt act like it. haha. imagine youself asking your lecturer, 'how do you do this?' and to that, he replies you 'i don't know either! i'm bad with dreamweaver, we're all learning together!' what the hell right? omg, i feel our class is doomed. unless, we get the guys who're supposed to be geniuses with IT to help us. hahaha. they come in real handy i must say. with lecturers like that, we can only photobooth to waste a little time away. haha. so we happily photoboothed like half an hour away last friday. shall post the shots up soon.

well hope our class's gonna remain just like it is in the 2 years to come. cos you never know what will happen in the coming months even. now we gotta think what to do over the next 3 hour breaks. the home song stories? hmmm...anyways we're gonna cam whore tomorrow. it's gonna be fun and merry. wheee!

DAY 10

it's their anniversary after the stroke of midnight. aren't they sweet?

everyone danced and sang

it was drinks again after din.

din with the best wine sommelier in france. it was fun listening to his past experiences with celebs- the fugly and beautiful.

dessert: chocolat cake of cos!

main: some fish. can't remember what. the potatoes were delicious too.

they actually wanted me to finish the bottle just cos i'm of the same age.

starters: scallops! yum yum.

hannibal 3?

we popped by erik's place for some drinks before heading for din.

where's wally? i mean effie.


romeo, romeo, where are thou?

damn! it was too cold to swim even with the pool's heater on!


this is the closest you can get to a watering hole

now that's a 7 seater.

with cute puppies to go with it.

even the pharmacie's with interesting window displays in la chatre

peacock at the entrance

my mind's exactly like this having not attended school for soooo long. rusty.

the old workshop still intact

the moat surrounding the castle

these boots are made for walking..


ain't that stool with a heart cute? wished i could bring it home!

we were in the chapel and he started saying 'ethel! come! sit here! why you eat beef?' which triggered a sea of laughter after

who knows what lies beneath...

don't you shudder to revisit an old castle with it's remains and furnishings intact?

narrow spiral staircase again

danger lurks everywhere

a portrait

picturesque

entrance to Sarzay

it was chilly outside but it was freezing inside! strange...

imagine splashing hot oil onto unknowing enemies.




ambush

traditional way of building roofs with these wooden frames. hardy, they say.

castle with pretty houses lifted from children's storybooks.

baby shrubs growing at the fire place?

people of medieval times seem to cramp in really small beds or are they just petite?

babies in the cradle. of cos you see em no more. but it's kinda creepy isn't it?

in Sarzay Castle



my poor dad couldn't have beef and had this instead.

haven't had steak for a long long time...didn't really some parts with the rubbery texture

luncheon at an authentic french restaurant.


calmness and serenity

horsy horsy! or rather little boy on pony. ain't this cute?

the playful kitty

solitude
