the day from hell....

well...yesterday was...in a word...terrible...by far my lowest day since coming...i should have known it would be terrible based on how it began...my alarm didn't go off and i woke up 15 minutes before my first class...but the real reason it was hellish my last class of the day...they are so frustrating and out of control...they would not shut-up and towards the end two boys actually got up and walked out of the class...i absolutely lost it and started ranting..."i didn't spend 10 hours on a plane to come all the way to france to be a babysitter..." yeah...of course none of them understood a word...well, one girl did...it was actually really cute...her face lit up and she said "j'ai compris"..."hey, i understood that"...she was kind enough to translate for the rest of the class...i felt really bad because it's only a few students that cause problems...the rest are extremely sweet and try really hard...it's not fair that they can't learn because of a few rude kids...

anyways...i came home, with a really bad headache, ready to go on a shooting rampage...and decided to call a friend back home and vent...but, of course, he was busy...so i did the one thing i do when i feel like things are totally out of control...i clean...holy crap, my apartment is spotless...i even rearranged all my furniture...i guess putting things in physical order helps me feel like i'm in control...i know it's futile, but my apartment looks great...

and to top off a terrible day, my boy, mathieu, got kicked off of star academy...now that is a real tragedy...

today i'm feeling much better...i'm heading to lille in a bit and i think miriam and i are going to our first football (that's soccer for you guys back home) game...allez dogues!!!
