On the homestead!

As you all may know, I leave tomorrow morning around 2:30am from my house in france to return back home. I'm all packed and ready to go. It legit took me forever to pack because I don't have my mom's sweet packing skills. Hopefully my suitcase isn't over weight, I have to weigh it tonight. It shouldn't though. But anyways I thought I would give one last blog update before I head off back home! I guess this is it, my days in France are over.... Oh well! Back to Canada! :)

Last few days!

Since it's my last few days, I thought I would type about what I have done. Yesterday, I went for a 20km walk and if you don't believe I got a little certificate thing, I'll show you when I get home. Which is super soon! I come home wednesday at 10:30pm. I'm kinda super excited. It'll be so good to be home finally. These last few days have been taking FOREVER! Like legit, they have been. I've started packing... Yeah not going so well, I need my mama here to help me! Hopefully its not over weight! I pray to god it's not. Otherwise I don't know what I am going to do! It shouldn't be over weight. But anyways I am going shopping today. :) I know, that's a super way to spend my last few days here!

 I guess there is nothing else really to say, other than see you guys in a few!!!

yes I do realize there is a hole, its for my shoes that  are getting washed. haha

Only a few more days left!

    So Rome was pretty good. I saw it during the day, at night and under rain, the only thing that was missing was the snow. But thankfully there was none! I haven't seen snow since I left, but I have seen plenty of rain! I'll put pictures up on facebook soon ish. :) I took like 300 pictures. I bet I made you proud mama. Crazy crazy crazy I come home in like 5 days. It seems like forever to me! It'll be so good to be home again! 3 months was long enough for me. Haha Hopefully my suitcase won't be too heavy otherwise not good. I already know what clothes I am going to leave behind because I don't need them anymore and yes mom I am throwing away my black jeans with the holes at the knees finally. I told you they wouldn't come home with me. But anyways! Nothing too new has gone on lately. Sunday I am going for a 20km walk in the country here, yeah I know stupid things I get myself into. I think this is like the third thing I have gotten myself into not really wanting to do it. Oh well, that's life I guess!

    I am not really looking forward to the plane ride over here because I have to leave my house at 2:30am to be at the airport for 4:30am. This is why I don't like living far away from Nantes (that's where the airport is and I live in a town close to Laval). Anyways, I don't think I am going to sleep but I'm gonna try. I'll probably pass out as soon as I get home.  But back to my life here, its kinda boring, I don't go out, don't do much, but that's all going to change in 5 days. :D hahaha As you can tell I am super happy to be coming home to my fam jam and my friends. These 3 months have been long but they passed by so quickly. I guess that's all for now. I'll probably post another one just before I leave.

Update!

So I am done school now. :) Sweet I know right? This is going to be a very short post most likely because 1. my laptop is dieing and 2. I am leaving for Italy soon! Super exciting I know! First time going so super pumped!!! We have to leave at 11:30pm to drive to Paris and our plane takes off at 6:00am. Why are we taking the earliest plane possible?? I have no idea. I don't ask questions. I will for sure take lots and lots of pictures! AAAAHHH!! This is so exciting!! I wish you guys were here to come with me! But you're in Canada. :( I come home in 12 days! That's also rather exciting. So I had Mcdonalds for like the first time here and guess what I did!?!? I super sized it! bahahaha I'm such a fatty. Oh well I have to go now! Bye!


Mackenzie! :D

Owie!!

I swear I am starting to post more and more pointless thing on here. But anyways back to my point. So Sunday I ran like 6km ish. I ran most of it than my hip started hurting so I had to walk, I also did some fitness thing that's in the woods near my house. I know that sounds weird but they have a legit like course thing in there. I went with  my neighbors and my host family. Then I learned how to play petanque later that day. I would explain it to you but I don't know how to. Yeah so my legs are now killing me! To make things better I had 2 hours of gym today! Yeah that was fun playing volleyball and handball.

I just googled petanque for you to save you the trouble and it is a form of boules where the goal is, while standing inside a starting circle with both feet on the ground, to throw hollow metal balls as close as possible to a small wooden ball called a cochonnet (literally "piglet") or jack. Yeah that's what it said. So I hope that helps! Also I'll attach a little picture on to here too. :)

Yay, more of my somewhat exciting life!

Soooooooooooooooooooo...................... Today, I went to the laval virtual. It's basically a huge nerd fest, but it was pretty neat. They had people from Japan, Canada ( yeah I know pretty sweet, the spoke english to me!), and other places I'm guessing. :p I also went shopping today. I only spent 50Euros which is good! I got a cardigan, a skirt ( I know weird of me to buy a skirt), a necklace and teal nail polish. Pretty much all I have done today and pretty much since the last time I posted. I can't believe I only have two more weeks of school, then holidays, then home! Its going to be so weird coming home. It'll be all english, all the time. Weird... haha Speaking of english, I said the stupidest thing the other day, instead of saying I'm shocked!, I said I'm shocking! Because that how everybody says it here. I felt like a huuuuuuugggeeeeeeee tool, when I realized what just came out of my mouth.  Anyways time for supper!

Mackenzie :)

PS. I've totally been walking around in sandals the past few days.. Bet your kinda jealous. haha :) 

So guess what I get to do?!?!!?!?

Ask you can tell with the title, I'm super excited about something! You are clearly asking what are you so excited about?? I really feel I should just drag this on and just ramble like I am doing now, but I am too nice to do that so I'll tell you. I get to go teach at an elementary school next week on friday. I get to go to 4 different classes. I'm not totally sure what I am going to do, but I'll find out this thursday because I have a meeting thing at my house with one of the teachers that is friends with Coraline's parents. I'm actually so excited to do this, and I don't know why. I just thought I'd share that with you guys. I'm actually really looking forward to this. It's going to be a good. Also I am going into a class where they are 6  years old I believe. Oh! Also This weekend I went to le futuroscope with my host family and the neighbors. It was really fun. It like an amusement park but its all different types of like simulation things. It was interesting. But I guess that's all that's new with me.

PS I just realized that it is exactly one month today until I leave. Also I had to take an english test today. It was super easy! Other than I forgot what fried was in french and its frits. Yeah stupid me, I don't even know how I forgot that. Haha
