Weekend!

Right now, I'm at Victor Hugo park at the moment so I can get internet. I don't have internet at my dorm at the moment because I don't have my student card from INPG. It's only like a 10 minute tram ride to Victor Hugo. Everything is practically closed on Sunday here, supermarkets, French restaurants, clothing stores, pharmacies... except McDonalds and bars.

I had such an eventful weekend. Friday night, there were 6 of us who wanted to cook at the hostel. So, we all bought some spaghetti, sauce, cheese, bread, and ham. Our cooking wasn't bad. The only bad thing was that I had to share plates and forks, because there were only 2 plates and 2 forks. It was interesting. Then, we decided to drink at the bar. YES, THERE IS A BAR IN THE HOSTEL. It made me happy. :)

Saturday, I moved into my dorm. Thank god, Céline came to the hostel and helped me move all my stuff to my dorm. After, I unpacked a bit and went to the supermarket. I'm happy it's only like a 5 minute walk. So, I bought a pillow, sheets, soap, cleaning solution, and some food. It ended up being about 75 euros. God damn, everything in France is just god damn expensive. Also, I think because there are a couple of dorms nearby, they can get away with a huge increase in prices. I went to another supermarket just 10 minutes down the road and it was so much cheaper. Later that day, all the international students met up and we climbed up a mountain to see the Bastille. What a beautiful view of the city. It was damn hot. It took us about 2 hours to walk up there. I almost died and killed the turk, because we decided to take a shortcut, and let's say that the shortcut was not very safe. Thank god, I didn't fall backwards, because that probably would have not been pretty. I do have some sick scars from it. Haha. At the top of the Bastille, we were all sweaty and disgusting, but the view was just beautiful. I will put up some pictures on facebook.

Later that night, we all went out to the bar, after taking showers. We had the previous Brazlians, Spanish, Germans, Russian, Italians, Swedish, but we added another Swede, German, 2 Brazilians, and a Polish person to the group last night. I tried a beer, Welscotch, and am in love with it. For a pint, it was like, 6 euros. Fucking outrageous! But I had 2 of them. DELICIOUS! I might have drank way too much last night, but I think it's because I didn't really get to eat dinner that night. Haha.

Anyway, I think the international students are going to another bar tonight. This time, I won't drink that much. :)
