Last night we had dinner with Simon's (kid spending his senior year over here) family and this other family with a daughter my age. She was actually in one grade higher. But she was ok. Name was Lena or something. Her family had been here since like 1995 or something, and Lena knew like 3 languages: English, French and German. Wow. We had home-made pizza, salad and sherbet. Basically us kids talked about school and whatnot while the parents talked about politics and other whatnot. It was fun I guess. I didn't talk much. I found out Lena and like all the other French kids watch(ed) High School Musical because everyone else does and they like to make fun of it. She also said they danced to the music. And she and her friends like Disney movies. Simon and her talked about slaughter movies, which did not sound like... non-slaughter. Bloody. *wrinkles nose in disgust. She reads like Gossip Girl books and such and used the word "fun" to describe lots of things. She likes Twilight. And we also talked about the school. I learned that the school I'm going to does not have proms (*pumps fist) or senior prank day. She didn't even know what that was. Wow. She said this school was like different. (See title quote) so I guess I'm not getting the "normal" French school experience. Eh whatever. And all of us (meaning parents and kids) got to the conclusion that the school here is sort of more... hard. The people are nice but lots of work and stuff. Yeah I agree.
A lot of people here wear Converse. Lena described that as "in the fashion". And they used to wear ripped jeans but they got too cold apparently. Ha. And according to her, there is like nothing to do in this town. Kids just go to Geneva. Eh whatever.
I was really tired when we went home. Then I went to sleep like instantly. The weekend should be pretty good; I don't have that much homework, but have to get some more supplies. It's raining. Bleak. I'll check out Fat Friday next week I suppose. And my mom wants me to go to the Ferney market today and take pictures. Supposedly the pictures would be good for my blog. I haven't done much pictures on my blog in awhile. So maybe expect some.
Here's your daily question: well, not daily.. more like, "whenever I feel like it" question to think about:
What would you guys think if a lawyer turned in his client because he knew the client guy was the bad guy and didn't want to support the bad side? Think about it, maybe comment if you want. But it would appear that no one wants to comment. But I can always hope. Just... just think.

Everyone wears Converse here too.
I guess I wouldn't object to getting a pair.
Update update!
Lost my iPod. and though I love my mother's hand-me-down of the Original iPod, it just doesn't do well with...well, maintaining battery so I can listen to music on my battery powered portable musical carrying device.
I have no idea. That's why I can't be a lawyer.
Oh ok. Hey thanks.
