Jetlag Attack

            We got to france!!!!! I am currently posting this at 5:00 AM France time, which might seem like I just woke up super early. The fact is, I slept from 5 to 8 PM, Then I woke up and never went back to back to sleep. But at least I am not as sick feeling as I was earlier. My and my mom get to go to emersion class together in less than a week! We finally get to learn french! Yay!!! And I we get to get a new chessboard so I get to play a lot more chess and have fun.

Our Cake!

ImageWe made a cake! Awesomely, all of our frosting was delicious even though we had never made it before! We got to make a chocolate frosting and an addicting (don’t worry no nicotine) vanilla one. Unfortunately, it makes me even more sad about the horrible freezers in france. And to add onto it, this cake almost melted and would have if John, the guy who we were giving the cake to, hadn’t done his food surgery. Overall, it was amazing!

My Graduation

Image                    Yay! I finally graduated from elementary school! It’s kinda weird thinking that I won’t step in the proximity of my school for at least another year, and that’s if I ever come back to visit in the first place. But I still think that it was cool when I got my certificate. Speaking of that, the picture above is me in line about to receive it! Yay again!

What Would You Do

If anyone thinks cats are for lamos, then you should see these skills. Anyways, the reason that I haven’t be post in anything is…. well I have to admit I just am being lazy again. Well, at least I am here now and I am writing this post. Here’s a question: What would you do with one million dollars and no limits? Answer below.

Hello Students of Hattemer

My Dad recently told me a few of the Hattemer students might come to the blog. So if you are there, then “Hi!” Some of the things I like to do are play with my rubik’s cube*, which I can solve in around  one minute and thirty seconds. Another thing I like to do in my extra time is play video games**, and last but not least, I like to bake with my mom.

JKEROEHFWEHRemember how I told you that there were certain somethings and someones i will miss during our trip? Well the toddler in the background is my one year and around seven month old nephew, who is also one of the someones. See what I mean? He is way to cute to leave behind. Anyways, I am actually starting to have this whole moving idea settle into my brain. France is gonna be my hometown, so I better speak in it. “Pourquoi ai-je fait ce une idée pour le blog la plupart des gens ne peuvent pas comprendre tout ça!”. Nevermind, that will make pretty much everyone confused throughout the completeness of chez-soi’s history and future. Well, peace to all and have a good day. That was weird. Bye.

I Am Thinking….

There are many things going around my head at the moment. One side of my head is talking to the other.

This is the dialogue.

“What’s up?”

“Nothing much.”

“What do you think about the move?”

“I hate it! Don’t you!”

“No, I’m happy about it.”

“Are you serious? This sucks!”

“Well, we will learn two languages.”

“Who cares? I don’t!”

“Oh yeah?”

“Yeah!”

“OH YEAH?”

“YEAH!”

And stuff like that. Yep, I’m stressed.

We Chose a School! Yay Yay Yay!

We recently have chosen my school in Paris. The schools that we visited were:

Hattemer, (pronounced “at-mare”)

And Eurecole:

Which are both good. We noticed at first that Eurecole was small but made up for it in nice and language. We took a test, which was extraordinarily easy, and left. Thinking Eurecole was the best school we could find, we went to Hattemer with partially closed minds. However, Hattemer was able to pry them open and shows how good the school really was. They toured us throughout the measurably bigger building and let us meet some of the nice kids from school. This school was more academic, and Eurecole was three quarters of the day language. This school was friendly, when Eurecole was as shy as much as me (not a good sign). In the end, we (Obviously because of my opinionated writing) chose Eurecole. Just kidding! Hattemer is our new main school. Thanks for reading- kiddo
