hey princesses, how is everyone anyway?

here is a big massive update of an essay,trust me things arent as exciting as they should be, well sort of but not really.trust me im not going out that much at all! people here actually study and take things seriously, its just i write to you about crazy stuff all the time because its where i get up to the most mischief and itseems like the most interesting stuff, you really want and e-mail where i say;

got up at 6;45 this morning so i could make it to my 8am class, its freaking cold and dark at that time, although for once the water in the shower was fairly hot, although you have to keep pushing the button every 15seconds or so, thats a little irritating, then i played with my computer a bit and put some different songs on my camera/mp3 player, got dressed and walked down to catch the 7h37bus, which was late because of teh heavy traffic at that time; its still very dark at that time of the morning, i think the sky has been solid grey for at least a week now, and pretty much constantly drizzling with rain, just enough to be annoying; i cant even be bothered getting my umbrella out of my bag;so about 150students all cram on this bus and because im wearing manylayers (2tshirts,fleece sweater and a ski jacket) it gets pretty hot on there, i dont know why but i feel a little sick in the stomach when i get hot here, its strange. traffic was so bad i got off about half wayand walked, i was about 8minutes late for class, but thats ok, i thinkin future i will take the earlier bus, but that means getting uppretty freaking early, then i was in that class for about 2hours doing stuff that was pretty good for my level i think, like its all stuff i know but im consolidating it, i think thats teh best thing for me right now, to master what i know before i move on to harder stuff, and then i did a class this afternoon called "oral speech in context, cultural conversation competence". but in fact we basically sat down in pairs, asked each other questions then did a little presentation thing about each other, mine was the best because i bagged the crap out of people who smoke so everyone got all fired up, but i stood my ground, there was one chick who kept repeatedly asking me what i would do if i had a girlfriend who smoked, even though she was a bit of a hottie; i told her i would tell her to get stuffed, hehe

the food here is interesting, i dont have much of a choice, its between various vegetables or chips, and a choice of fish, dinde(which means turkey but im pretty sure its chicken) or beef, so im definately trying different things, yesterday i think i had some sort of poultry wraped in fish, that was strange, didnt really like it but im so hungry by that stage that i just shouvel it down.

so yeah, you want more posts like that? because its what i have been doing mainly, personally i just find it more interesting to tell you things like how on monday night i went round to luke(irish guy)'s building (next to mine) where his floor was having a 3rd floor party, got really drunk and spoke to people in french, then went to java for erasmus(exchange students) night, where we get priority entry and cheap drinks, and you can guess teh rest from there, typical james stuff.

yesterday i got all excited because i thought the internet was working in my room, but turns out that now i can START the beauraucratic process, filling out various papers and signing various contracts so they can be mailed off to some office to authorise my account or something, basically another bout of extremely slow, tedious and seemingly unnessescary french beauraucracy. so im expecting, realisticly... 8-10 days. several people have been writing to me saying that people dont fire up as much without me, i guess its true, am i some sort of natural leader or something? you tell me. i was drinking a fair fookload of tequilla

stay in touch kids, hope you are appreciating the weather for those of you in Nice and even moreso for those of you in perth. brrr
