Hey!
So, Here I am, back at school. Sat in Math for two hours and Italian for two hours. Who thought about making classes so long here? Especially when I dont fully understand.
Ksenia's birthday was so tiring! I started before 8 a.m. and decorated the house, cleaned, I cant even remember all the things I did but it lasted just until 1 p.m.! Then Marielle, P.A. and Ksenia came home. Then after that people just showed up randomly at the house with presents. It wasn't like a birthday I have ever seen. But now she is a "Big Girl" with 5 years so I I tell her she can be nice now. haha.
I spend new years somewhat bored with people eatting horse around me. At midnight all what we did was people go around kissing on the cheeks saying happy new year. Where was the ball drop, the fire works, the screaming Happy New Year?? Most of all where was my sundae? Then the party started to get better and people were talking to me. One guy is convinced I am gonna come and play in a band with him, but really, Im not. He gave me Joel's number and made me write him Happy New Year and told me he will answer. It sounds like this kid must talk about me to him. I went for some walk outside in the dark and was sliding on the ice. It would have been nice to have been a sleigh ride. Finally, at 7h00 after cleaning this cabin at the soccerfield we left. I proceeded by calling Laura's cell phone and saying Happy New Years but she didn't answer! Her phone was on silent! Then when I got home I called home and talked to Dave for all of 3 minutes and went to bed. I was exhausted.
So, I saw Deux En Un (Stuck on Me with Matt Damon) the night of the first with all the exchange students. Don't see it, it's not well! We saw that cause the last train was at 23h51 and the Lord of The Rings ends at 00h15. We ate pizza before hand and boire un verre. We had lots of fun all talking about our swiss experiences.
Friday Delphine was supposed to come over and play Dance Dance Revolution but her cell phone didnt have money on it so I couldnt send her a message saying to come! I also didnt know her house number. She finally calle dme around 5 o clock and asked if I wanted to spend the night at her house. P.A. took me to Cottens and I there I went. We went to a cafe and discussed her boyfriend problems and just stuff then we went back to her house and watched Castaway (in English) and every time he talked I expected French to come out. I didn't cry when he lost Wilson either! We ordered a hawaiian pizza and it was sooo good and she bought Cranberry juice. Then we watched some WWF and went to sleep. She lives in an apartment downtown. THe morning her bf didnt call (he lives in New Zealand) and she wants to dump him but she still likes him. Its a long story.
I had to take the train and I went to Romont to meet Marielle at work and then we went to Massonens for lunch with all the family and some friends. It was pretty good. We are going to the friends house next week for the same thing. We ate the hunt. I am in love with the hunt, it is sooo good. I played with Maxime-the 2 yearold cousin-most of the time, to him my name is Kiss. (that is with more of an e sound) He's so cute.
That night I saw the Lord of the Rings with Magaly's friend. It was a really good film! I figured he payed over 53 francs (over 40 dollars) that night. He writes me lots of text messages too and wants to see Finding Nemo. We'll see.
Well I gotta go take my antibiotic and search for the one and only drinking fountain in this school. then I wanna go try on some jeans cause mine are all wearing out or I dont fit in them. I am down to 127 pounds! I never thought I would be so happy to weight that much! haha. However, it's alot better than a month ago at 133! Still far off from 117. Just need more DDR! Marielle says that I dont eat enough, I say I just ate too much before! I'm never really hungry!
Just one week of school and then I am at the YFU Ski/Snow Camp in Merinigen! So I need a snowboard before than! Hope I can borrow one that works from Mimi or I will have to rent one for a week and I dont care to pay that much!
Ciao,
Kris

Hey! Bonne Ann�e! This is my first entry from 2004!
I got up before 8 yesterday to meet the mail woman to send my package. She took it and later brought it back saying I cant send it cause the chocolate! So either I lie and send it saying there isnt food inside or I take out the chocolate. Only risk is that they open the package and take the food. She will ask her boss again and the next day the post office is open is Saturday so I'll send it then. Then, I decorated the house for Ksenia's birthday and wrapped presents allllll morning. It was tiring! Lots of people came over all throughout the day to say happy birthday. She was so excited. She is now a big girl at 5 years old. Her parents thought it was cool that she got a package from the U.S. that they are keeping the labels! lol. It was sad that I had to leave before the dinner party but I think I would have been bored as the only teenager there.
I got ready to go last night and curled my hair and all that stuff and had a new shirt and when I came downstairs all the relatives were there and said how pretty I was and I was embarassed. lol. So then Yves came and they were all like don't stay in the car too long, we'll look at your neck tomorrow. And I said that wasnt funny and I am getting in that car and out as fast as I can! I never asked him to pick me up, Magaly did! The party was in the soccer cabin in Corpataux. We ate fondue chinoise and they had horse meat! nooo! Overall, I had a good safe new years but I prefer my parties at home with Brenda, Gennie and Emma. I called the house when I got home at 7h30 (alittle past midnight for you back in MN) and talked to Dave. Sounds like it wasnt that exciting there either.
Today I am gonna see the lord of the rings with all the exchange students.
Ciao,
Kris
