Oh My Goodness!

I CANNOT BELIEVE IT! There's inly 10 days left! So happy, yet so sad!
This last week we had a bunch more tests, non of which I did very well on ...
Then saturday we drove to Versailles for a family reunion, which was such a great idea, and it was also celebrating the 140th birthday of Amarande's great, great grandmother who passed away 48 years ago. Me, Valentine, Amarande and Nadine then went to the chateau of Versaille and did the tour of the castle. It was SO amazing! The chateau of Versailles is the most visited castle in France and I can see why. The paintings and architecture was just phenomenal! We also walked down to 'Le Grand Canal' which was beautiful, but unfortunately it then started pouring rain so we didn't get to see the rest of the gardens.
Today was my last monday of school so I said goodbye to my Arts P. teacher (I'll put the picture at the bottom) and then we had our french test on the book we've been reading: Claude Gueux by Victor Hugo. It was only 50 pages, but it was very difficult to read, and I was constantly opening and reopening the dictionary. Luckily I feel pretty good about the test :)
The rest of the week is all saying goodbye to my teachers and friends, and friday is my last day of school. Then the coming weekend and my last few days are all visiting castles (YAY!) and packing for my long trip back.

Can't believe I'm going to be home in less than 2 weeks!!!

Hey, sorry it's been so long.... again! Time seems to be moving sooo fast, I can't believe there's only 3 weeks left?!?! I can't wait to see all my family and friends, but I don't want to leave this place :(
Anyways, last week was the Carnaval de Chaille, we all got into costume and had a little parade through the streets accompanied by some mini floats made by the primary school kids. There was confetti and silly string EVERYWHERE (i feel kind of bad for the cars and windows on the streets that we went down, the kids covered them!) We then went home and had a quick gouter, changed and went to the soirée :D We ate the best food (dessert came at 12:30, haha) and danced until 3:00am! I learned the 'Madelaine', the 'corde a sauter' and the french 'Macarina'. We had so much fun!
On Sunday (after sleeping in, and having a brunch, I made pancakes for the family) we went to the Max Vauché chocolate factory and shop! It is THE BEST CHOCOLATE IN THE WORLD (unfortunately it's also the most expensive in the world) and we took the tour and ate cocoa beans and chocolate mousse. It was fantastic!
At school this week we had a ton of tests(a math test 9/20, an SVT test, a french test, a music test, a history test, a Spanish test and last but not least, a technology test)! We had to present our finished Arts P. projects, and ours was pretty good i must say! haha. And allong with all that we also got our report card, though mine is rather plain, I only got 3 marks; a 14,7 in music, a 15.5 in math and a 16 in physics, and in french the teacher wrote "Eleve agreable et serieuse. Son integration dans la classe semble completement reussie" which I think is good, so I'm pretty happy with that :)
So Easter's coming up on Sunday, pretty exited to see the french traditions, and for 'les cloches de paque' (the easter bells) which delivers all the chocolate, because the story goes that the bells disapear for the 3 days before easter to go get all the chocolate and then easter morning deliver it all and return to their duties.
So I hope that everything's going great, and I'll talk to you all (all 4 or however many there are of you) soon :)
