Well on the afternoon of the 18th I went for a drive and brought a new book to read, but its in English so that is a plus for me :)
19th :)
I didnt have a sleep in, but I had a good family breakfast, then skyped family. After that, we had a family lunch and I got ready and went to Marseille with my host Mum, Marriane and my host brother. We walked around the port and went shopping, and I brought a new pair of shoes. (which are very beautiful). To my surprise, we had carbonara for tea which topped off my night :)
20th :)
My host Dad's Mum came over and we had drinks (Ice tea <3) and they all drank champagne. We had a nice lunch, chatted for a while then just relaxed. Then I had a late night after watching 2 movies.
(Started to sort Eurotour on this day)
21st :)
I rode to my host dad's garage with my host brother, and we left the bikes there. (I had already made the chain come off twice, my bad) and we walked up to like the top of my town. It took pretty long, and it was very steep, and it was hot, but cold. I didnt like it because I prefer walking on flat surfaces. But we got to the top, took a few photos and then walked down again which was just as hard because you had to stop yourself from falling. Then we went and had a drink, which was good and refreshing, but then we walked to my host dad's garage again and my host brother (who is a big fan of bikes) took me on his cross country route on a bike which has scarred me for life. I will never ride a bike again !! (well you will be very surprised if I do!!) I came home bruised, sore, sweaty, wet feet, mud everywhere, even in my hair, and the SOREST BUM EVER!! So I was very tired but I stayed awake. Then later that night, my host dad, 2 host brothers and a friend went to the movies which was in 3d, it was pretty good but I didnt understand it really much at all. I was gad to get home and sleep.
22nd. :)
I slept in, then went to meet some friends at the stade (in Forcalquier) and came back sick afterwards. I slept all afternoon and then had a late night with my host dad and host brother. Nothing much happened at all.
23rd :)
I slept in, and apparently slept talked :( I was so embarassed, and Marriane and my host brother were laughing !! :(
Then I showered and walked to my host dad's garage and did some work for him there, then walked home and came home to a letter :):) which made me very happy. And also got me thinking about sending some. Now all my friends want one but I dont know what to say!! I also helped my host brother with English homework.
24th.
I started to write some letters, and watched a movie as well as writing my blog and taking some photos.
Nothing much has happened yet because of holidays but soon I am going shopping and hopefully to see a girl who is going to Japan and we are going to go ice skating and shopping and stuff.
Also soon I am going snowboarding with my family which I am looking forward to.
BIZZZZ <3 (kisss) xo

12th feb- 18th feb :D
12th feb.
I skyped Mum, cleaned up, then we went to Aix en Provence shopping all day. I brought some new jeans :D and had these things that are really delicious haha, i think they are called churros :)
Then my host parents went out so at home was my 3 host brothers, and 2 friends. It was good :) we skyped people, and went on chat roullete, (they taught me what it was) but i didnt understand because it was in French, and then were singing the O.M chant to everyone. Then we played a French card game which was cool, and then we played UNO and pictionary.
13th feb.
I slept in a bit, skyped family and then did nothing really. Then later I went to watch my host brother play badminton, and we walked and I saw my host dad's garage again. I had an awesome lunch and dessert. We had tartaflette and something chocolate for dessert. Then I have been sick so I slept. But got no sleep all night.

7th feb - 11th feb.
On the 7th.
I got up and was ready before we had to leave (wooo!) and caught the bus to school as usual.
Once I got to school I was told we had 1 hour of no classes so we went to the snack bar as usual. After some classes and lunch, we went and played fooseball and had a snack. Then we had a class (which I'm not sure what it was) where everyone had a test but I just sat there the whole lesson, since I had no idea what it was about. Although the teacher understood and said it was okay. Caught the bus home like normal, and had a fairly quiet evening at home.
On the 8th.
Started school at 8. Had English first, and had a test which was a breeze for me. Then I had French, where as usual, I understood hardly anything. And to make it harder to write notes, the teachers handwriting was very hard to understand for me. Then I had Humanities, and Maths, which I got my test back and scored 5.5/10 from guessing and what I had picked up from a few lessons. For lunch, I think I ate a bite of a snail nugget, and it made me feel sick. But afterwards I had chicken which was good. Then had my first sport lesson, playing Volleyball. And then I waited at the bus stop with my host brother to catch the bus home. Did nothing really after school!
On the 9th.
I had school from 9-12 (YAAAY) and skyped Mum at 1. Then my second host mother picked me up at 2 and showed me their house. Then we had pancakes, and went to the movies to see Les Chemins de la Liberte which was in english so it was good, although it went for 2 hours and a bit. Then I came home at 6:45, showered and left for a rotary meeting at 7:30which was a dinner. I ate a little bit and felt sick, and returned home at 10:05 with a stomach ache. So I went to bed.
On the 10th.
I stayed home, because I was sick. I went out for lunch with my host dad and his friend and came home the same. But I did watch Toy Story in French. And the Fantastic 4 in English. :)
On the 11th.
I stayed home from school again, to recover fully. Although now I am catching a cold! I watched Night at the museum in English and Harry Potter in French... Difficult!
That's about all I can update you with until next time. Because I might do something interesting tonight.
Au revoir et bisous,
Brit

the 1st until the 6th of February :)
On the 1st.
I woke up at 6, to take the bus at 7, to begin school at 8. I only has school until 12 which was great. When I got home me and my host brother went for a drive on the scooter and when we got home my other host brother and I played on our iPod's for a while, competing, battling, seeing who was better at what, until then we had dinner and I had a fairly early night.
On the 2nd.
My day was fairly original! It consisted of school from 9-12, then when I got home I didn't do much. Then I had rotary that night, which was good to meet a few more Rotarians.
On the 3rd.
I went to my host dad's garage in the morning and got to see in there. Then I caught the bus to school by myself. (So proud!)
School was just like the usual, but in the afternoon we had an excursion to the L'Occitane. It was good, and there they make soaps, perfumes, really nice smelling things :) When we got home from there, me and a few of my friends went to a snack place, and we played fooseball, and I dominated! I also brought an Orangina there.... It was amazing! I had missed them :)
It was a long day so when I got home I had dinner, a shower and went to bed early.
On the 4th.
I wasn't expecting it, but I didn't have school until 1pm! But I had to catch the bus att 11:40am. So in the morning I skyped my family which was good, and just got prepared for school slowly.
I had a fair few subjexts during the day and it seemed to linger on longer than the previous week but it wasn't too bad. We also had school class photos this day :)
Then I caught the bus home with my host brother and his friend, and we stayed at a friend's house with another girl. We had amazing pizza for tea, and ate heaps of m&m's and malteasers. :) And we watched a French comedian as well as some simpsons in French!!
On the 5th.
When we woke up the toilet had leaked (HAHAHAHA) so we had to clean that up and try to stop it (which the boys did while us girls layed in bed) then we came home. I had an amazing croissant!!
Then we prepared to go to the Football (soccer) in Marseille!! Which was absolutely amazing/awesome/sweet/great!! The crowd and supporters where wild it was awesome!! It was crazy :) Then OM (Olypique de Marseille) won, so there was fireworks :) It was awesome to go there, though it was cold and when I had to go to the toilet I wandered in there on top of the world but then I realised I had to use a squatter which didn't hugely tickle my fancy but I did it anyway. Pretty proud :)
On the 6th.
I thought I would sleep in fairly long because of a big night but I had a bad dream :( And I only slept until 7 and then couldn't go back to sleep :( But then skyped family at 9am, for a fairly long time. It was good to catch up on more stuff. Then I have written some more in my diary and prepared for school. And it was great weather, we could wear t-shirts and long pants and be right.
Then in the afternoon my host Dad came in a took me for a drive in his rally car which was SOOOO AMAAAZZZZINNNGGG :) but I don't think my hands have ever gotten so sweaty! So well worth it though :)
Been craving a crepe for 3 days now!
School tomorrow! :)
Au revoir et gros gros gros bisous! xo Brit!
