huit? ohh i can't keep track.

WED (10/08): Saw Jenny Lewis perform at La Maroquinerie. It was a pretty small venue so it was nice to see her up close, instead of from way back in section B at the Greek where I saw rilo kiley in june. After the show, we hung around (even though we weren't supposed to) and tagged along with these awful tennessee groupies who had latched on to one of the band members. We ran into Jonathan Rice and then just followed him up to the bar where the rest of the band/groupies/fans/random people were. We tried to blend in and ordered some drinks. Just as we were about to leave jenny lewis came in and all four of us (me, marie, silvy, wilson) got to meet her! I don't know.. i think it's pretty cool, getting to meet one of the singer's who has saved your ears. and weirder still, considering the amount of time i spend listening to her songs and rilo kiley songs and then actually being able to say hello. ahh, tres bizarre!

FRI - SUN: mes parents were out visiting me. they rented a pretty fancy car with a gps navigation which talked to us in french, and we drove around to chartres, fountainbleau, rambouillet. we stayed at some cutesy b&bs. it was nice to see them in person instead of just the pixelated versions of themselves on skype. haha, ohhh and the restaurant meals were great as well! but note to self: never order andouillette. (it's sausage made of intestines...SICK!!)

THURS (10/16): saw jazzanova at rex club. i don't know, but something about paris has made me start to like techno more. oh right, maybe because they play it everywhere! no but i really am liking it more than i thought i would. c'est bon!

TODAY (10/17): headed for Bois de Boulonge park in about dix minutes. it's supposed to be huge, and have ponds, and a bunch of us are going to have a picnic. yumm. tomorrow is giverny and bike riding, and sometime before next week i will cram for my midterms. AHHH!

(i'll probably edit this in a little bit, because i'm sort of in a rush to go catch the metro)

au revoir!
