Usually when you leave a class, store or friend is accustomed to say “Bonne Journ�e” meaning “Have a good day!”.Today is such a good day! I had class this morning then I went to the office to fill out some papers and talk to one of the program assistants about a contact family. So I will have a family I can talk and chat with when they are avaiable. C’est genial! Then I got a membership at a gym “Keep Cool” where an adorable  young french man helped me and my friend purchase gym memberships. Later I did some shopping where I got a jacket 50% off from a popular French store “Etam”. After that I discovered this organic market, or Bio as they say in French. There I asked a nice old lady if there was vegetarian food, and yes there was! Plenty of soy burgers, tofu hot dogs and chick’n nuggets. Of course it was pretty expensive but I was happy to find it. It is so difficult to find these products in France. There is no gluten-free or organic isle like in American grocery stores. Plus the weather is great today, sunny and in the high 50’s, so I’m going to go for a run in the park by the mini Arc de Triumph. Tonight I’ll probably grab some drinks with some friends. I might do some homework at some point, but so far my teacher’s have yet to collect it or even ask for all of it. So I’m thinking it’s more of a “do it if you feel the need to” type of thing.

Bonne Journ�e!
