Mélie gribouille

... yet I got to open my presents. Jon had already given me a lovely "Household planner" (basically a calendar with stickers saying like "Doctor", "Birthday", "Holiday", "Important Date" and forget-me-nots and a pen), and tonight I got a very nice frame as well. Now we just have to take a picture of the two of us and print it and it will be perfect.

I was surprised by Joan, Jon's mother. Last year already she had gotten me presents for Christmas and my birthday. But today she gave me even more presents than usual... which resulted into a funny scene as Jon was given one single present while she piled boxes on my knees XD Well, in fact, there were only three boxes, but to me it looked huge. I got a sort of nice thread to be attached to my glasses so that they won't fall down or get lost any more (I have to insist : I do not lose my glasses, they get lost by themselves). I got a purple jumper (and just the right purple, my favourite colour) and a set of body fragrance and washing stuff which is very nice and with a French name XD I really didn't expect to get all that... I know Joan likes me but here she is really spoiling me... Jon tells me she feels that I am the daughter she never had... and this honestly touch me. Great, I'm crying now XD

So that was Christmas Eve for me. But since I haven't posted for so long I guess I should give you a little update XD

( So here comes a little update about pretty much everything and anything )

And I think that's it. Mainly. Well I could say a few things about school and exams and lazy teachers, but I'm too happy to talk about annoying things right now.

Once again, Merry Christmas everyone !

- So on Tuesday I officially discovered (well, actually, not me, the doctor did) that I have a bronchitis - which would probably never have happened (the discovery, not the bronchitis) if Jon had not threatened me until I decided to skip classes and go see the doctor. That same doctor gave me an "arrêt de travail" to stop me from going to work until Monday. Which means I have the end of the week off and can enjoy spending it with my boyfriend. I swear I did not do it on purpose.

- NaNoWriMo is going to be difficult this year. I'm already around 7000 words behind. When I manage to write, I never fulfill my quotas. Too bad.

- Tomorrow, Christmas shopping, yeah

Il est donc J-6 avant le concours blanc, et je suis toujours vivante. Yeaaaah !

Des trucs en vrac :

- Ashes to Ashes, c'est BIEN. Ma grande surprise de l'année, je pense. C'est aussi bien que Life on Mars. Et tous les trucs dont j'avais très peur, et bien en fin de compte, j'adore. Donc si vous avez aimé Life On Mars, mais que le concept "on prend presque les mêmes et on recommence" vous laissait perplexe - ce qui était mon cas -, je vous assure que vous pouvez quand même essayer. Personnellement, j'ai été conquise en moins de dix minutes, alors que je partais vraiment sceptique au départ.

- plus que treize jours et je suis en Irlande, plus que treize jours et je suis en Irlande... et j'y resterai jusqu'au 27 décembre ^___^ Et après, nouvel an en Tourraine chez les grands-parents - et pas toute seule... -, ça va être bien aussi ^_^

- mon pseudo-NaNo s'est terminé à 1700 mots et quelques. Enfin, non, pas terminé, c'est juste le compte que j'ai atteint fin novembre. Mais bon, en fait, je n'ai pas vraiment participé sérieusement... l'année prochaine ^_^

- En parlant de l'année prochaine : j'ai jeté un coup d'oeil aux programmes de ma future fac et... j'ai vraiment hâte d'y être. En plus, j'ai découvert qu'il n'y a pas qu'Erasmus dans la vie. Il y a aussi la possibilité d'être une assistante française en étranger (Irlande, au hasard...). Et ça, ça me tente bien. Mais genre, VRAIMENT bien.

- En fait j'avais plein de trucs à dire mais évidemment je ne me souviens plus de rien. J'ai des mèmes à terminer, aussi. Oh, et les citations. Et la liste de Noël. ... un jour ?

Et à propos de Noël... ( My christmas tree... )

JOYEUX NOËL TOUT LE MOOOOOONDE !!!!!!!!!!
