I had my first Starbucks the other day…pretty good in comparison…its about twice as expensive though sooooo wont be making many trips there.

I am going through the freshman 15 again because I eat incessantly everyday – loaves of bread, butter cookies, chocolate biscuits, little almond-flavored sweets, ice cream – pretty much any junk food the kids are also eating at the time. And OMG these things called Speculoos – I CANNOT figure out what the equivalent is in English but the family has tried to tell me that it’s like a caramel cookie but they also have a jar of it that looks like peanut butter…so I don’t know exactly what is it but I am IN LOVE with it!! Dare I say that I like it more than Nutella…definitely bringing back multiple jars/cases/packages of this edible ecstasy.

I experience vertigo every time I go to the bathroom – there are no windows and barely enough room to shut the door

My window would have been perfect for Hitchcock – i have to admit that I love getting a glimpse of the neighbor’s lives…especially the cute guy right across the way that  I will someday say hi to from my room…

Je deteste les pepins! So apparently you cant find seedless grapes around here…I have come to loathe eating grapes for this reason – The seeds ruin the whole experience and it becomes very cumbersome to spit out 4 tiny kernels per grape – I got duped the other day when the mom bought what was said to be seedless grapes; however, they clearly had seeds as I discovered….I will be on the endless search for grapes sans les pepins!

I have never seen anyone iron underwear before…WOW…This is like double shock for me because I NEVER iron anything :/
