Sean Penn

Happenings of last night....

I ended up going out to a movie with my host mom and her friend. I have found my crowd. I spoke better French with them than I had all that day. We went to see a Sean Penn movie called "This Must be the Place" which was debuted at the Cannes Film Festival. It was a cross between Edward Scissorhands and Into The Wild somehow.

Now, before the film, we sat down to dinner and I had to ask the question, were we taking the bus or driving? Driving it was. Great. Following le diner I rushed upstairs to get my oh-so-favorite pair of nude pumps. I had a specific outfit in mind and wasn't going to waste a perfectly good opportunity to look put together. When I came downstairs, the friend (whose name escapes me) mentioned that we weren't going for a walk on the Champs-Elysee. She commented that I looked like one of those "young, what are they? Celebr - movie stars?".
Afterwards, we all went out for drinks (as if my mom's friend doesn't drive crazy enough). It was nice to sit and relax in the centre ville late at night - so beautiful. Following our stint at the cafe, the ladies decided to take me up to a lookout that has a beautiful view of the entire city. I finally managed to get home at around 1:30am and got up at 6am for my final day of class. One more day.
