Paris trip

hey ppl... well i had a vacation to paris sponsored by mummy n step dad!!! luv them soo much for it... they decided to surprise me with this trip n i really appreciate it bt it meant i had to miss the goodwill games!!!! at firsrt i was dissapointed bt wat the heck its a once in a life time opportunity(my church won anyway in netball)... sooo packed on the day that i was leaving n forgot to bring the bloody IPOD!!!! bt tried to watch movies on the flight.the first half of the flight was fine until i had gastric(i think it was gastric), reached dubai which was beautiful n had a 3 hr stop over there bt wasnt up to doing anything coz tummy ached really bad so mummy, U.Ian n I juz sat at a coffee shop. Ordered n shared a Hot Choc with mum which didnt taste that good bt U.Ian told mummy to get me brandy frm the bar for my tummy. At first i was reluctant to drink it bt afta a forced myself to, my tummy ache went away! YAY!! bt that was only for a while. on the plane it was worse so tried to rest bt it didnt help n finally i puked! n puked n puked!! great way to start the vacation isnt it???
well, reached paris n waited for our luguage(however u spell it) n guess wat mums students luguage got sent to london instead!! oh yeah, went there under student exchange programme with mums school.. soo she started tearing a bit coz she obviously had no clothes n her medication was all inside her bag... then we met all the french students(most of them were germans) n made our way to school. the school there was nice, they had vending machines, coffee machines, etc... had an opening ceremony n wished Kar Mern happy birthday n ate... then mummy n I were sen to the home where we were supposed to stay at the first week.
arrived at the home n found it nice. the lady whose name was Haika had 3 children, 2 handsome n cute sons n a beautiful daughter n they were VERY friendly. went up to the room which mummy n I shared. mum got ready to go for dinner n i had a bath n got ready for bed.. mum went out sumwhere n had Crapes(pronounced like craps) for dinner which surprisingly looked like Tosai, the only thing diff was that they added choc n other things in it n it was also done by indians. i on the other hand had vege soup for dinner n went straight to bed.
next morning, i woke up feeling a lot better!!! yay!! well went to school(i thought i was done with it) n had assembly where all of us had to introduce ourselves in front of every1... then maisara n i stayed back in school n made our way for art class while the rest ventured out into paris... we basically juz sat around n lepak-ed in the school til it was time to meet up with the others.. mey them at the train station n made our way to varsaillie to see King Louie V's castle.. the art in there was awesome. the place was big n there was a huge garden too. then it was back home n sleep.. basically we visited picasso museum, the famous Lourve museum, Eiffel Tower, Sacre Cer(Sacred Heart Church), Notre Dame Cathedral, boat ride around paris, Bakery's n i think thats it... ate A LOT of bread!!! made new frenz such as Farah Dinie, Maisara, John Lee, John Yee, Kar Mern, Adam, Zhi Yang, Kallen n Wern Han who r all students frm mums skul n all aged btween 13-16.. Heval, Beyond(dont know now to spell his name), Dan, Josefine, Steffi, Stefan, Caroline, Muriel n Charlotte who are the students of the Deustch School in Paris.. had a lot of laughs with them n enjoy bowling with them.. also bonded with most some such as Farah, Kar Mern, Kallen n John Lee.. all these ppl can be found on my facebook...
At last, the day where we had to leave(first we left the host families n the school to stay in a hotel for the last few days then we left paris) the first part of leaving was very tearful n emotional coz we were all so close then came the time to leave paris.. i had to say goodbye to mummy n students coz they were of course going back to kl bt i was on my way for part 2 of my vacation which was London... back to the goodbye.. we checked them in n the were abt to leave so i had to say my goodbye's bt not b4 more laughs by Awesome guy 1 n 2(john lee n john yee) with the poor lil cat.. they all huged me except John lee n yee.. they gave me a handshake.. well was sad that they were going bt promised to go to mums school for their Battle of the Bands where John Lee n Yee will be performing.. they are awesome.. well they went n U.Ian n I juz waited for our flight which was 3 hrs later.. eventually the time passed n I arrived in London..
