Thursday night I ate pig blood for dinner. Though it wasnt just blood, it was a little bit of meat with a lot of blood wrapped in pig skin. Thankfully Claire cooked it, and didnt make us eat it raw! We ate it with apple compote which made it taste a lot better.

Friday not much happened at school. Théo came over for dinner, we had a cheese quiche, spinich in a white sauce, and poivron (a special French vegetable which I dont know the name of in English). Tonight I am going to go to the Fete de Lumières with Ingrid, and maybe Chloé, Justine, Alexys, and Antoine.

Tomorrow I am going to Part-Dieu with Laurie (its a big mall) to buy a scarf for winter and a bag for school, because we dont have lockers and have to carry everything around with us and my current bag is slowly falling apart:( Tomorrow night I am going to the Fete de Lumières again with Claire, Michel, and Laura to see the feux d'artifice (fireworks). They normally dont have fireworks for the Fete de Lumières, but this past year it rained on the 14 of July (sort of the equivilent of the US' 4 of July) when they normally set off firworks, so they couldnt set them off. So, they kept them for tomorrow night!:)
