This past week was somewhat similar to the one before it. In that I didn't do anything too eventful, just kind of living life. Which really isn't as much fun to blog about. But I suppose here I go!
Last weekend a friend from USC was in town and I got to spend a day exploring with her which was fun. We went to the usual spots like the Arc de Triomphe and walked down the champs-elysees which was cool. We then went into Angelina's for some of the famed hot chocolate and pastries. I clearly got over the trauma from last time. Anyways! We were sitting there and I was wearing a SC hoodie, because those are literally the only mid-layers I brought. Some guy then walked by and was like I like that logo or something as clever, and it turned out that he was a Marshall Alumni from the class of '83 or some such. Small World for sure.
Emily and I were going to go to the cinema museum to see the Tim Burton exhibit but the line was absolutely insane and we ended up dumping that idea and just walking around the park area by the museum. Its pretty cool to still be finding parts of Paris I don't know at all. The place we were in was the Bercy area and there is a big sports arena type thing there. There was also a graffiti-filled skate park which was mostly being used by BMX bikers or people on rollerblades. Who knew that was still a thing?I had another final on tuesday, meaning I have 1 final and 1 project still due, so to celebrate being done Supply Chain Management I went to Disneyland Paris with 7 friends. It was pretty fun and a little weird. Its so strange being in a place that is so similar to one at home, but so far away. Like you would find yourself in certain parts of the park and I would completely recognize it from Disneyland in LA last summer. It was kind of comforting. There weren't too many huge rollercoasters, but we rode all of them and space mountain twice. The second time we rode space mountain I was sitting in the first car of the coaster and when I got off at the end my face was filled with tears from the wind on the ride.
The picture to the right was from the Small World ride which I still can't believe I got talked into going on. The ride is annoying, the dolls are pretty creepy and that damn song just gets stuck in your head forever. Either way I did enjoy their representation of LA being next to both San Francisco and NYC.
