This is is such a slack week, I have totally no classes at all, but couldn't do any travelling coz train tickets are extremely expensive the nearer it is to travel date. But Michaela and I went to the SNCF today and got tickets to Bordeaux for next week! Haha, things are starting to heat up around here, but we spent like 70 euros each for the tix...bleahz

Aniwae, we went to Central Paris again, since there was nothing to do. We did lotsa of shopping, at Chatelet de Halles, and there were pretty cheap buys at this French Store "Berksha". I bot this red hooded pullover for only 3.99 euros, that's pretty cheap huh...In france, the people are really lazy, shops are not opened at all on Sundays, and we wasted time travelling to Chatelet for nth just last Sunday!
We also walked to the famed Notre Dame Cathedral, it's really grand and beautiful..All throughout the visit, i was wondering why i don't see the hunchback Notre Dame, and it turned out to be that it was just a story, Notre Dame just referred to this guy who stayed at the Cathedral, that's why they named it after him...

We did quite a bit of aimless walking, and came upon quite a number of beautiful sights...I suppose you really discover more that u bargained for when there's nth particular in mind...

Oh ya, something funny happened at the train station: Michaela couldn't get thru the ticket gates at the station cuz her ticket wasn't walking. In the end, i got in first and she refused to jump over the gates like people who don't pay do cuz she was too shy...The first time she tried she couldn't get over and hit her knees, then she decided to try buying another ticket again, but she didn't know how to operate the machine cuz it's all french..In the end she tried jumping over another time and got over, but she hit her right knee again...Haha, and she looked so embarrassed man!

Picture time!
