This morning there was a small orientation on campus for schedules and such (no classes on Friday!).
Afterwords, we took a fun walking tour of Angers, and at sandwiches at a beautiful park (but what park isn't beautiful in France??).
After two trips to the supermarché, Ashton and I cooked a brilliant dinner of breaded chicken, salad, and baked potatoes with local wine =]
Tonight a few of us went back out to le boîte and a few bars and let me tell you, it was a night to remember.
After taking shots and dancing we walked over to one of the same pubs from yesterday and rocked out to "Empire State of Mind." The French tolerated this. The very next song was "Don't Stop Believin'" and the French had simply had enough =] The song was immediately changed to an apparently popular dance song that the entire bar started joining in on. It was so much fun to join in the crowd and dance with them though, even sing a few words here and there.
After cooling off outside we were told to take our beers inside because of the police. So we made it to the back of the bar. As I'm standing behind this overweight lesbian that definitely looked like a man, and who had also peed her pants, another girl proceeds to throw a drink in her face. This lesbian was acting a fool, obviously. Of course, the salope dodges the drink and I see it coming toward my face as if it were in slow motion.
The drink hit me with my eyes open and holy shit it burned, but at the same time it tasted like candy. The girl who threw it didn't notice until I turned to one of the St. Ed's kids and said: "Putain! Merde! C'est mon deuxieme jour dans France, et déjà!" She apologized in english and the lesbian who had peed her pants continued her drunken shenanigans. Aside from the drink situation, the night was a complete blast! The girls that we met from Minnosota that are studying with CDEF at UCO (which is the campus that I'm at and CDEF is the typical exchange program) were a lot of fun and they invited us to a picnic on Sunday, so we'll see.
As of right now, I'm sticky and tired. I'll be up in 6 hours to start this ride all over again! Tomorrow should be exciting though because there will be an excursion! More later, and pictures are on Facebook!
