Consensus: ham and cheese is lame

For those of you who wake up every morning checking their computers to see what I have posted, you are in luck. Currently I have much to discuss and the time to tell it.

I'll start with the now. I'm rockin to the Kings of Leon, drinking a Desperado, eating un abricot caton (sans conservateur o colorant) in my FANTASTIC HOSTEL ROOM. I have a room for four, but I'm the only one here until Friday. Its huge!!! in a quiet location, the reception understands my franglish, nice hardwood, ample lighting, its very comfortable. Pictures when I get back to Cannes, I promise.

6:40 am
wake up before my alarm goes off
i distantly hear peacebone in my mind
i cant wait
but
the after effects of celebrating st. patricks day are preventing much efficiency in these early hours
scribble map of where hostel is in notebook before leaving my room
"I'll find it when I get there"
good thing i stole a rasperry tart from the cafeteria
sitting across from a skinny man who could not stop rubbing his nose and mustache

it was a long train ride.

"I could be productive currently, but I'm just enjoying th(my h key sticks. its annoying)e ride, dozing off, thinking, not speaking. I am going somewhere, which is exactly wat I want to do right now---- this could be a mistake because technically I should be in class-- maybe this will be the mistake I need. It's good to be away from Cannes, especially after seeing Paris - I want to see everwere. When I get back I will have 5 days of hard work and most importantly improvement before I go to the farm."

I brought some nuts and raisins with me for the train ride- it reminds me of Sasquatch.

NANTES
its like PORTLAND, but in FRANCE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

So I arrived in the city safely. I walked to the metro, soaking in the skyline over the river, green trees, skater kids, bikes everywhere- wait where am I???
The street signs here are on buildings and walls. Power and telephone lines are attached to buildings. no poles.

Then I got really lost. It was getting dark. I was walking around- my rusack became increasingly more heavy to lug around the city. It turned out this morning when I scribbled my map, well my homemade map was completely incorrect, and I found a differently building that looking like an abandoned apartment building with the same address as the hostel. After some dispair I walked in a circle to find a fancy building with a neon sign. oh there it is.

I have a million ideas of what I want to do these next two days before I see Animal Collective. Currently I'm just extremely happy to be in my safe big room with wifi listening to music.

LOVE from my new favorite city- am I allowed to change my mind so quickly?
