Dear people with access to French cds.

You suck. Ok, not really. You rock. It's just that the French selections around here suck. And why am I especially rantful about this right now? Because Merwan Rim has a new cd due out on Monday (but it's already being sold in some stores across France...don't worry, he knows). And guess what? I can't get it. I mean I COOOULD order it on Amazon. But I don't like dealing with real-virtual money. Even in the form of gift cards. I guess I might cave in on this one though. He released the music to this one website so that they could play it and people could hear the entire cd....it's so gooood! And I used to be ehh about his voice because it's pretty high, mind you it's no where NEAR Christophe Willem's O.o, but it's so pretty...and clear. It's like glass. And he did a song in English. In English! Can you believe it? You wanna know what's even more surprising? His English is practically perfect. You seriously can't tell he's French when he sings in English! And some people you can, especially if they other wise don't speak a lick of it. And so, I've come to the conclusion that Merwan knows English pretty darn well. Where am I even going with this??? Ok...so yeah...he did a song in English and it's good...VERY good. And I mean, he's not a bad looking guy. He's like the kind of French guy that you would be very happy to meet at a club one night on spring break in Paris. Or whatever. You know what I mean? So either he needs to start singing more English to get his music over here, or Americans need to wake up and smell the café au lait!

Café au lait.



Merwan Rim.



















I'll take both please!

-.-

SIGH. Don't you hate it when you find out that someone you...like...having in your life might be moving across the country?!?! Gahhhhhhhhh! :'( [Gracie, I haven't told you about this yet. So if you'd like more info....you know how to contact me]


Well, others than that it has been a good....how ever long ago I found this out. Oh, except for the freaking NRJs on Saturday. (NRJ music awards is a French music awards show.) Merwan Rim didn't win, even though he totally deserved it, and Christophe Maé didn't win, even though he also deserved it. Instead all of these people I don't care about won. Well, Adele (International Song of the Year for Someone like You) is pretty good...And Shakira (NRJ Award of Honor), too. But then they had to go and give the male Award of Honor to Justin Bieber. I mean really? In my opinion, he hasn't been in the business long enough! Sure it's nice to see newbies rise to the top...but he's just this little tween sensation. He should be getting Nickelodeon awards. Not and "Award of Honor."
HUFF. Well...that's my complaint for Saturday.

Hmmmm....Let's see....what else....Well I can't really complain much about today. Except that I have a math test tomorrow and have to have a scene memorized by Friday when I just got it today...Thanks Beets. Thanks.

I just can't wait for this week to be over. Actually, after tomorrow's test it shouldn't be too bad. Anything else that I've forgotten? Well if I think of it later I'll tell you.

Planning it now.

Well. I've decided. In however many years, I'm going to France. And I'm taking my friend Gracie with me. And we are going to shop. And eat. And be annoying American tourists. And the first thing on our to eat list is this:


This, is the Maé. It is a chocolate covered creme brulee. 

What's that? Why yes, it is related to my favorite/the world's hottest French singer/songwriter/stage performer Christophe Maé. Actually, his family owns Pâtisserie Martichon in Carpentras which is where one would find such a sinfully delicious masterpiece. Gracie and I are going to eat these. And not share. So ha. Ha ha. 

We will also eat this: 
 No idea what it's called, but it's chocolate and it looks amazing. 

I will also be taking the world's coolest picture that needs to be perfectly taken: Standing directly under the Eiffel Tower and looking straight up. That is on my bucket list. I NEED that picture. (Knowing me I'll take like ten of them.) Oh, and of course various pictures of the tower all lit up. 

And then we are going to do some other stuff...Feel free to add any ideas in the comments!








...Wow...we need to start saving up...
