Jill ne sais quoi

All the French students have this week off. We do not. However, some of our professors have canceled class, so it's not too bad. I only had one class today, which was fabulous. But since the cafeteria is closed for the week, we had to go into Centre Ville to get lunch.

After lunch I came home to find Christine, her niece Diane (who is staying with us for the week), and Christine's friend Christine (the wording for this sentence was so difficult) at the table playing a game, which they invited me to join. It was called "Oui et Non" and you were asked a serious of bizarre questions like "Is it raining? Do you know if it will rain tomorrow? Do you like the sun or the rain better? Did you say rain? Are you sure?" The thing is that you are not allowed to respond with "oui" or "non", you can't repeat answers and you can't shake or nod your head. It was very hard, but really fun.

Then Diane came upstairs and hung out with me for a bit. She's 10. I let her use my sweet marker-pens (I'll post a picture of them soon, I promise. They're so fabulous) and we chatted while I did some homework and she drew. Then we watched some French TV together. Tomorrow we're all going to eat dinner together, which should be fun.
