Ok, so I had a tumblr. Now I have a blogger. Do you see a pattern here? I guess I'm kind of starting over here because I do want to keep in touch with all of you over this summer. I guess I just really have to ask; wat on earth is going on? I'm stuck using the smallest and slowest computer in the world to try to figure this all out (on top of it it's in french!). Will someone just fill me in on everything I've missed in the first few days of this summer camp? That would be really helpful, thanks.
I think I'll talk a bit about how my summer has been going so far. For the past few weeks I've been working my but off to get my level one license in meditteranean scuba diving. I know that in the U.S. it's really simple to get your license, but in france it's so hard! Luckily, yesterday I got my shiny new diver's license (I know it sounds like "driver's license") in the mail. I was so happy because I could now dive at night, and in new/exciting places, and deeper and deeper.
Besides diving, I've been working a lot. I work on boats all summer long with this guy right downstairs from my apartment. We give water skiing rides, wakeboard rides, and inflatable rides all day long. In the morning I come early to wakeboard and the rest of the day is fun work with people. I'm really useful because a lot of the tourists who come only speak english, and the guy who I work with speaks zip english.
My grandma and I go out every night to a different resteraunt along the beach. After we eat, we go walking around in the coolest part of the french riviera. It's really bright and loud and people just crowd the streets and the roadsare blocked off and there are tons of awesome stores and we love it. It's like a cross between Williamsburg (Brooklyn) and chelsea at night. Amazing.
Despite all this, I'm also doing a lot of reading. I've already finished two of the three books I bought before I left. They were both very good. The were called With or Without You and Stupid Fast. I preffered Stupid Fast though because it was lighter, funnier, and simply better written than the other book.
Besides that, not much is going on in Ilan Land. Hope to keep in touch with all of you guys over the summer. Peace.
I know what it feels like when you talk about having to figure the whole blogger.com site in a different language. I have to do it though in swedish, if only there was a way to translate the whole site to a different language! I don't understand however when you say that the spell check sucks on blogger.com because I didn't even know there was one! Or for that matter on tumblr.com! oh well, bye!
