hahaha soooo life! lets see! Yesterday was turkey day and im sure you didnt hardly notice either. seeing as how its my favorite holiday i was soooo excited and told all of my friends multiple times, to which they said cool wei li. (with bored faces). they did not appreciate my holiday. haha but the english class i help with had a dinner last night that Leland and i went to. it was funny. Francois, the fat man from the office, was there and he&nbsp;asked&nbsp;where my friend yvi was. i was like y? and he said we're always together. it was very funny. and today me and yvi ssaw francois several times and we just started laughing everytime (i told him the story, he thought it was histarical). last night we ate turkey, mash potatoes and yams (the only way to tell the difference was the yams were orange, they were puree) and a boilled carrot. oh and pumpkin soup. the prof was like is it just like home? (about the soup which you know we do no thave in america) so i was like dying laughing but trying not to let her see. for dessert we had pecan pie that was actually really good. the diner wasnt that good but it was the effort that counts. the kids in the english class had memorized a sentance each about the story of thanksgiving and they said it kind of in a popcorn way where they just stood up when it was there turn. it was adorable with their accents. and it snowed! for the first time. it was very crappy snow but leland freaked out and made me take pictures for her. while i was taking a pic after dinner these gangsters walked by (there arent many real gangters in Bourges but lots of rich wanna-be's) anyway they heard us speaking english and starting mocking us and then&nbsp;when they were farther&nbsp;away they called back "les grosses salopes!" which means&nbsp;big&nbsp;whores! hahah we were like thanks! they thought we&nbsp;wouldnt understand.&nbsp;this was all after Leland got water thrown on her by the intern kids. (the boys dorm is right above the street). it was a great night. 
i dont know if you remember what cold feels like, but its getting down into that really cold cold that when you go outside it sucks the heat out of you and the wind whips around you. and it rains every day so everything is always wet and&nbsp; freezing. im slowly dying.
i had another, much less, embarressing moment. i came home one day and i told my h mom it was raining. she got really sad and worried looking. i was like only a little! later my h sis Glad was like, you cried today? and i was like no. Glad: huh, mom said you told her you cried. i said pleurer instead of pluie. very big difference. hahaha it was so funny. and then we sang really terribly to "Fireworks" by Katy Perry and some weird french music. it was grand. 
at this exact moment i am texting yvi trying to convince him that there isn't a difference in formal and informal you in english. in french vous is the formal you and tu is the informal. vous is also plural you like for a crowd. he doesnt understand how he can tell me "meet you at the movies" while im standing with Leland and how she'll know hes talking to me. he thinks shed show up too! bahaha im like we just know who youre talking to! i never thought of you as a problem. it just works! unlike the vous/tu! you can really get some panties in a bunch if you say vous to someone youre close to or say tu to an adult or someone you dont really know too well. its hard! you is way easier! do you have something like this in portugese?
