Thanks CH

I wrote this in June. It is kind of weird. This was when I was still in culture shock a bit and always felt like I was making society faux pas. This is also when I still frequently/embarrassingly ended sentences with, yeah? :

Sorry about your cherries and raspberries. Thanks for planting your fig trees close to the fence though, brb. If you created roads that went straight from one point to another then I wouldn't have to blaze my own shortcuts right through your backyards, crops, and vineyards. But I get it that your baby grapes are prettier and more culturally and economically relevant than quick transport. I find it very considerate that you provide little stone pathways and steps and drinking fountains that connect all the vineyards to surrounding roads. So inviting, almost like you want me to come chill on Sundays, when I know you are not allowed to work and therefore will not stumble upon me while I am sunbathing. So it's like a timeshare, yeah?



Maybe if we can agree on this, I will stop gawking at your garden clusters/picnic huts. I mean to be fair, the first time, it was because I had never heard of supplementary allottments for flats. I thought maybe there really were poor folk in Switzerland? But listen, whether or not I stop to rubberneck, that isn't a backyard. You are all next to the highway for god's sake. And your bros' allotments are next to the main railroad. Double decker style peering out at you. It is almost like you all have your own garden party shows. You're all together and facing each other, with everyone else's fruit and flowers brushing against your butt when you sit on the benches, so it's like a competition, too,no? With mobile spectators? Maybe everyone driving by on the motorways and riding by in trains could somehow vote quickly as they pass? But I digress. Despite the shortcomings of your wimpy land plots, next Sunday when I'm on the way to your neighbors' vineyards, I promise not to look. I promise not to lean over the highway railings (there's a sidewalk along the highway yeah mom.) trying to peer into your windows to see if you have beds in those huts. And if I'm on the train, I'll pull down my shade when I pass. And if I am on the train I might have a ticket to be there, too. Maybe I'll even stay in second class but probably not because I know I look innocent and I can just speak English and say I've never been on a train like this before and I thought this was second class. Oh also sorry for always propping my feet up on the seat across from me but I don't think I'll be able to stop doing that. Conductors, don't you feel like grandma when you ask me to put my feet down? Your train may be Swiss and efficient and yours. But it isn't a parlor, and my feet are small. Alright? Yeah I also don't feel bad for that or the time that the Swiss Dolce and Gabbana sunglasses tennis shoes Versace white capris couple was aggressively making out, and I pointed it out to Anais, and then she shouted "They're kissing themselves!" and tugged on euroboy's arm. And I don't really feel bad for letting her hang out the train windows because I love when she yells "I'm not afraid of anything" into your faces. Or maybe into your allotments. And I cannot sincerely apologize for loving when she said fuck it. It was precious. Yes precious she's a porcelain angel with spunk

I believe that chocolate has caffeine in it, a lot. I have watched far too many Mona le Vampires today, although I like what the overexposure is doing for my French. Big trees are da bomb and mystical. As much as I am not missing home right now, I want to be there NOW, preferably without packing. I do not believe that I have still not seen HP6. I think the first thing I will do on Thursday the 20th is get my hair cut- what does that say about how I rank people in my life? Didn't mean to get serious there but really....missin my hairdresser the most?

Why do I eat eggs? I mean I liked how meat tasted. gosh,BBQ, my grandma's chicken salad, salmon... Like wouldn't you rather kill someone whose death was going to give you immense satisfaction than kill an unborn baby whose death was just for protein, because you were against killing grown people, and hungry and could not find a single fucking vegetarian entree in all of Europe-without prior research- that wasn't green salad? I am not sure how much sense that metaphor just made. It was probably stupid. But I would never eat meat again. And I have now successfully concluded that I would rather eat meat than eggs, so I won't eat eggs anymore.

Also until recently, I had not since middle school on two seperate occasions kissed a boy who smoked and/or ate meat. Not purposefully, or else I would be weird and annoying, this is just something I realized. I think a boy eating meat can be attractive and hearty, though I'm over thinking smoking is ever sultry or just a normal vice. It is gross, stop it, smoke weed or do something else awful for you instead, something that's actually fun.

Lol at this entry sounding a little like a rant now though. I meant to make fun of myself for eating eggs and only habitually kissing vegetarians. Both are weird and dumb.

Lastly, you gottttaaa read Experience by Emerson because it's da bomb.

I found tiles in the lake and I'm making a frame for the parents. Before bed we tried to get a good picture...

We are such stuff
As dreams are made on, and our little life
Is rounded with a sleep
