Laundry and Smoking

So, I find the doing the laundry, and not smoking, is like really good. Here I do lots of laundry, well, not lots, but..a normal amount, especially on the weekends. The laundry goes into the maching, and then I get to hang it out on a clothes line for drying. Its pretty awesome, and makes me feel productive... The french people are really engery saving. Like, the whole house has tons of windows, and you never need to turn on a light until 7 o'cklock at night.

And I dont know if I told you guys this, but like.. theres this huge open section in the middle of the school, its outside, and theres actually like a smoking section for all the kids who smoke. Its kinda crazy, and when I found out about it..I was like whoa. And then I got use to all the kids smoking and shit, and then one time this guy named Axel was helping me with reading a Fable, hes 16, and he just pulled out Tabacco and started rolling a cigarette right in the school, inside. I was like uh...what are you doing? But its strange and odd, people just carry cigarretts around, and one of my good friends smoke, and like 5 people in my class do. Kinda bizarre... but.. interesting in a way, the whole different culture thing. But dont fret, mm'kay, I am not gonna smoke..like..eeew.

So, I just wanted to fill you in on the culture a little bit more...
