faire du shopping

Shopping. shopping. SHoPpIng. shopping.
That's what I did today; le 13 Octobre. I had Daryl's class this morning, then after that hit the streets to do some serious damage. Okay not really. We went to bellerose first, a store we've walked by amillion times &been dying to go in. SUCH cute stuff in there, but whadoyaknow everything costs at least 200 euros. Not exactly in my price range. They had adorable kids' clothes there though also. I want this fur coat not only for myself but for my daughter as well. Dying. We went to a couple other stores that are right next to the institute where we had class. Not impressed with them all. Except for oysho, a fav. Its like pink/victorias secret. I got some pajama pants {because I didn't even bring any} and a cute flannel nightgown/shirty thing. I'm way excited about both purchases. And no that's not all I bought.. I got a couple other things but I didn't go completely insane.

The dogs are really reaaally tiny in france. It's the craziest thing.\

France makes you crave smoothies. They don't really have them here. Or at least they don't have jamba juice aNNYwhere and I always want it. So we've been talking about smoothies for pretty much a month now, and a couple weeks ago we found a place called smooth n cake that had a huge variety of real smoothies. I don't remember why we didn't go in then but I have not had a smoothie yet. Until today. I was absolutely parched, maybe because I had to pee literally five times in one hour last night, but I wanted, no needed a smoothie. So we went to smooth n cake :)
I got a raspberry, mango, and orange juice smoothie.
I was so so so so so excited you have no idea.

&Literally five seconds later my cup looked like this..

On to the cute parisian stuff;
We went and sat in the tuileries for a little while. We were exhausted and need just to relax for a while. I love going into the tuileries. Its so peaceful and so gorgeous and you always see fun stuff going on.
We sat around a little fountain/pond that had a man with these adorable boats. I wanted to get one so badly. But they obvs costed some amount of euro which I did not have.

Watching this little boy play with the boats was better than getting my own though. And yes I'm positive his mother and sister saw me taking pictures of him while he ran around the fountain pushing all the little boats away from the side and into the middle. It was just too cute to pass up!__________________________________________________________________

This is what Paris is allll about. I see this multiple times a day. And normally in the U.S. I hate p.d.a. but in Paris, I looove it. You can't help but stare. And wish that was you. By the way I'm on an all girls study abroad.. We don't get to talk to boys much. The extent of our boy talking has really just been the missionaries. And that's not really gonna happen..
This one was getting a little intense.. but they're french and they don't care, the other part I love.

My new winter pajamas. I have been freezing at night in the apartment. I would say its time for the heater to be turned on.. that is, if we have a heater here I'm not really sure. It gets so cold at night though, I sleep in leggings, sometimes doubled, my yoga pants, and a sweatshirt over multiple shirts. Oh and with socks.. I hate sleeping in socks. But its a must.

Paris.. please don't get too cold, I'm not ready.
And, I reached into my nightstand to get some midnight snacks and I only had ONE swedish fish left. Goodbye secret american deliciousness.
