Haiku Wednesday

The Fourth of July
I'd rather be in Paris,
Only four more days.

A week in Paris continued...

It may be independance day in America, but in France it's just another beautiful summer day.

July 4th in Paris:

The Valentino Fall 2012 show.
The colors of fall by Valentino.

A tweet from Derek Basberg this morning:

"Basic black, fire red, simple coats, gowns embellished with fur and crystals: Something for every (presumably, rich) woman at Valentino!"


Oh, how I wish I was in Paris!

Á bientôt, Paris!

Everything happens in Paris, and I will be there in five days!

So, I'm counting down the days and watching what's happening á la belle Paris...

July 2nd- Dior celebrates new creative designer, Raf Simons and his beautiful fall collection.

Gorgeous white dresses and walls covered in flowers.
July 3rd-  Chanel hosts a garden party (white wicker chairs and all!) to debut the "New Vintage" fall fashion.

Haiku Wednesday

No parents at home
sleepless nights under the stars
and hot tub parties.

Nobody will care
if I stay up very late
and sleep in till noon.

No parents at home
the cats have started to rule
in my parents' place.

The Life of an Orphan.

My parents are gone for two weeks on a camping trip leaving my sister and me to fend for ourselves at home (is this something I should share with the world wide web? Oh well...) and so I have decided to chronicle a few of the lessons I've learned from living the life of a foul bachelorette.

1. Passion Tea stains the counters.
















         
                2. The temperature button on the hot tub is not a toy.



(Upon hearing the temperature of the hot tub yesterday, one of my friends said, "We're going to slowly cook our insides!" ... after about fifteen minutes of cooking we decided to add some cold hose water.)







3. The mail comes every day except Sunday.

                                                                                               












4. It is possible to watch too much TV.
















Besides having to reclean the house almost daily (it is impossibly hard to keep a clean house when you're having fun!) I am having a lovely time living on my own.
I could definitely get used to this:)


More to come soon...

Haiku Wednesday

A finished paper,
the last quiz has been taken.
now wait for finals.

The sun does not shine,
I know it's not summer yet.
Tomorrow maybe?
