The season of social life!

Since I managed to survive my rather exhausting week of finals at the ISC, working as much as possible, inbetween going to last classes and doing my final assignements and projects and presentations and.... I survived. :)
The worst thing that happened was my computer's charger breaking down! Just before all the deadlines. I cried! :D Therefore, I had one hell of a weekend - working in the mornings and working online on my schoolstuff until early hours after work...slept about 10 hours during 4 days. Because I had to give back the charger I got from school for the weekend. Oh my, oh my... Was I tired.
It was the weekend when they turned the time (nicely put, uh?) ... meaning that, when they turned clocks 1h at 3am in the morning. What happened was that I had to study, but I was way too tired for it, so I had an idea to wake up at 4am! Done and done!
So I woke up after snoozing my alarm a couple of times... made myself a hudge cup of coffeeeeee, opened my computer... and this was when I realized: My computer was 6am, estonian cell 5am and frency one 4am. How confusing is that! :)
I did what any other smartass would do - googled it! and it was 5 am! Bummer - I had lost 1h of valuable studying time!


OOOHHHH, another funny thing. And I'm 110% sure that some of you would say that if it happened to anyone, it would be me....or something like that. So, I had a french exa on 2nd April at 8am. I was working the day before, untli 5pm, meaning that I had exactly 15h to do my final effort. I studied until 23pm, tired and my beautiful little head felt like a football. As usual - sleep a little, feel fresh and go for it. So I set the alarm for 3am. When I woke up it was 8.10 am!!!!
Can you imagine me: having the World Record-fast shower (when I got to the point water was running, I was already closing it... almost getting dressed and doing my make-up the same time) ... IN case wondering....While being that late, why bother with the make-up! Well, I did tell you about the La Seduction - as simple as that! No woman shall leave the house looking crappy! :)
You can not belive how mad I was at myself. When the slow-motion elevator was going down and I was running towards the doors leading to the street....I was thinking: "Please, I hope that this could be just another funny story of my life one day!" Because, they are very strict here in what comes to things like that. Exams are big deal here and the bureauocracy that goes along with almost any official thing is amazing. Someone said that french wanted to be special - well in that field, they are...oh, yes, they are! :)
Lesson of the day was: No stress. Always doublecheck your alarm. Good communication skills are THE asset.
I got to take the exam with the next group an hour later.
:) So me, right! :) (Things still do happen to me) :)

Soooooo, back to my visitors. Firstly. Karina, Mariliis ja Laura already came and left. K & M said they liked it here (and to be honest, it's Paris....it's MY Paris they got a glimpse of---ofcourse they would love it...anyone would!!! Not to be nosy or anything, but I love my life here, I do).

Now, Kadi, my sweet-beautiful-smart cousin is coming from the South. And this is what Paris with her will be like:
+ some nice dinners and my favourite - vintage shopping at Hotel de Ville and St Paul ...Marais, Paris. :)

Then It's Gerlooooooo & Mait coming on the first weekend of May! Yay!
It will be something like that:
No, we will (most likely) not get body-paintings and pose of the rooftops... But the picture illustrates the idea of having a weekend out of the ordinary. There is no doubt in that. Can't wait to get Paris down with you guys. Gerlo - good thing here is that the OLD TOWN starts when I step out of the house... or actually, the house is rather old-townish.... so oh, it will be a blast! :)

AND! Then it's Räiluuuu, ma cherie! A week of full slightly classy sightseeing, gourmet brunches...going into depth with enjoying those small little pleasures of life. From the morning espresso&cigarette to the overall cognition of THE city and it's lifestyle.

Oh yeah! Can't wait for you to come. :)

Bisou-bisou. Greetings from Paris!
