Beautiful Paris

Today I went to a restaurant with my friends Joanne, Flo and Thibault to have a brunch.

It was great! I loved the place, there was a live jazz band and it was good and not too expensive (24€).

I had been told about that place a long time ago by a friend and I recommend it: Le réservoir

Unfortunately, we had a table close to the stage and the music was a little too loud to hear each other very well. But when the singer was done, it was ok.

Then, we had a walk with Thibault to digest all that food (it's a buffet). We went from Place de la Bastille to l'île de la Cité through l'île Saint Louis.

It was very enjoyable, the sun was warm and it reminded me of that nice end of summer we had here in Paris. Because I remember when I came back from Los Angeles at the beginning of September, it was raining and so cold! I thought summer was definitively over here!

Anyway, I don't know what it is but we saw big eyes on some of the bridges and big pictures on the walls along the Seine. It was very strange at first but kind of nice...

And just so you know, I took the pictures with my new iPhone ;). It worked: I was able to terminate my previous phone contract and get my so desired phone!

Is Ken gay?

My boyfriend just bought a doll: It's a Ken...

He had one before, an old one, and he bought the new one for the clothes because he had to make it look like an Artistic Director for a school project...

I came home and he was cursing at it:

"the texture is cheaper than the old one, it's stiffer..."

I was already laughing, but that wasn't it!

He had to change the color of its tie (the doll was wearing a suit): it was pink!!

It had a sleeveless shirt and pants made in an awful synthetic fabric, orthopedic shoes and a jacket with cheap buttons that fell immediately...

Moreover, the new Ken is smaller, but has bigger feet than the former one, so now the old one looks like it's gay with the new one's clothes (the shirt is super tight), but has shoes too big for it.

It's ridiculous! But it was sooo funny :D

IPhone

Why does it seem that everyone has an IPhone but me?

I feel trapped. I want badly one but I have still one year to go with my contract and if I terminate it now, it will cost me around 100€. Now I realise it's not that much and that it would still be less expensive to do that and have a new IPhone with a new contract than to just buy one for 600€... But it used to be more expensive a few months ago...

The thing is, I broke my former phone last February and now I have an incredibly old one that don't even have a color screen... or a camera!

My great phone

So now everytime I see something great in Paris I wanna share with you, like a beautiful sunset on Place de la Concorde or an amazing contemporary building, which is not that common in here, I think: "Damn I wish I had not lost my camera and I had an IPhone!"

Last week, I sent a letter to the phone company to tell them I was no longer using my phone anymore in order to terminate the contract without any breaking fees. If this works, I will be able to get an IPhone for a reasonable price.

But in the meantime, if you think you're missing something in this blog because of my not having an IPhone, of course you are more than welcome to help me. I will accept any form of donation!
