If i could turn back time...

Yesterday morning, i was picking up my laundry from the rack outside my window, when i dropped a pair of funky boxer shorts – you know, the silvery silky ones – which happened to end up on my downstairs neighbour’s rack. i was facing a dilemma: going straight away – at 7am! – to my neighbour’s to ask for my underwear, or wait until i co

What's the name of the game? does it mean anything to you?...

On tuesday 7 february, the school organised a pub quiz night for staff. some of you out there know very well how keen i am on taking part in this kind of shit, and so when david – the spanish teacher – asked me to be part of his team, i almost wet myself with excitement! now, i must confess that i wasn’t really sure about our team’s potenti

If we took a holiday...

I’ve just come back from fantastic holidays in the western desert, between egypt and libya. marie, marie-christine, mario and i started with el alamein – where the second world war famous battle took place. all the cemeteries and battle remains are quite depressing there but the mediterranean seaside is gorgeous and you feel like you’re in so

No, i’m not gonna watch you, ‘cause i’m not the one that’s crazy…

Today i felt very out of place in shanghai... first, clare, marie-eve and i went to the annual shanghai design art and fashion fair which took place along the river banks. the three of us were looking forward to finding out about the cool stuff happening in the city... and as soon as we arrived, i was like wtf?! the place was full of tw*ts who were

The rest of february was not very exciting and i’m afraid i don’t have much to say... on saturday 11th, marie-eve and i went to a spanish night in a random bar in town, as we are both quite keen on the spaniards, with their dark looks and their charming accent... it did feel like being in spain, as everyone around us was speaking spanish, and e

So where was i ?... oh yes, our trip to dahab! what a great experience… when we arrived at our hotel on tuesday 8 february, there were about ten guests, it felt like we had the whole place to ourselves… because of what was happening in cairo, tourists had fled and the hotel staff were feeling quite down. we even found out that most of the emplo

Vive les vacances, vive l'insouciance...

In april, my mother came to visit for two weeks. we started with shanghai, as i hadn’t had the opportunity to visit the touristiest bits of the city yet. on sunday 1 april, we went to the world financial centre – which is the fourth tallest building in the world – and we had the scariest – and most embarrassing! – experience ever... once

Can you pay my bills? can you pay my telephone bills?...

Ok, may was a funny month... i started looking for a new flat in the city centre, as i am fed up with living in the south east suburbs where everything seems so far away – except for my school, which is literally down the road! but who wants to live near their workplace?! ugh. on sunday 6 may, i went to the french consulate to vote for our new pr

Ok, so what’s happened since the last time i wrote something on this blog?... which was like 25 years ago! well, in may we had our 4 days long weekend for labour day and marie-eve and i decided to go to hainan – a chinese island in the south china sea. we arrived on the friday evening in sanya – the main island resort – and were really impr

I hope you hang yourself with your h&m scarf...

On saturday 10 march, marie-eve and i were having a lovely meal at a tapas bar, when marie-eve received a text message and started some frantic texting while laughing her head off. as i was inquiring about it all, she explained that a male colleague of hers had seen some pictures of me on the internet and was keen on meeting me... i was flattered b
