I slept well finally!!...I slept next to the heater so I was nice and cozy..Its been freezing here in Paris for the past couple days..Anyway, my day began with my American Business School orientation..I took the metro all by myself and walked down the streets just looking at the signs and I found it!!.I was like 30 minutes early, too..lol...So I waited in the lobby and talked to some other ABS students from all over the U.S. Then the orientation began..It was the basics we went over school, cell phones, metro, shopping, etc...After about an hour, the orientation finished..And we had our pictures taken by the secretary...By this time, my stomach was growling..I met up with my new ABS friends, one from Florida and the other from Minnesota...We decided to walk until we found something for lunch..We found a little shop that looked like they had really good baguette sandwiches so we stoppped there..It was a little treasure on the street..Because it was very good..We all ordered a panini with chicken cheese and tomato...And I spoke to the woman in French...and asked her to also take our photo....It was great...After eating our delicious sandwiches we decided to do some sightseeing...We got on the Metro that would take us to les champs elysees, arc de triomphe, tour eiffel, etc..Everything was right there and sooo amazing...we walked down the champs elysees in awe...and the arc de triomphe was huge...we walked underneath it...the tour eiffel...was simply amazing and beautiful...the line wasn't too long so we stood in line and went up it...it was so breathtaking standing up there so high being able to see Paris....After we finished at the eiffel tower, we went searching for a metro station...finally, we found one..the two guys caught one going the other direction and me and Devin caught the other..it took me about 20 minutes to get home..i rushed home..and opened the door and found my sim card package waiting..and so now my cell phone works!!..yay...i got ready..Bruno came over and we just went to a little fast food place called Quick...we ate there....then we decided to go somewhere for desert or drinks..I ordered this strawberry mango sorbet which was freakin delicious...We talked for awhile, comparing the U.S. and France and then we left...We came back to my apartment and watched Dumb and Dumber in French..hihihi...Bruno left and I used my cell to call my mom...finally i went to sleep at 4 am...it was a very exciting day!
