gala juste pour rire

voila donc, je suis allee a un gala juste pour rire hier soir, anime par Laurent Paquin, un humoriste que j'aime bien. C'etait drole mais long. Et oui, je deviens vieille ... j'ai mal a me concentrer ... et ca m'a coute 40$ mine de rien!

On a eu droit a Francois morency, Francois mascotte, Maxime Matte, Jean Marc Parent, Stephane Rousseau (pas pire), Guy Nantel (the best), Jean thomas (l'absurde) et un jeune. Le pire sketch etait presente par une femme, snif. Je n'ai rien compris a celui d'un handicape qui est venu faire son show. Enfin, le co-auteur de la serie des Bourgon y etait present aussi.

Les themes? la politique, la surconsommation, les policiers, les jeunes, les enfants, les revendications, les expressions francaises, etc.

j'aurai mieux fait de le voir a la tv!!!!!

Le petit Poisson et le Pecheur

Une fable que j'aime énormément! Carpe diem!

Petit poisson deviendra grand
Pourvu que Dieu lui prête vie;
Mais le lâcher en attendant,
Je tiens pour moi que c'est folie:
Car de le rattraper il n'est pas trop certain

Un carpeau, qui n'était encore que fretin,
Fut pris par un pêcheur au bord d'une rivière.
«Tout fait nombre, dit l'homme en voyant son butin;
Voilà commencement de chère et de festin :
Mettons-le en notre gibecière.»
Le pauvre carpillon lui dit en sa manière :
«Que ferez-vous de moi ? Je ne saurais fournir
Au plus qu'une demi-bouchée.
Laissez-moi carpe devenir :
Je serai par vous repêchée;
Quelque gros partisan m'achètera bien cher :
Au lieu qu'il vous en faut chercher
Peut-être encor cent de ma taille
Pour faire un plat. Quel plat ? croyez-moi, rien qui vaille.
- Rien qui vaille ? Eh bien ! soit, repartit le pêcheur :
Poisson, mon bel ami, qui faites le prêcheur,
Vous irez dans la poêle; et vous avez beau dire,
Dès ce soir on vous fera frire .»

Un Tiens vaut, ce dit-on, mieux que deux Tu l'auras;
L'un est sûr, l'autre ne l'est pas.

Fable de Lafontaine

Spirite Lounge experience

Finally, i went to this gay village vegetarian restaurant last night. A friend recommended this place to me. It's weird ... the decoration comes from a dollar store, there is way too much stuff.
The rules are: we have to finish our plate, otherwise, there is 2$ charge and we can't have dessert and we are on their black list!
There is no menu, everybody gets the same food. It's a daring and cheap concept, i find.

we had a cold soup, make with orange, litchi, tomatoes, red pepper, almond and coconut milk and much more. There is no milk (because it comes from cows) and no eggs. Interesting.

i like the soup, since it was sweet. then we had crepes with all kinds of vegetables and fruits. it was good.

L. and A-T didn't like the place too much because they are not used to the mix of salt and sweet (veggies and fruits), but i like it ...
their mix is very interesting because they try to put so many ingredients together! but sometimes, it can be risky!

Last night, i ate a lot since i had to finish my portion ... there are 3 sizes: regular, reduced and kid's. We all had the reduced size ... couldn't take the risk of not finishing it... haahha ... i want to come back!!!!!!!!!

I miss you so much ....




Beautiful Paris!

this is
where i used to live ... 117 boulevard Richard Lenoir, Paris 11e, 5th floor, i think :)

travel back in time ...






My brother was in Paris last week and took those pictures ...

What a nostalgy! It was so long time ago ... Here are the schools i went to when i was in Paris. In the chronological order, primary school at Paris 10e, then Paul Brejat (Houilles), then Pihet Paris 11e, and finally College Beaumarchais, Paris 11e.

So many memories, so much fun and ignorance of the real world...

toilettes mixtes ...

this past Saturday, with some friends, we decided to go to the gay village to eat. we found a very nice terrasse, the view was amazing! it's called the sky pub, i had the sex on the beach cocktail and a hamburger. the food was just so so but it was expensive.
But, what we didn't expect was the mixed washrooms, girls can see guys doing their business. that's not fun. Lucky me i hadn't drunk too much so i didn't have to go to the washrooms ...

Then, we went to see the fireworks, it was Canada's turn to perform and illuminate the Montreal's sky! It was the first time that I saw Canada performing. Canada is always in the competition year after year but they never win ...

That night, i think their fireworks were fine but i have seen better finales.

I love you!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

ok, i think i found the love of my life :)
Yep, he is young, handsome, rich (i hope so), hot, flies high and is from LAVAL !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I was watching the world aquatic competition today and Alexandre Despatie stole the gold medal at the 3m dive and dominated everybody else. To me, all the divings were the same but apparently he was the best and set a world record of more than 800 points.

Go Alexandre Go!!!! muahhhhhhhhhhhh

Chinese medecine ...




I am amazed ... I went to see a Chinese doctor today. What he said was so true and i hadn't told him anything ... he was just taking my pulse ...

the problem is that i have to drink the medecine, all those herbs, which taste awful!! it's always a nightmare for me ...

Of course, while i was waiting for my medication, 2 ladies were trying to guess my age, their guess??? 16 or at most 18!!! they are so off ... even though they are Chinese ... How come am i so deceiving?

Nobody can ever guess my age!!!

Action time!




That's what i saw yesterday night, just down my place! I thought somebody hit it ... I was so excited! I thought i was right at the heart of the action!! Finally, something happens in Laval (not just thieves breaking through our store)!!!! but no, they were just cleaning the whole system or something .... Ah, what a waste of water!

huhh??? (bis)

Last night, i went to see my Cisco teacher in order to ask him to activate the exams that i had missed.
During the conversation, he asked me if i was Chinese, i said yes and then he added "are you sure???"
huhh? i paused, then i said "yes -- why"
he answered " just like that "
i didn't insist ... but man, it doesn't make me feel good!!! My teacher is Mexican, what does he know about the Chinese people and why did he assume that i wasn't Chinese???!!!!

Am i that non-Chinese that even other people can notice it????

huh???!

just finished watching the anime Wolf's rain ... it was a very captivating and interesting series ... but i didn't understand the end. was it too philosophical, too mystical?? i don't know ... i just hate it when i don't understand ... it ruined the whole thing ... but it made me think!!!
And happily i am not the only one to be totally lost and confused!!! hihihi!!! i made sure of that by doing a search on google ... even though i am busy preparing 3 exams!!

Anyways, let me know if you understand the ending of that series!!! i would appreciate your input!!! :)

Another weird interview!

This morning, despite my sickness, i went to my interview. I did my job the night before, i located the company with google map. It was very close to my home. So, i decided to take the bus.
I don't know why but the bus was very late ... so late that i couldn't wait for it, so i called a taxi ... then another taxi passed by, so i jumped into it ... i was sorry for the other taxi! Wonder what happened? Did the driver curse me??

The taxi dropped me near the building, and left very fast. I never found the never given to me. So, I called the company. OOOPS, i had the wrong address! When the lady said Chomedey, i thought of the boulevard not the autoroute!!!

So, i had to go home and take the car or call my dad to pick me up ... in the middle of this decision, a friend from HK called me. We talked about my problems!!! I was on the street not knowing where to go!!! hahahaha. Hope he is doing ok, i didn't have time to ask him! Finally i found the company ... i was late by one hour!!! They were waiting for me outside the building!! shame on me!!!
They asked me a lot of questions about the company and the position, which i had no idea! Hope i was vague enough ... hihihihi ...

The conclusion of the story? I don't know Laval, my city! arghhhhhhhh!!

in sickness ...

funny how come i never think of taking medication when i am sick ! i had fever and headaches today ( after my trip to Toronto! ) and i just tried to hide myself in my room ... i just laid on my bed, waiting for the pain to go away!!
when my mom came home, she gave me some food and medication and i felt so much better afterwards!!!
LOVE you MOM!!!!!!
