Quick Aside To My Father: Guess The Song?
------------------------
So the Aurore situation is in a state of permanant nothingness, it's not great but we are happy when we do have good times and we hang out and have fun together. I am like a permanent moodswing because last time I blogged I was so extremely fachée and now I am all happy and cheery. Perhaps that is because I listened to my iPod while lying down at an upward slant in the empty pool counting all the planes that did not go in the direction of Canada? Or because I have 6 guests coming over to have fun and be fun with me on Saturday? Or because I'm going shopping in my three hour lunch tomorrow with Ceilidh and Kayla? Or because my teachers love me and time is flying and I only have 21 days left of school before I go home to Canada? Or because I'm going to Morocco? Or because I got the highest mark in the class on a French presentation (17/20) ? Anyhow, you get the picture, I am cheery and I have stuff to look forward too!!!!
Hoooboy.......
I have started my "diet" the seefood diet which really is making me quite rotund (joking mumma of course, well a little!!). But that's not really what I want to talk about. I am cheery because of a number of strange things and since I really want to tell someone and everyone thinks I'm strange if I do, I shall say them in this blog because then if you think I'm strange and you say that........nothing much that can be done for another two months!!!! Aaaaah, half done next Thursday!!!
Well, the first cheery Jane moment was last night at soccer when I got my license to play in the game next Saturday (OMG sooooooooooooo excited!!!) and we played in the rain and I played excellente and felt oh so high and mighty, not even coming home to cranky Aurore dampened my spirits. Secondly, I finally orgnaized my bedroom in France and looked through my steadily growing collection of souvenirs. In it, I realized that I have a lot of stuff to decorate (or rather add to the decoration on) my walls and that I keep collecting stuff, like this relatively cheap old posters and movie signs from the 20s and beyond which is going to make my room in canada so impossibly me and the anticipation is making me happy. Thirdly, I am just happy, I have settled into a good night time routine again, I am working on exercising, I am working on being friendly, eating well and doing all my Canadian homework and I am working on all the things I told my good friend in Canada Kay Dyson Tam I would. For instance, I saw and see France as a chance to transform myself into what I truly want to be and I am slowly but surely doing that (away from prying eyes was the goal) and that makes me immensely proud. Fourthly, I just reread my plane letters and my eyes swelled up a little but then I was happy and cheery and laughing again. Fifthly, I have found my groove.........sleeping, soccer, friends, school, Canadian homework, food, exercise. It is falling into place and I cannot even imagine a better moment of realisation. I am happy, the Canadian return things set into place, the anticipation, the Morocco in two weeks, holy moley, and the crazy things that are my everyday life!!! I am wonderful and can honestly say that for the first time, I mean I've been having fun and all but today was an honest to goodness break through and I have faith that I can make the rest just as good and when I fail, which I am bound to, I shall listen to my favourite songs and lean back in my chair and say screw it, I have le soleil and I have music and I have chickens and good food and nobody can take that away from me, atleast not for another six weeks and six days!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Love you all so very much!!!!!
Jane

Just beautiful, Jane.
Although your posts chart a day-to-day progression that has both highs and lows, it is a progression nonetheless. With each new post, no matter your mood, you become a little more thoughtful, a little more introspective, a little more realistic... a little wiser. It is a beautiful thing to witness and, for me, the next best thing to being there with you.
I will await your next post, as always, with keen interest. But now, if you'll excuse me, I have to step away and crank up the Dandys...!
Love always,
STRONGDAD

Hey Janer,
I miss you a ton, and that probably didn't help. I shall challange you to settlers of Catan when you get beack becauser I kick but. Anyhoo, I miss you and I am really glad that your having a great time because I feel sad and cry(in my head) when you are sad. oKAY THE CRYING PART IS NOT TRUE BUT it's the sentiment that counts.

Wow Jane,
I always know that your were a person who thrived on organization and routine, and from this blog entry I see that you have organized your life in France in order to achieve this state, resulting in a happy camper named Jane. Good for you! And, well, to be able to share all that with friends AND le soleil, les poules et la musiqe, you have found your niche girl!!
Wonderful blog entry Jane. Keep it going because it makes me feel like I am there (sans les poules, bien sur).
Love, Granny
