Day four- Roclincourt

Today Vi and I both slept in pretty late again. I think I was ready for the day around noon, and Vi around 12:30. At 3 we went into town and stood around outside the high school where I found Sabrina and her sisters. I didn't tell Sabrina I was coming back to France, so when she saw me walking toward her, she stared at me for a moment, and you could see the realization spread across her face as I came closer. She ran up to me screaming and threw her arms around me and we hugged for a long time. Then each of her sisters followed suit. We talked for quite some time. Then we saw my French teacher, Mme Dejaghere and I talked to her for a bit. She was also surprised to see me. Sabrina took me to see Wendie in front of the train station, where she was talking with a friend. Wendie had about the same reaction as Sabrina. I had told her I was coming, but i never updated her on the exact dates. After some time, we went back to the school where Sabrina met up with Camille and Camille's girlfriend. I got kind of sick of hanging out with those two, so Vi and I went into town. But just as we got to the post office on the other side of the school, Annick joined us and took us to the Petite Place for a drink. Vi and I both ordered a glass of Orangina. Then we browsed a few stores, including my favorites: Promod and Miss Coquine. We walked to Annick's house and relaxed in her garden and enjoyed an 'apperatif' as we waited for Francoise, Veera, and Mafa to finish shopping for the party tomorrow. We talked and reminisced, and then Annick made me call my mom. I talked with her for a few minutes and then went back into the yard with Vi. When my host mom showed up with the girls, we went back home and had dinner (pizza!). Then we watered plants and went up to bed! Now I'm just on facebook, trying to catch mick before i get to sleep.
a demain!
