Look at how cute this is. First of all the Eiffel tower in the background of the girl with roller skates on is priceless. I want to go there and do that. and the second image with the little old lady staring at the foxy vixen (who needs to eat a baguette avec poulet crudites maintenant)

its classic.

a piu tarde

porquoi

so i realize that i'm no longer in paris *tear* and that I specifically made this blogtocater to my parisian/european adverntures. but i'm deciding to keep it and write in it when I miss parisian/european things. or when i'm remembering good times in europe (that i didnt write about) seeing that there are a lot of things that happened that I never wrote about, I'm expecting many more posts.

anyways. i miss paris. I think americans are just... eh. not too special and WAY TO NEGATIVE.. why why so negative people. parisians were just all floaty and sexy and had cool accents and ate nutella and had baguettes. and just chilled. why are americans so uptight and dirty. ew. i cant wait to go back.

paris je t'aime.
