Independance Day

Today is the Independence Day in the USA. But unfortunately there was no parade near Grand Prairie and the weather was so awful that we didn't see anything. Basically, a fireworks was planned around 9pm but with the rain, it's not really interesting to stay outdoor, looking the sky. I hope we'll see a part of this fireworks from the apartment, but that's not sure...

Today, to spend the time, I read all the afternoon. That was the first time I read so long for two years. I was really happy ! It's a novel written by Douglas Kennedy and named La poursuite du Bonheur, offered by Raphaëlle at my 19th birthday... I began it three times until chapter 4 (I began at the 1st page each time because I didn't remember what was the story about) but I never had the time to continue. Today I arrived to the page 497 (on a total of 774). It's a really captivating story if you enjoy melodramatic books ! I advice you to read it !

Tomorrow, I will go back to work... I expect the weather will be sunnier...

hey, have you reached the point where words come more easily in English? So cool! Let us know when you start dreaming in English, that`s really awkward...

It did take you some time to read that book! I`m glad you finally found the time!

Is it obvious it took me like 20 minutes to drop this comment because of my japanese keyboard? ~_~

Eh si, comme quoi tout peut arriver... ce que je n'ai pas mentionné, c'est le nombre d'heures passées pour l'écrire ! ;-)

Mais il me reste du boulot avant d'atteindre le niveau de aelle...
