hey guys!!!
it's been snowing a lot today! here is a picture of the all-white-by-the-snow new york, when i went out of my hotel this afternoon! and it hasn't stopped all afternoon! so when I said on my french blog that new york is a too big and warm city for the snow to stay i guess i was wrong. but unfortunately it's not snowing anymore now and they say it's gonna be raining tomorrow :( but that made me really feel happy.
i was out yesterday with caitlen, a resident here at the hotel, and it was so cold! like -10˚c!!! we went to that bar 10 minutes walk from here and we had a good time. lots of pop corn, lots of vodka and coke as usual and even one round offered by the (very cute) bartender. caitlen told me she got this double room on the 4th floor with tv for the same price as my tiny single room with no socket! she's so nice, she even said she would talk to the guys at the reception for me!
i had a trial today in a wine bar. trial here means 6 hours unpaid, times 2. i'm also working on thursday from 6 and i can't even get my share of the tips, because it's only a training! they expect you to know your wines well, and there are about 60 different sorts!!!! and if i get the job, that means they're gonna fire someone!!! nice way to get respect from your colleagues! lol but i kinda made friends with that spanish guy who might have a room for me, for cheap, but it's in harlem... we'll see!
i'm gonna say something i have said on my french blog already (sorry for those who read both on here.) you know about americans being being fatter than the rest of the world usually (they say it so themselves, i'm not just being mean!) but it's actually the case for lots of things. for example, i went to mcdonald's and a medium meal had bigger fries than a large meal in europe, the drinks are huge too, and they don't know any meal called "cheeseburger meal", they only have the "2 cheeseburgers meal" (and it's the cheaper deal)!!! and their special burgers are not quarter pounders or half pounders but... pounders!!! same for the huge pizza we had last weekend (i posted a picture in the last post, even if it doesn't look that big on the photo) same for a cheese and bacon bagel i had, they cut it in too and put 4 slices of cheese on each half!!! that was too much! but there's something i like in mcdonald's though: they have dr pepper as a drink!!!!!!
i'll finish with a little thing for fatime and for those who don't have a google account and who have tried to post comments: now everyone is able to do it. just click on where it says how many comments have been posted underneath and choose to post with a nickname that you enter. and i will reply to every post! come on you have no excuse now!
love you guys, take care and don't do anything i wouldn't do! (that leaves a marge!)

Oki do...je vien de faire un essaie et c bon... ca marche. I was pissed of as I tried to write three times in your blog but....computer said NO. To be able to write a comments I need to be sign in as anonymous. I am happy that you got new friends with who u can talk just about your five not-so-famous mothers (thanks God!!!)
Dont come back here weighting 200pounds so one little advice..say that you are on diet and eat just a quarter of what they eat. Its funny bcs my friends from america told me yesterday that if you wanna eat a burger, you should ask for a small size(that mean jsut 2 steak) bcs if you ask for a large one, they might put 7 steaks on it.
Anyway; how is your sex life lol?? did you get a Valentine present?? I didnt even if Iam seeing a Hungarian guy (il est radin). How come you lost your camera?? Its a shame bcs I would love to see more pics. In 2 weeks time I ll get free calls to the US so if you have a landline send it to me.. I have to leave you for now. I hope that your trainning will go well. Try to be wisely selfish. bisous
