Week Update

Okay, I know I haven't been blogging much, and I've learned some people actually read this *gasp*!  Just blogging to say that I'm doing well and stuff.  School has been difficult, mainly because I don't understand the (French speaking) teachers and don't understand the work (eg. math, science).  But, the good thing is that they took away a lot of courses that I would have a very hard time with (eg. other languages).  I don't really have any new pictures on my computer (though we did go to a very old castle that was cool, and I did take pictures but their on my camera).  So heres a wonderfully foggy picture of the Eiffel Tower.  (We are going to Paris again today with the school so I only have 1 hour of school)

Art/History Museum in Paris

As you may know, I was back from Skiing on Monday.  Yesterday we went to two museums in Paris.  The first one, which I forget the name of (sorry!), is a big museum with different objects from history.  There were two parts in it that I really liked, the first was video game history (with popular game consoles from the past), and the second was the communications history (with objects such as phones, typewriters, computers, cameras, etc from the past).

The second museum was really big and is called the Centre Pompidou.  It is an art museum with pieces of art from famous artists.  Some of the art was pretty cool, but the one thing that makes me love art is how other people actually appreciate it.  And I mean that in a good way.  For example, there was one piece of art that was completely blue.  That was it.  Just blue paint on a canvas.  And someone was taking a picture of it!  Funny to some, but to me it means that people are open to all different forms of art and artists.

Anyway here's pictures of the museums that I took. (click to view large)
