“Je vais te tuer ma fille parce que tu nous pourris la vie= I will kill you, my daughter, because you made my life like hell”. It was a horrible article in “Lemonde” about the reality of a bad adoption. This article is an illustration of a sad situation where the kid didn’t like his/her life. The […]

This new method of payment allows me to pay my purchases that are below 20 euros without scanning my card and entering a code. I tried it three times but it did not work and finally someone told me that I needed to hold my card in front of the detector until the 4 lights turn “blue”. […]

I was a bit surprised to see my bank account debited twice by the tax collector. Luckily, they immediately reimbursed the excess. The whole confusion was my fault.

My legs are now hard as steel: 30 kms / week! I tried not to push too much and I kept a regular rhythm. After I ran up the stairs, an old woman who did the same said that it was “beautiful” to be young, I made her laugh when I told her that the climb did hurt […]

I ran 3 times 10 kms last week. My body is a bit sore. The trees are blossoming and it is nice to see the new green leaves and the flowers. I was shocked when I came to help Malika with her administrative paperwork after her minor surgery. She wanted to make copies of her […]

I learned a new word while reading the plot of this movie: The Lobster. “Dystopian” is the opposite of “Utopia”: something that is undesirable or frightening. After further reading, I finally understood the meaning of this movie. I needed to accept the logic of the movie: “undesirable or frightening”. There is nothing such as happiness in a dystopian society. The […]

The lyric means something else than the refreshing effect it creas when you listen to this tune: I took a pill in Ibiza by Mike Posner Chorus: But you don’t wanna be high like me Never really knowing why like me You don’t ever wanna step off that roller coaster and be all alone …… […]

Too much food wasted! I tried to empty the fridge meaning throwing leftovers away. I cannot eat twice food that I ate. That is a very bad habit of mine. It is so much cheaper to buy enormous portion of food that I will never eat :(.

Since the story about the “arranged” wedding, I noticed that there were at least 3 “arranged” weddings in the building and 3 “recomposed” families (kids from previous marriages). The kids are quite normal besides the “fat” kid. Compared to the two brothers who came politely asking for help with their broken computer, I do not like much […]
