I slept until 2 pm today, but I don’t know if my host family noticed this fact. You see, they went to the marché [...] because apparently knocking on my door did not wake me from my slumber. I felt kind of bad about that, but it didn’t seem like a big deal to them. I hope they are just writing this one off as the delayed effects of jet lag or something.
I played darts with [my host brother] again today (I did yesterday too). The dart playing one is my nine-year old brother and he is very cute and funny. [...] I like all my family, but I think they want me to talk more and stuff. I solemnly swear that I am going to talk lots at dinner. I’m surprised that they haven’t brought up politics yet, apparently a lot of other SYAers families brought it up on the very first day.
I think we’re supposed to figure out the bus route to school, today. I also need to buy a cell phone, which I think we also might be doing today. “Think” being the key word.
I miss my other SYAers.

Hi Rayla,I found your blog when I was searching for past student blogs for SYA France. I don't know if you are still connected to your blog, but I thought I'd give it a shot. You see my daughter just left for France last night and arrived in Rennes probably an hour ago. I really enjoyed reading your comments. You are really funny and quite the writer!!! I'd love to know, if you don't mind sharing, what your best time was and your most challenging time while with SYA. My daughter is very independent and her father and I are very happy that she is going to get to experience living in a foreign country. I'd love to know your thoughts looking back on the trip. And I was wondering if you would be interested, or had time, to e-mail her to share anything that would be beneficial with her group? Good luck to you for your senior year and college too. I know SYA France will be missing you as you seem like personality plus! Warmst regards, Ann
