Last night was our first successful night out on the town in Paris. Last weekend weekend we tried so hard to make it to a disco, but failed miserably. I was so frustrated and tired by the time we got home, all i wanted to do was go to sleep. This friday night was a complete success. We planned our night much better this time and actually had an address to help find the disco. It was very easy to find and it was a lot of fun. I really felt like a young frenchman last night. We went out at 12:00 and didnt get back to the house until 6:00 in the morning. I was so tired tonight, but i had alot of fun and i liked seeing how the french act in the social scene. The night was such a success and we didnt have any drama this weekend. Our day was also busy, and i think thats why i was so tired. We had art class in the morning, and we discussed the Greek and Roman Periods. Then, in the afternoon we went to the louvre museum to go through the corresponding exhibits. The Greek and Roman period was interesting to see the sculptures. It was amazing to see how much detail went into these sculptures. They're so smooth and well developed. I can't believe they could have done these sculptures thousands of years ago with no modern tools. We didnt get to see all of the sculptures, but we did get to see the italian paintings. In this section of the museum, we got to see the Mona Lisa. It wasnt as amazing as people build it up to be. It's very small and you cant get close to it because theres a rope and a big glass case. The other italian paintings were very religious and featured many saints. My favorite part of the museum today was the ceilings in the greek and roman section. They were huge elaborate murals with gold decorative trim that depicted scenes of the the greek gods. Today was a very long and eventful day but it was so much fun.
