Two Guests, One Couch Bed, and Five Days.

Hahaha the funniest thing happened; my French roommate, and her friend who lives in the apartment across the hall, just came in with two guy friends, who will be staying here for 5 days. My other roomie is out (at a random concert thing) and I'm getting ready to go out myself, to my friend's for an overnight stay somewhere by campus, and I hear the front doors open and alors, a flood of francais. I go out to meet them in the semi-dark hallway (god, our apartment STILL needs those 2 missing lamps!!) and so my roomie introduces them to me, and the first thing one guy says to me is, "Bonjour", and I say it too, and then he leans down (very tall guy) towards me, the same time I hear my roomie say "No, no!" frantic-like, immediately halting him from kissing me on the cheek as greeting. I was like, "No, haha it's okay"- I'm guessing she thought I'd be confused/freaked out about what he was doing, but when she freaked it all sort of froze and I was thinking "Oh (insert roomie's name)..! You just made it awkwaaaaaaaaard." Since his lean-down motion ground to a halt mere centimeters away from me. Then we ended up hugging (awkwardly) in greeting instead, lol. It was hilarious though!! I mean, my mind was going, "Oh. He's going to kiss me," when he leaned down. LOL! Oh my, I'd better get going!

  2. lol, authentic french guy? I'm just still cracking up at the expression on my roomie's face and her frantic protest. the horror. It wasn't freaky or anything to me at all, 'cause I knew that's how it is in Europe, but mannn, after he had to pause a bare centimeters away upon hearing my roomie, aaaaaaawkwaaaaaaardddd.
