10 things that Paris has taught me so far...

1. I love and miss more than anything else free, unlimited, refill-it-as-soon-as-you're-done-drinking-it-so-you-have-to-go-to-the-bathroom-a-lot, ice, cold water in restaurants.

2. I can't pronounce r in french. 

3. The song, Aux Champs-Elysées, never ever leaves my head.  It is perpetually stuck.

4. The 3 most important ingredients in French cuisine are butter, butter, and butter.

5. French teenagers create slang words (l'argot) by switching syllables.  Par example: métro = tromé.

6. There are more buckeye trees on my street than in all of Ohio. And they hurt when they fall on your head. 

7. Hand-held showers = wet bathroom floors.

8. French restaurants only play songs in english.

9. I still don't like cheese (and Dad, you would be proud to know that I tried all of them at our cheese and wine party last week. Blah.) Yesterday, I met a Parisian who doesn't like cheese either.

10. You should never have to switch more than 2 times on the Métro to get to your stop. Subway, you should take some pointers from the Métro...
