Journée de Star Wars

A long time ago in my apartment far far away, I was getting to know more about my roommates (Valentin and Eimear) and it blew my mind that they had never seen any of the Star Wars films. The rest of the gang at rue Ferrandiere hadn’t seen them either, or at least not any of the first ones. I took it upon myself to change that and introduce them all to Luke, Han and Leia during a Star Wars Day Marathon in my new apartment. It took place months later, and sadly Eimear wasn't there. Once Jeremy showed up in his Darth Vader helmet it was on! We started a bit late on a Sunday afternoon so we only got through A New Hope and The Empire Strikes Back. But as an old Jedi master would say “much progress we have made!”They seemed to enjoy the films and look forward to watching the four others….eventually. The plan was to get pizzas between films but since no one delivers to my neighborhood (only downfall of my awesome new apartment) we went downstairs and picked up Subway to refuel us for the second film. It was a success! Fun was had by all. Next step... show the French what Thanksgiving is like.

What a great web log. I spend hours on the net reading blogs, about tons of various subjects. I have to first of all give praise to whoever created your theme and second of all to you for writing what i can only describe as an fabulous article. I honestly believe there is a skill to writing articles that only very few posses and honestly you got it. The combining of demonstrative and upper-class content is by all odds super rare with the astronomic amount of blogs on the cyberspace.
