"Be Our Guest" Part 3

Mont Saint-Michel was amazing!

"Be Our Guest" Part 3

Ladies and Gentlemen, today I shall be talking about my trip to Mont Saint-Michel, an island in Normandy. I have to tell you. Everywhere I went, my family and I were always surrounded by people. Tons of people. It's normal since we did go around tourist season and a lot of people were just wanting to visit the places and historical structures. Regardless of all of that, the sightseeing part was amazing and I loved every since minute of it. (P.S. I realized my formatting was a little weird when viewed on the mobile version Odyssey so I have changed it so you are able to view on your mobile devices.)

On the way to the island of Mont Saint-Michel, we could see the castle from afar and decided to stop at the side of the road (lol I know) and take some scenic pictures.

That day, it was very windy and sunny that day. The wind was blowing so hard that my hair was just going wild and I didn't have a hair tie to secure together. #longhairproblems

And my grandma trying to look derby-ish.

After all those pictures, we got back into the car and started driving towards the castle parking, where we were met by a ton of people touring the island as well.


Inside the walls, it was super crowded (as you can see from the above picture but that was only the outside). As we got past the walls, the walkway was filled. You couldn't even take a single "touristy" picture because the place was so crowded. We walked up the stairs to where we could view the scenery from the castle.

Other that the view from the above picture, there wasn't much to see because everything cost money, such as dining and lounging and also a merchandise store, where I bought a postcard while I was there. From sight-seeing the entire place, it was pretty exhausting and fun all at the same time. But as the day went by, it was time to say goodbye. And soon we were far away from the castle.

And as we got further away from the beautiful place, we took some pictures to say our goodbyes.

And we got very far to a super-market that my granduncle couldn't help but want a picture of. (LOL)

And this marks the end of my wonderful to Mont Saint-Michel. Stay tune for next week of my last few days in France and a tiny little trip to Belgium and England! :)

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
