Counterfeit Bills and Burlesque Girls July 15th
So today started on the right note given that I slept until like 11am! With that out of the way Caroline and I opted to go to the boulangerie and Franprix, we ate lunch in the park and had some ham and cheese sandwiches from the boulangerie. They had sundries tomatoes that I was skeptical of but turned out to be very tasty. I also had some little cheesy crackers from Franprix that were buttery and delicious-not cheesy as promised but the copious butter made me forgive them. 9/10 for being buttery. The sandwich gets a solid 7/10 for being a little more than I bargained for but still coming through. However, I do appreciate the simple things in life like sandwich that is cheese, ham, and a good thick layer of butter. After this adventure we did some homework before heading to the shops surrounding Chatelet. We went to the Zara outside Châtelet where I got a gorgeous bag, a cute top, and most importantly broke my 500 euro note!!!!! Finally! So Caroline and I purchased our stuff together ignored to break the bill more easily and when I got up to the register I asked if they'd be able to do it, the guy at the register next to mine said he could and I went there. Then the process started...he ran the bill through the counterfeit bill finder two times. Next, he rubbed the bill with a receipt and finally went and took it over to his security guard friend where they eyeballed it together in the light. I knew that bill was real but even I was concerned at this point. As my dad later told me I guess these bills have been dubbed Bin Laden bills as they're often counterfeit as well as used by terrorists. So it was probably really sketchy when I tried to buy a track phone with one. So we headed home after quick stop at the pharmacy for my project research and we soon got ourselves ready to head out to the cabaret for the evening. To eat before our night out I tried the chicken and cheese crepe from crepe man that is a fan favorite amongst the girls. First of all, I had the tea everyone has raved out and it's just chai the way my Nana makes it, black tea steeped with cardamon. So, the crepe was really good! I opted for spices but said no to onions, yet, it felt like I was getting bites of onion? No complaints there but it is odd. I would give it a solid 8.5/10 for being convenient and cheap as well as good! I will definitely be frequenting that in the future when in need of a quick bite. We got lost on the way to the Cabaret but thankfully we found it in a boat along the Seine. We got drinks waiting to go down into the theatre and once we did the show started I loved it! It was super fun, and sexy while still being very tasteful! Future me: look at the pictures Tori put on Facebook! We then headed back to the OG Shywawa's where the bartender recognized us and chatted with us as we got a drink and plotted our next move. Which was the club for me and Tori and Caroline. We decided we wanted to try something new and went to Hobo rather than Queen and gosh that was a mistake. Hobo was like every poser, Yeezy, Chanel Boy bag, everything you can imagine. We are also very convinced that people in there were doing molly or ectascy because they had boxes of suckers to take at the bathroom door...sketchy. However, we had paid a high cover so we kind of tried to make the best of it before we had to throw in the towel and get an Uber home. We also all fell asleep during different points of the Uber ride. Thankfully we got home safely and I forced her to go get water with me.
