After dinner, I took a different direction for the walk. Passing the railway overhead, I arrived at Levallois, a commune next to Clichy. There is a supermarket here called E Clerec, much cheaper than Casino market, but the interior is not that inviting.

吃完晚餐後，我試著走不同的路。穿過頭上的鐵軌，我走到Clichy旁邊的小鎮Levallois。這裡有間超市叫做ELeclerc，比Casino超市要便宜許多，但裡面裝璜並不是那麼美。

With no metro card, I persisted on saving my money by going nowhere on Saturday. I spent the whole morning sitting in the park writing and reading, luckily the sun was pleasant so it was not too cold even it was no more than 20 degree. In the afternoon, I passed the Pont de Clichy and did a jogging along the Seine. The view is marvelous. I stopped by a graveyard for dogs, and le Parc du Robinson, the latter is a riverside parck providing work-out equippments. I ran and walk all the way to la Defense, it took 2 hours to go there and get back.

因為沒有捷運卡，為了省錢我堅持什麼地方也不去。整個早上我在公園裡寫文章看書，太陽很舒服，不熱也不冷，即使氣溫不到二十度。下午出門，穿過Clichy橋，沿著塞納河慢跑，景致十分優美。經過一個專為狗而設的墓園，在羅賓森河濱公園待了一會，裡面有很多戶外健身設備。之後我就一路走到拉德方斯，來回總共花兩個小時。

I went to Hillsong Paris this morning. The worship was cheering, but I didn't have much chance to talk to other people. After that I went to many places with Navigo. On Sunday most of the shops are closed so I have no choice but to have a 6.95 euro hamburger set in a fastfood chain. I also stayed in La Defense for near a whole day becasue it was the only few shoping complex that open on Sunday.

今天早上去巴黎的Hillsong教會。敬拜讚美十分鼓舞人心，但是可惜的是，我沒有機會跟其他人交流。作完禮拜之後，我拿著Navigo卡到處走，星期天大部分的店都關了，最後因為實在太餓，就到一家叫做Q的漢堡店吃午餐。我在拉德方斯待了一整個下午，這一區是少數星期天也有營業的。

The first day in Science Po was not bad, but not worth the 260 euro. The principal did a brief introduction of the history of the school and other departments and student associations also. After the class, I took a walk to Musee d'Orsay, le Opera and then took the train back to Clichy. To my amazement, there are many Japanese staff in Uniqlo and Bookoff in Paris, and they speak Japanese! It is clear that the influence of Japanese culture is really strong here.

Day two of Science Po Welcome It was a super long day. I started my "art of public speaking" class from 9h00. During 1h to 3h15, I went to the administrative office asking for student card and BNP for my bank account, but only for the information. I couldn't do anything until tomorrow. The afternoon sessions were composed of 2 hours of French class and 2 hours of methodology class. According to Yichun and also the teacher, the welcome program used to be several weeks, and the price was the same. However, the contents were quite good and my classmates are very intelligent and fluent in French (mostly European and Australian), so under the peer pressure, I should work harder to catch up with them.
