The Gryfffindor Fountain

Well here in Paris People tend to go out ALOT!  From Thursday to Saturday your are out Partying... Which actually isn't such a bad thing, like you would think...I think this is half because of the drinking age being so low that it really makes going out not as crazy.  Normally i can't keep up with everyone's agendas so i normally go out for people's birthday... but honestly i am just sleepy and pooped by 12 and i have no idea how people stay up all night...i'm afraid i'm turning into an old grany already and i'm not even 21 yet!?!  But the other night, my building went out to this club which gets you in free if you get there before 12 and your a foreigner... and unfortunately we didn't get there before 12 and of course, we didn't want to pay the 20 euros to get in so we left...but by this time it's almost 12:45 which is when the metro shuts down, and i'm getting sleepy.  So me and another guy decide instead of trying to find another place, we are just going to head back and crash...So we get off at the nearest metro stop to our house and start walking because we both didn't want to pay for a taxi... But we still have no idea where we are so we are just looking at maps trying to figure it all out... So we start off in one direction and hit the next metro stop and realize we are walking in the wrong direction...then we go back to where we started and by now i'm just having fun... so there happens to be a big fountain and i really want to go in the fountain...you know like all the movies, i just think it would be so much fun...so i convince this boy to go, first in the middle of this structure which is like surrounded by statues that look like the Gryffindor symbol from harry potter....and then into the freezing cold water, meaning HeadUnder...Go Big or Go Home...And we did both...and it was such an experience...Half because we did it, and i was so afraid of getting caught by the police, but we also still had no idea how to get home and now we are soaking wet and freezing. But eventually we figure out the right direction and all this is now just an amazing memory!
