Musings of a French student through the years

This week...

Okay, so I was able to get in touch with people on Sunday.....so that was great. And then Monday I used the internet at Krystal's house (whom I have come to adore). And, Tuesday we got internet! HOORAY!

Let's see...a brief recap of this week's events because I am EXHAUSTED and have to get up early tomorrow. Monday we had administrative stuff all day and Krystal and I had steak-frites for lunch (mmmmmmm). Tuesday I spent all day at my school in Ballan-Mire (accent aigu on that last e). It was stressful, terrifying, etc. Wednesday we had administrative stuff this morning and I've spent the rest of the day in the apartment calling people/hoping people would get online/making a really awesome dinner/napping/etc. Tomorrow I'm visiting my other school that's quite close by for the first time...we'll see how that goes. Afterwards, if I have it in me, I'm going to walk 45 minutes to a cheap appliance shop next to the other river to try to buy a phone for our house.... we'll see. If the morning's not to stressful/exhausting I'd really like to, but if it goes like it does at Ballan...then...we'll see.

I apologize for the delay, but there ARE pictures up on facebook. For people who want to stalk where I live my address is as follows:

11/13 Rue Victor Laloux
37000 Tours, France

Other than that..... roommates are good, food is good, apartment is good, work is STRESSFUL, french is still crappy, really starting to miss certain people (it might be a long weekend).

Oh, and after that horrible day on Tuesday we went to the bar across the street and did shots/made friends with the barman. :)

Still wondering if I am getting paid by BMW on Friday (DID I fill out that timecard?)...if so... I am buying a 3 plug adapter for my computer........running out of battery....... you know.

Always,
Amanda
