I am finally getting into my apartment and out of this hotel. I don't think I have mentioned it yet, but we were treated so poorly here that I cannot wait to get out. It's over now though and I moved all of my stuff over to apartment and will join my things tonight after I finish up with the internet here at this stupid hotel. But today at school was waaayyy better then the first day, so I don't feel quite so overwhelmed with my class. Not to say that I am not overwhelmed anymore, but it's not so bad. I love france and their slower way of live, but sometimes I feel like I'm walking on eggshells around everyone and I can't fully be me. I'm sure nothing traumatic will happen if I act American but im trying to assimilate to the french everything and it's not the easiest thing in the world. BUT I'm moved in and getting into my place and day by day, even if i don't notice it, I'm becoming more like the French.
On a lighter note, today I went to the market and bought beautiful flowers for only 3 euro for the woman who helps us with everything, she makes everything sooo much easier, so we got her some thank you flowers. :) after that we got a slice of pizza for lunch and went back to class...today we had class for 4 hours, and then 2 more hours. It was kindof a long day but it still doesn't seem as bad school and working like at home. We then did the walkthrough for our apartment and moved all of our stuff accross town. Well not across town but it was still about 100lbs of stuff for about 5 blocks, and up stairs to the 3rd 1/2 floor. It was so heavy but we got it all up there all by ourselves and felt very proud! lol. I got homework that is due tomorrow though so i must go attempt that for now. A bientot!
