Mother nature is clearly not happy today. In fact she's livid. Though it hasn't rained in Paris for awhile, so I suppose she's making up for it now. But could we chill out with the ridiculously strong wind ( Read more... )

I don’t feel 19 until someone reminds me. Last night, during the celebration of Vanessa’s 21st birthday, we were all discovering birthdays and ages and, lo and behold, to no surprise, I am the youngest by a year and a half. Then today, I went to get a new student ID card (it’s paper and easily annihilated) and I had to provide my birthday to Marie ( Read more... )

So, after enduring a long long long day at school, I went down to Cafe rue Daguerre (at the end of the street on which my school is located) with Erica, Tenly, Vanessa, and Jessica for happy hour. We sat around with some Kronenburg, caught up (since we've all been so busy and haven't seen too much of each other), and had a chill but fun early ( Read more... )

I don't think I've ever been such an active part of my own life and future. I switched from a French major to minor so that I can fulfill all med school requirements by the time I graduate undergrad (I was planning on taking post-grad courses), which will certainly save time and money.

That´s where I am!! And I got to see RENATA!!! It was so good to see this girl. She rocks! Of course, we´re both pretty sick... blah. Poor Monica is all about going out and checking out the night life of Madrid and Renata and I want to crawl into a hole. Amanda, some of those magic African drugs would be great right about now...!

Unfortunately, that trip to the Alps won't be happening. I was all excited because I found someone to go with me (my friend Anne) and I saw the Alps on the flight from Rome to Paris... ABSOLUTELY GORGEOUS!!! And I could probably afford to go, but Anne doesn't have enough money. Bummer. But that means I won't be dirt broke when I get back to the ( Read more... )

Well here goes...!

I already detailed the Ryan Air drama. So, I got up around 930 on Friday, not quite certain what I was going to do. I walked outside to find that it was cold and dreary. So I decided to head over to Vatican City since I would be mostly in doors. Thus began my adventures around Rome. I ventured boldly to the INSANE metro. Asked ( Read more... )

I am having the most incredible time!!! Rome is fabulous and I've met some very cool people! Met a girl from Montreal the first day and I've hung out with her a lot and spoke lots of French! She's in Paris now visiting her boyfriend for 2 weeks, so I'll get to hang out with her again ( Read more... )
