Au revoir mis gentes! Allo France!

9/7/2012 Today, I set sail (fly) for that far away land (France) that I fell in love with a few years ago (in 2010). I knew I wanted to go back when I returned from France last year. I knew I wanted to be a Teaching Assistant from the first day I heard of this program (TAPIF.org) back in 2008 when I was still a young college freshman. I'm now older (and wiser) and I'm heading off to France, and it's not a dream. O.O I shall miss my people (mis gentes) but of course, I shan't be gone long. My fellow Americans, it has been a pleasure sharing la vida de Nueva York with you all. 9/8/2012 I have arrived! Here is my contact info: I can be called at 06 60 16 90 54 if you are in Europe or 33 6 60 16 90 54 if you are in America. Once I have regular internet access in the apartment where I'm living I can stop feeling so maladroit with this French keyboard, lol. On Monday I interview with a babysitting company, and next week I will see to opening my compte bancaire and getting a regular mobile plan. My plane ride fascinated me of course, my love of airplanes is no secret! However, I'm feeling almost half deaf at the moment as my right ear has yet to pop from the air pressure. My ears hurt a great deal on our descent into France, that's never happened to me before, and I'm sincerely hoping that it's nothing serious. My English already feels different because I'm trying to think in French, so I have no doubt that it will sound a bit weird to my readers for which I apologize in advance. I have been having a completely lovely time thus far, everyone has been quite friendly. Hopefully in about a month my brain will be more French because I feel a bit like I have trouble understanding simple things right now. P.S. I haven't eaten any croissants yet!!!
