Hello friends! I have finally gotten to that point in my trip where I am looking back and wondering what in the heck I have been doing with my time here! Carpe diem and seize the day and all that, I hope and think that's what I have been doing. For one thing, I have to remind myself that just because I am in a foreign country doesn't automatically make it a vacation. I've had to work as well, to pay those annoying bills, and after working, one must rest! So, besides that, what have I been up to? Let's recap:
Last week:
Saw Happiness Therapy on Friday (lovely movie.)
Saw Life of Pi with Mia on Saturday at Les Halles (amazing and quite touching movie) which was followed by a short spot of shopping joined by Raven.
FINALLY saw Django on Sunday with Raven (LOVED IT!!!) as well as talked about details of a trip to Rome with some other girls (details of which I managed to screw up. Whoops! This now has me quite anxious >.<)
Week Before:
Went to a Salon des Masters with Goretti and picked up info about grad school programs here in France. It was quite overwhelming though. Think I'll stick to working on my degree in English when I get back home. Need to get experience volunteering/working in a social work field first though.
Saw Pas Très Normales Activités (Great movie!) with Lisa and Jaslina. (Painted their nails too! Finally bought new nail polish after weeks of saying I would!)
In January:
Started a new babysitting job (whoo whoo extra spending money!) with a très sympa family.
Visited the Museum of Eroticism (freakiness exists throughout history!).
Saw Paulette (Movie with a great plot!).
Went to an Italian restaurant (MUST return there before I leave! Down with lactose intolerance!)
Discovered cheesecake at Factory & Co. at Bercy Village with Wren when we saw Foxfire (a failure of a movie.)
The snowy weekend ruined plans to see Django/eat cheesecake.
But yeah, so those things happened. As well as life. Making the best of it to enjoy all my time here!
