t-minus three days.

so have i mentioned that i am moving to paris? yes. i am. on WEDNESDAY.

i am moving to paris on wednesday.



after weeks of anxiety, i finally learned where i will be living for the next five months. my french host family has a fifth floor apartment on the avenue de versailles, a bit farther from school than i expected but still in a great little area.

two doors down from my building is the 'restaurant san francisco,' which i find ironic yet strangely comforting. (oh, how i love google maps' street view function!)



so at the moment i'm procrastinating; i've done three loads of laundry and have one more + all the handwashing i need to do, and then it's PACKING TIME. i have two humongous red suitcases (the lightest in the world!) sitting on my bed, positively gaping at me.

time to get things done, i suppose!

introduction

so here is where i will chronicle my upcoming semester in paris. i'll post photos, share anecdotes and fun facts, and keep it PG-13 or something. also my grammar will be impeccable except that i will never use caps because i hate them. they will only appear IN THE EVENT THAT I FEEL THE NEED TO CONVEY THAT I AM IN FACT SHOUTING,


which hopefully will only be out of excitement. i can dream.
