I think I'll refrain from taking French next semester. While I want to learn the language, and I enjoy taking the class (other than its time) I really don't think a six unit French course is doing me any favors right now. I'm a fourth year trying to finish my degree abroad. I've really got to focus on my writing courses. I can't give both chunks of my schedule enough time for the attention they deserve. If I do decide on staying for summer I will take a cheap french course at a language school and get a simple job (can't get anything that will involve me speaking with customers since I've no real French experience).
Picture I took today of my street - loving the yellows, reds, and oranges! Today it snowed. Just a little, to the point where you'd hardly notice, but enough to make me giggle and jump around like a little kid. While I'm not ready for snow it was really great being outside to witness the first little bits of the season.
I get a kick out of bundling up and accessorizing - something I could have done back home but never found that appealing. Apparently I really like hats and can't have enough. Still don't have a winter coat, but I suppose I should get one soon since winter seems to be coming early this year. I do, however, have long johns and warm socks now - and I'm wearing them right now.
Thanksgiving weekend was lovely. I mean, I really enjoyed spending time with my roommates and a few friends that I'd invited over. Lots of good food and a fun time.
Pictures to come soon.
OOOOh dear. I should be sleeping - it is 3:29 here. In the am. French quiz in 5 hours. I get test anxiety! I can't help it.
I like the yellow sign accross the street in the picture you just posted. I think it means "road kill 30 meters ahead"
