Not much ado

This morning was pretty uneventful. Hanna and I slept in after being up pretty late... Then Hanna went to her host family's place to pick up her last suitcase. I used the internet from her computer. I didn't have a lot to do, so I cleaned out my inbox. I had EIGHT pages of messages, now I am down to one page! This is a good thing because during the next two months, I will not be able to check my email very often, if at all. Then I watched Frequency on YouTube while I updated my blog. Sounds lame, I know, but I've been walking so much lately, my body just will yell at me if I try it again for too long ;) No joke. While I was watching Frequency, a maid came in. Awkward. She spoke to me in french and I mostly understood so I just let her in. She straightened things up a bit and then cleaned the bathroom. It was a little strange, but nice to have new towels and clean pillowcases.

When Hanna came back with her suitcase, we went to the Ricks. She called her parents and figured out what she needed to do in order to meet up with them. While we went to the metro, I saw a backpack suitcase that might work to take for my next study abroad, but I still wanted to look around, so I went to BHV. I didn't find anything there. Most every suitcase available had to be bought with a set for 100-200 euros. Not gonna happen.

Alors, I went to the Institute and used the internet to update my blog a little bit and also email my mom. Then I went to get a quick dinner with Garret, Kevin, and a girl from the ward named Amanda. Dinner was good. Then we went back to the hotel (not Amanda), and we chilled with Hanna. It was fun. And that's a wrap :)

Day 21 - Class, Louvre, FHE

Class was good today. I had French 102 and Religion. Not bad. After that, I headed to the Louvre with Haley and Chelsea. I didn't bring my SLR with me because it wouldn't fit, so I took my point and shoot. Wow. What a difference. I knew I loved my SLR, but not I really love my SLR! I didn't take any good pictures, but I'll tell you that I did see Charles I Dismounted by Van Dyck. That was pretty exciting. I love to see paintings that I recognize. After we chilled at the Louvre for a while, we headed out (well, we lost Chelsea and found Richard) to the Ricks' place. We were a little early so we went to see the Eiffel Tower. We saw it all lit up. It was pretty awesome. Then off to the Ricks'. We played a charade-type game for FHE and it was a lot of fun. I really enjoyed myself. And I was able to use their super fast internet to update my blog. So it all worked out well and it was a good night! PS Thanks to those of you who have been able to post comments. I reall...

Day 54 - Dernier Jour

Last day in Paris! I can't believe it. I'm sure gonna miss this place. Ali, Shamra, Mckell, Claire and I headed out to the city this morning. First stop was the Opera house. I finally got to see the inside this time! Beautiful. We had some fun :) Then we went to Berko's, the wonderful cheesecake place. It wasn't open and it was 11:35. We thought they wouldn't open until 12 but as we were sitting there waiting, they opened the doors! Yay! I got creme brulee cheesecake. Oh it was divine. This is one of the things I will miss most about Paris! Love it. Then Claire and I went to the Jewish museum. It was pretty interesting. I couldn't take many pictures. Then off to the Promenade Plantee. It was a really beautiful walk. I like this flower. It's weird. Then we walked back to the metro. It was quite a long walk so we were very tired! We went to the Louvre for a little internet time. Afterward, we went to Laudree to get a present for Greg and Martha. Then back to t...
