Things at Present

So I’ve now been in France for 17 days. Things are present are going well. I have a French grammar review class for 3 hours every weekday until university classes start. My host mother is visiting her son in the United States for 10 days. Therefore I am alone in the apartment with the cat. I pretty much do my own thing with someone else’s stuff. My only concern is that, upon her return, my style won’t be compatible with hers.

I met some authentic French people the other day. Laugh at my word choice, but it can be really hard to meet French people. The only people whom I’ve easily met are shady guys who come up to you on the street because they want to meet rich Americans. Will somebody tell the world that all Americans are not rich! I digress. Anyway, I met Latifa and Delphine at a university cafeteria by chance. While standing in line, some friends and I asked the girls behind us the meaning of a word on the lunch menu. We started talking and had lunch together. Afterwards Sarah (a girl from IES) and I went shopping with them. I went to the Louvre today with Latifa and some others. Good times.

On other news, I tried rabbit today. I liked it although the taste was a little strong. I still have reservations about eating horse. Give me rabbit any day.

Until next time.
