Catastrophe

School
Yesterday we had school from 8:30 am to 6:30 pm. It was so draining! But thank god the French have an hour and a half lunch or I would have died. After class, Marina came home with me because she wanted to borrow a few things. However, when we were walking home, there was a bike race or something that blocked off a giant part of my walk home. It took us about 20 minutes to get around it. All the roads were closed and people were covering the sidewalk taking pictures. It was crazy. Since we didn't get back until 8:00 pm, Marina just stayed with me for dinner.

Going Out

So Johanna was asking why I never go out and my American friends (mainly Lauren) are always asking me to come out. So last night I tried and it was a disaster. We met an American student, named David, working on his PhD and we invited him out with us. He had to leave early for a flight at 6 am but he came with us anyways.

This story could really drag on so I'll make an extremely long story short. There was about 20 of us, we got lost and didn't get a drink until 12:30. We were walking around aimlessly passing numerous bars. It was ridiculous. David had to leave before we even had a drink. We couldn't tell him directions back to the train because we were lost. Then somewhere along the way, I lost my umbrella I hadn't even used yet... It was an absolute disaster and I will never be going out with such a large group ever again.

Stupid American Students...
