bluaaaaaahhhh

apparently thats how i feel right now.

so.... lately:

-jenn came to visit, we (JHR) went to a little awesome italian restraunt monday night and had a really long relaxing dinner, like 3.5 hours or something. but it was way cool. and then yesterday we.... went shopping downtown a little and bought my cat a new carrier for his trip home. she left for LA this morning.
- i've skipped more french than i care to think about. Mostly just from other constraints on my time and stuff, like today i worked in the coffee stand instead of going to french... but it was the day after a test, so i figured it was ok. (i've "figured" all my absences are "ok" but i still feel bad in a cumulative sort of sense.) But apparently i did really well on my oral presentation, because i got a 98/100. i got a 95 on the first one, so yay for improvement.
- i alternate between feeling okay and not stressed out and feeling crazy because i have SO much to do before i can go home in TEN DAYS. FUCK. now is a stressed time.
- i'm in a jazz history class with only 8 people, and 2 teachers. its really fun. but i wish i had more time to invest in it and the reading/listening, etc. but we (RJy) to Tulas sunday night and heard a jazz band (i had to write a paper on a concert), which was fun.
- and Don, my ex-trombone teacher and current jazz teacher, is moving to denmark in 2 weeks- which means he'll totally be there and doing concerts while i'm in Paris. So we're gonna meet up or something, which is cool.
- i finally got my living assignment for paris ! yay! i'm going to live in this building:



which is here:



So thats all very exciting. And i'm going to be living with a family, i haven't called them yet. And another girl who's a freshman who likes to snowboard, etc... but she's been in paris all summer with another program... so i'm not sure what to think about all that yet.

aaaaaaand. tonight is project runway! yay! and i've frozen some koolaid for myself, so i'm so looking forward to that. yay for frozen super kool-aid!

bye everyone. i'll write again when i get back to alaska and have time to think.
