Today was my first day of school in France. So far it is waaaaaaaay easy. But I only had two classes. One, technically since it was the same prof but... they are still two different classes.

I live in the burbs and with class starting at 8, I woke up at 6 to catch the bus at 7. We had class from 8-12 then nothing so we went all over. I didn't buy any clothes today which is a good thing. I did buy a 5 euro crepe though. It was so good.

Anyway, every day is 100 percent better like I said but one thing can bring the whole day down. Today sort of crashed and burned. I am pretty sad now but I know tomorrow is another day and I am not going to die or anything.

Unless I die of a broken heart.

Or a plane crash.

Have fun in the snow, suckahs!

I miss you guys but not the snow and home. Ha ha. The main street in Perpignan has palm trees.

I miss squirrels.

Loves.

We went to Spain yesterday and came back today.

It was fun. We took a train down to Barcelona and stayed in this nice hostel. We went to a Picasso museum and cute little restaurants and stores.

One of the girls got her purse stolen so we had a nice little police station adventure. This guy sitting next to us helped point us in the direction of the police station and Alis had her stuff stolen before so she knew what to do.

Afterwards, everyone wanted to go out and drink all night. I told everyone I was just going to stay in our room at the hostel since I don't drink anyway. Alis let me call call Nick using her phone card and I cried a lot.

So I went back to my room and read Sense and Sensibility and wrote people postcards. Oh and cried for forever.

Every day is 100 percent better but I am only at about 43 percent now. People said that after about three weeks it would be just fine and I am beginning to believe them.

Anyway, tomorrow we will find out what level of courses we tested into and I have a bunch of stories but right now I am travelling tired so au revoir!

I love you all.

So France is getting better. Especially now that my family said Nick can stay with them if he comes to visit.

They seriously are the best host family ever.

I want to go home.

Not that France is bad, it is awesome, but I want Nick. And home. And my family.

And Nick.

Today is my last day in the states until June 3.

Tomorrow (January 24) we meet at the airport at 10:45 am.

Our plane leaves at 12:45 pm. We get into Dallas at 2:35 pm and leave at Kelly's favorite time of day pm. We get into London at 7 am (January 25) and leave at 8:40 am. We arrive in Toulouse (FRANCE!) at 11:30 am.

Pichot said we were going to rent a 10 seat bus and drive all over the place.

I'm excited but not enough.

And I miss you already.

I love you all.

P.S. Pray/hope/think for safe flights. I hate/am afraid of flying.

Well.

I am going to France on Wednesday. In an aeroplane over the sea.

I had a jam packed day today but I can sum it up with just saying that I cried a lot and I already miss people I just saw. Or didn't see because they left for Minnesota and my car is broken so I couldn't see them and they didn't call me like I stalker-ish-ly told them to.

Or something.

I finished all the shopping that I needed to get done.

I just need to finish laundry and finish packing.

Tomorrow we are going out to lunch/dinner for my early birthday/goodbye.

I am almost ready to go.

4 days, 14 hours

P.S. The Office is the best show on earth.

I have never had a phone with a SIM card. How do they work?

I can't find my iPod cord. I'm going to see if my other one will work or just buy a new one tomorrow.

I leave on Wednesday.

I got the cell phone. I don't know the number. It needs charged. It also might need a new battery.

I'm done with work. Tomorrow is last minute chores day. Saturday/Sunday is early birthday celebration day. Monday night is Jane Austin movie marathon night.

I will try to call all of you this weekend. Leave me your e-mail or addresses if you want presents, pictures or fun happy e-mails.

I love you all.
