My soul (or lack thereof)

Today's the day.

I'm all nervous and stuff.

I really want to go to France.

We'll see, I guess.

I love you all.

I feel sick.

I threw up a couple times yesterday. I think that's the first time since eighth grade.

I blame you.

So I'm staying home today. Hopefully, I can make up my French oral exam.

I have to go call work now.

I love you all.

France
On Thursday they will mail out the acceptance letters. Since I live off campus, I will not recieve mine until Friday. However, a list of those who have been accepted will be posted on the door of the International Studies office.

So now I have more waiting.

In my interview, I mentioned the fact that cost was an issue. The head of the International Studies office said there were multiple study abroad scholarships available, including one from an Aquinas graduate who went to France and loved it. She said that the scholarships would be applied to the cost of tuition and if any money was left over, it would then be applied to the program cost.

I'm excited. I cannot wait until Thursday.

I have my interview for France today at 3.

My good friend Emily has hers right before me.

I really do hope we both make it.

I love you all.

So yeah, sent info to the wrong college, sent in my application to San Francisco State University. It's still cheaper than Hawaii, so I am most likely going there.

Oh and these two stupid kids honked at me when I was turning left onto Plymouth on my way home. Stupid kids, I love you both. Sorry I didn't look happy, I was in mortal pain due to the fact that I can't take my meds until Sunday.

I told my sister that everytime she mispronounces a French word that my French professor, Michel Pichot, has little heart attacks (since he can't be rolling in his grave).

She says I can't say that anymore. It makes her feel...something. I told her it's called sympathy and her lack of a heart can't handle it.

She just commented on how her hair goes past her boob. She says it never used to.

My sister rocks.

Also, earlier she was talking to one of her friends and I told her to tell them I said hi and that they were cool beans (I had no idea who this person was). Her friend then asked Hannah my age and when Hannah replied with 19, her friend commented that she thought I was 6.

Anyway, my sister's asking me silly French questions (she's reading Les Miserables) because she's awesome.

I went to the doctor today. I'm going on the Pill to stop my horrible cramps.

I even got away with not having a pelvic exam.

Yay!

I totally forgot to say the very reason I'm updating.

I'm thinking of joining the Peace Corps once I'm done with school.

College expenses
University of Hawaii (estimated) - $20,000

Univeristy of San Fransisco (estimated) - $41,000

Guess which one I would rather go to.

I have the best boyfriend ever.

Check out what Nick got me:

403 Forbidden!

That's right. I'm a gay robot.

Yeah, he also got me a bunch of cheese.

It's nice to have the books for my classes.

What did Rachel get for her birthday? C'mon, you know you want to know.

She not only got a bunch of totally awesome stuff but also a bunch of totally awesome Rene Magritte stuff.

How awesome? So awesome that she's not using a cut tag.

First off, I got this book:

(These are pictures from the publisher's website. It is a terrific book. It sort of explains his life and tells what he said about his works, trying really hard not to put meanings to them.)

Then, I got these totally awesome cards:

If I wasn't so tired and lazy, I'd scan them for you.

Anyway, I'm just Magritte-geeking.

Kelly, remember Julius Sumner Miller? Here's a site with some of his videos from the early 60's.

:: 2006 30 January :: 10.11pm
:: Music: William Shatner (who told him to make an album?)

I have an interview with Michel Pichot (my advisor and current French prof) and the head of the International Programs Office at 3 on Friday, February 10th.

Wish me luck.

I'll know if I am accepted by mid-February.

I really hope I get in. I just don't know what they judge it on.
