be jealous....

Sunday night was super fab i slept for a whole ten-ish minutes.
and i'm pretty i have figured out one of the grand sources of my sleeplessness: i am in a single. i truly truly truly do not like being alone and it has become more and more apparent over the last couple years of my life. not entirely sure why i wasn't allowed to have a double... whatevs i suppose i'll survive.

monday we had our first conjugation quiz in the language class at the Sorbonne. i still love my professor :) (sidenote i burned my thumb on the toaster... just to add to my list of injuries) and we talked about some grammar rules. i had absotively nothing else going on that day so i tried REALLY hard to take a nap- something i'm very bad at doing slash hate doing. i like the idea of a nap. but it never turns out well so i try to avoid them. i turned on the little mermaid 2 and got abotu 1.5 hours worth in. time well spent :) i enjoyed a nice dinner with lena that we concluded with some more of my diy crêpes- this time only with nutella because i had finished the bananas, but ce n'est pas grave- j'en ai plus maintenant! yay! :-D
i somehow forced myself to go to bed at a slightly more decent hour than usual (which i will not disclose here) and was pleased to find that i was able to sleep last night. without any help from wine- the thought had crossed my mind, then i remembered it was nina we were talking about and the thought made it to the other side and continued in it's merry way.

today we got our tests back... he began by saying something like "ok there was ONE perfect quiz! excellent. a good number of a's with des petites fautes, some c's and d's tsk tsk." then he walks around and starts to hand them back one by one and talks to each individual student (25 ish students) about what she did right or wrong vERy loudly- nice and embarassing for everyone. finally the last one is mine "and the whole class will be very jealous of nina's test! pas de fautes!" well.... i got the 100! anddddd everyone knew... :P c'est la vie haha.

this afternoon we had our first Paris-France-Paris class with Thierry Bonzon. It's 3 hours once a week, which sometimes includes an excursion to a certain part of Paris. it seems like it will be much more interesting than i thought- i was nervous it would be all history and i told him this... and i told him i hate history. i probably should have mentioned econ and politics too because he emphasized that. oh well. basically, we'll learn about paris and it's relationship with the rest of france and how it got that way and stuff like that. so we'll learn about the banlieus, it's relation to province, its geography and the sociology related to that, etc. etc. (another sidenote: red robin is currently teasing me and sending me emails about delicious burgers. so not cool, red.)
i made myself a cheeseburger tonight- i overcooked it but it was good nonetheless :) now i just have to make it over to that smoooooothie place please and thank you YUM. soon!

i get to see an old friend this weekend - SO excited - and we start our internships next monday. things to look forward to :)

stay classy kids.
