This week

Wow this week has been crazy so far! For starters, one of my professors asked how many of us are Americans in his class and there’s 3 of us, then he asked if we wouldn’t mind  being filmed because he knows the director of a film and they need some Americans in it I guess so we’re going to do that later this month. Should be fun!
I got my medical letter in the mail yesterday. The letter that all of us international students hoped we’d have in Jan or at least Feb…oh well. So I got called in on Friday, March 18th so that means I’ll be missing class that day and taking a train to southern France to get a medical check. Oh yays! :P Then I’ll have the paperwork to do once I have my appointment.
Hockey finals are this month!! Marjo and I are trying to decide if we’re going to go to the semi-finals, which we know Angers is in, or wait and see if Angers makes it to the finals and go then…we haven’t decided yet.
Yesterday Gabriella had some problems with her laptop so Marjo and I got ours and tried to figure out how to fix hers by looking at ours…it turned into a comedy show because Gabby’s computer is in Spanish, Marjo’s in Finnish, and mine is in English. So I’d give directions of how to go somewhere on the computer like “go to Command” and Gabby said “What is ‘Command’? What is that word in Spanish?” “uhhh…commando? I don’t know Spanish!” and Marjo piped in “I can tell you what that word is in Finnish!” lol so that was how we spent our late afternoon…afterwards all three of us went and got a baguette and walked back and my roommate James walked past us and he looked at me and started laughing really hard and I couldn’t figure out why until he pointed at my shirt and bread. I was wearing a black and white striped shirt and carrying a baguette…all I needed was a beret! J
In the evening Gabriella said she and the other Mexicans were going to mass tonight and asked if Marjo and I were going. We’re not catholic but figured it’d be a good experience to go esp. since we’re in France. Most of it was in French, some in Latin so I don’t really know what they said and what we were singing…lol naw I understood parts of it but not most of it. And by the time we got to the cathedral and sat down to start mass I was sooo sleepy having been going really hard all day since 6 that I was really afraid I’d fall asleep. I didn’t but came close a couple times. Thankfully they have you stand and sit a bunch so it keeps you awake for the 2 hour mass.

Today I’ve been sick L fever and cold - not fun…
