Nervousness & Home-Cooked Food

Some deep thoughts:

So I'll just go ahead and say that I'm starting to get a little nervous. I think it hit me the other day when I was thinking about how much time 3 months is exactly... 3 months is 3/4 of a semester... and an entire season! (well, everywhere except Texas). That's a long time!

Twice as long as I've ever gone without seeing my family.

But now I feel kinda guilty - I've been dreaming about doing this for so long (almost 3 and a half years to be exact) that I feel like I should only be excited. Like I'm kinda letting myself down because I'm feeling scared and uncertain. Yet something as extreme as this trip is bound to come with a little apprehension, right? Like finding a place to live, giving my first tour, making myself speak French :-/

So I have to keep telling myself, 3 months isn't that bad - Its exciting really... in a nervous kinda way.

On a lighter note:

  1. I am FINALLY a college graduate!!!
  2. I'm completely moved out of my house in College Station
  3. I may not have to worry about getting my visa and dealing with the French government until I actually get to France
  4. My mommy is going to feed me home-cooked food until I leave for Paris (no more freeze dried dinners for a while :-D)... its good to be spoiled

aww..its okay! You will definitely enjoy your time there!! At this time majority of the people will speak english so you wont feel soo much out of the loop! But I challenge you to speak as much french as you can and eat some pan de chocolate for me!! ;)

also if you have a chance - go to Disneyland -I was not able to do that because of time, but i think its about 30euros a ticket.
-when you go to Lafatette (it's a huge shopping area- find the restaurant its at the top...you will find a something there that you can spend hours just sitting and drinking some tea!

bisous!
