Several days in Paris
So nothing extreme and out of the ordinary has really happened. I have fallen into the schedule of everyday life in Paris. Getting up and going to a three hour French class followed by six hours of dance. For some reason when I get back home I am so tired and all I want to do is sleep. Now that I am used to the time difference I have no trouble sleeping, in a way thats good but I just have no energy to write about my days. But they really are not all that interesting, I mean I guess there are different smells that I experience on the metro rides. The mixture is between rotten eggs and pee. Not a very pleasant smell. Then you have the hour long rides from our school to the French school. People traffic happen at all times, some people walk in diagonals and then some of them just stop in the middle of the subway while others run you down when you dont walk fast enough. Gosh the French and their walking, I think every city is like that though in a way. Monday I took two jazz classes and one of them it was the first time I was taking the class. The class was pretty good and I think I'll take it every monday from now on. The class had a set warm-up and because it was my first time taking it I didn't know it the warm-up. The teacher also didn't really explain it much so I was a little lost but when it was time for the combo he slowed down and explained the combo in a way that was perfect. I picked it up and actually loved it. We continued to make the same book in book binding but we were not able to finish it. Then talked about the Venus de Milo in my Louvre class. All in all the week was good so far, just a regular college week but in Paris. Though seeing everyone's status' back home about the weather makes me a little upset, I swear cold weather is following me. It has been in the twenties the whole week and its like fifty in Pittsburgh, not okay. Well we are off to normandy this weekend, early Saturday morning. I will have lots of pictures and stories to tell Sunday when I get back. So until then I will enjoy myself in the city of lights! and cold apparently. Mom, don't tell Grandma.
