Brevity

As I find myself suddenly with a half-hour break in my busy schedule before class and I thought I should spend some of it telling you all about all the things that are making me too busy to blog regularly.

There have been excursions. Lourdes with Maria (a Catholic friend) was a neat/peaceful/moving experience. And the weather was lovely!

In fact, the weather in Paris has been steadily improving over the past few weeks. It's in that awkward place where you have to carry your heavy coat around in the afternoon.

Like when two friends from Gaming came to visit during ten-day. They finally contacted me and it was great to see them.

But I've been too busy with business to enjoy the outdoors too much. (I feel like I could enjoy Paris more if I had internet at home and could do all this work A) when everyone in the USA is awake and B) when the office is closed instead of when the sun is out.

But! My taxes are done. I've all but signed the FAFSA. I've got to run to the post office to mail my houseing deposit. I've got to wait for my study abroad transcripts to come in to be able to register for classes before Apr 17. (Prerequisites) That should probably happen in time, but if it doesn't, I'll have to register for some bogus class to be full-time and qualify for housing. Any suggestions? :)

But fortunately, things are more of less working out on that end, or at least should be able to be figured out by the time classes start. I still feel like it's out of sight out of mind with the faculty and staff of FUS though.

And this last week-end we went to the Loire valley, which included a massive wine-tasting and then a karioke session in the bus. Yes.

And I'm still doing Script Frenzy, which is going on swimmingly, or at least swimming slowly.

Gotta run to class now, Have a blessed Holy Week and easter tout le monde!

Registration is still stupid even over here. At least here I just have to run all over campus fixing things, rather than trying to do so transatlantically.

Yeah... no matter how many times I try, I can't quite get the hang of running across the Atlantic.

For bogus classes, I recommend art as something worth "wasting" a class on, assuming 1) you aren't already too experienced in it to learn anything from whatever you can get and 2) you can find a decent class.

I actually meant a bogus class that I would drop as soon as I didnt need it on my schedule to make me "officially" full-time.
But they changed the prereqs for one class, so I didn't have to do that.
