A chronicling of my semester abroad in Angers, France (January-June 2008)

Keepin' on Keepin' on.
So, for the first time in a while I will NOT be writing a small novel in disguise as a blog post! I just figured it was about time to check in and let everyone know how things are going. It was very strange at first going back to "normal living" in Angers after such a crazy, intense week in Germany, but very nice as well. It's so funny how even in a foreign country thousands of miles away from home I can still find habits, fall into the patterns of daily living, get swept up with life and watch it pass. That is a bit my story of late...going with the flow of classes, outings with friends, homework, etc. I got to see a couple films this weekend (Le Printemps du Cinéma, so every showing of every film in every theater cost 3 euros 50!) - Paris (interesting portrait of life in Paris...made me think of Love Actually. I know there's Paris, je t'aime, but this Paris actually connected the different stories. I definitely liked it better, and it definitely left you with things to think about when it was over) and Bienvenue chez les Ch'tis (which I highly reccomend, particularly to French speakers...it's hilarious). My big news really is that I am leaving Easter Weekend to make a short pilgrimage to Lourdes - I am quite excited :) I leave tomorrow at 13h38 (and get there at 21h10 - bleh. A couple of Train switches/wait times) and I stay there until Monday (leave at 11h00 and get to Angers at 18h00). I'll be sure to keep you all in my prayers - and Happy Easter!!!
