Officially LOST!
Words cannot describe as to what happened today! Yesterday was a great first day of phonetiques et le course de langue français et littérature (French language and literature). We had a Parisian that works at la Sorbonne take us to our class so we were fine. Today was the REAL test. Changing the metro twice and having only 30 minutes to get from phonetiques to the classes at la Sorbonne and not be late...funny. Having another GAP Year student I thought it would be easy. WRONG! Our French class is 2 hours long...let's just say that we were so lost that by the time we got to the building we only had 10 minutes left of class. Not even worth going in and trying to explain as to why we were an hour and fifty minutes late...so what did we do you ask? Took a stroll through le Jardin de Luxembourg, had lunch at a lovely cafe along the gardens, and had a few drinks in the bar. Oh...might I add that my drink was equivalent to $15! Ohhh yes, I nursed that thing like there was no tomorrow. The bar tender came to take it from me and the claws came out. I drank every ounce of that piña colada until I made that obnoxious "there is clearly no more alcohol in this cup" slurping noise. now I know why every Parisians favorite alcohol is the cheap kind that comes in a box. Well, I'm off to bed saying a few Hail Mary's praying I will make it to class on time tomorrow!
Jusqu'à ce que nous parlons encore!
