stressed out stilllllllllll

well after a horrible couple of days things are...getting more hectic? not like it's getting easier...i think maybe you just get used to chaos and having people tell you they will meet you at certain times and ending up going by yourself...i dunno...

i need a cell phone...i think that is the semi-project for the day but i'm scared that i will get screwed if i go by myself...but probably if i went with someone else i'd just get us both screwed...hmm and it'd be cool if i could use it in russia too with a different sim card or whatever...

hmmm...

so i'm in my room...i don't remember what i've written so far...Emanuel, Emily, and I finagled a deal where i get his studio and some of his financial aid and he and Emily split the double so that's going well i think...Emily and I go figure out paperwork today at three altho how much do you want to bet that she will forget or not show up?

The first night (errr i think the first night) there was a party where we all salsa danced in this one girl's room...they did shots and stuff but i didn't really feel like it...man tho Emanuel can dance like a crazy o_o

my old room had a window that looked out over the soccer fields so that was cool cuz there were always people out there but now i just look at other people's windows...

oh so the SECOND night or something like that after Chris and I had a maniac grocery/necessity shopping day he cooked the BEST food i've had since i've gotten here o_o he cooked chicken and rice and beans with spanish seasoning and vegies and all sorts of crazy...was suuuuper good...i wish i could do that

(man these kids swear a lot...i'm in a net café across the street from Paris 3...it's pretty cool...)

i had a really unhealthy lunch today...yick...eggs and fruit for dinner...i need some bread too...regular bread...not croissants or weird prepackaged toast (yes...)

uhm...i study a lot...and i need more books to read...some of the MICEFA kids started a book club so I'm going to join i think...i wonder where they get their books...i can't really afford to buy stuff all the time...which reminds me i should be looking for a babysitting job V_V hmmm...i'm reading the history of the color blue in French...did i mention i bought that? it's hard to remember what happened when i can't update everyday...anyhow it's pretty interesting and i'm learning words like teinture and étoffe, loin s'en faut means far from it! so that's interesting...

oh and i tested into the advanced class...i mean there were only two so it wasn't a big deal and actually lots of my better friends are in the lower class but oh well...what's nice is that our tour of this area isn't until tomorrow so i can spend some time sitting here before i go shopping

i need an adaptor for my gameboy and a "dictophone" to record lectures and i'm tempted to buy some speakers for my cd player so i can pump my music...much as i love TSF (89.9 "quatre-vingt neuf neuf") the jazz station, it'd be cool to listen to some of my stuff...they do play good music on TSF tho...they had Kurt Elling on the other night i almost died...it is pretty much all american tho heh x_x but so it goes...most of the rock and stuff is american too so it really doesn't matter what you're listening to

hmmm maybe you can tell i'm still sorta stressed out

i also have no patience anymore

like i said no waiting

some people said they would go for money and meet me back and i was done eating and they still weren't there so i figured they went somewhere else and left...i dunno maybe that was a bad idea but i can't just sit around wasting time...i have a lot of crud to get done

i think my academic interview is thursday at 5:30 but i forgot...i have to be at MICEFA tomorrow morning anyhow so i can just ask then

tonite one of the ladys from MICEFA is having us all over for wine and cheese...neither of which i really like...but i figure i'll go anyhow

wine is cheap here...

the bananas are kinda funky tho ;p
