L'Automne en France: August 2010
http://sarahenparis.blogspot.com/2010_08_01_archive.html
Friday, August 27, 2010. First day of school. Yesterday I was able to learn about the French family I will be staying with. First off, they live in a house just down the street from school, still in the 11th arrondissement. Houses are incredibly. Rare in Paris, especially so close to the center. They also have a small yard! And I said "MARIE CURIE! And I answered the question correctly even though I wasn't even listening well. We didn't go into the Pantheon or other buildings so I will certainly have...

L'Automne en France: September 2010

Saturday, September 25, 2010. The Grass is Greener Where There is No Concrete. BRIEF RANT: My search for boots in Paris has been on for 3 weeks and I am just now blogging about it. I have had a shockingly difficult time finding a the perfect pair of boots. I waited to buy nice boots here, but I think it would have been easier to find ones that work in the US! Then we arrived in Giverny, the little town where Claude Monet spent the last half of his life. The whole area was green and flowers were bloom...

L'Automne en France: Pour Elise
http://sarahenparis.blogspot.com/2010/10/pour-elise.html
Saturday, October 23, 2010. Today hasn't been a good day, but I won't talk about that right now. It was interesting to see how the French laughed at different parts than us. Of course, they only got subtitles. In the movie they were making fun of how small Monaco is and that certainly tickled the French crowd. A while ago I had a book recommended to me called Never Let Me Go. So here's the critical part of this post, for Elise's eyes only! Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). La Ville de Lille.

L'Automne en France: November 2010
http://sarahenparis.blogspot.com/2010_11_01_archive.html
Wednesday, November 3, 2010. Books and my first day at AUC. So today I woke up early to catch the 7:40 bus to AUC (The American University in Cairo)with Elise. Later I find out that she tricked me into getting up early, she didn't have class until 11:30! So sneaky. But it's really okay Elise! P The shiny new campus is out in the desert, so the bus ride is approximately an hour or more one way. Elise takes this bus to school four days a week! Tuesday, November 2, 2010.

L'Automne en France: La Ville de Lille
http://sarahenparis.blogspot.com/2010/10/la-ville-de-lille.html
Sunday, October 17, 2010. La Ville de Lille. While I'm writing this my little host brother started singing The Imperial March from Star Wars. Haha! So my planned trip to Marseilles this weekend was ruined by the strike, although my friend Lauren was still able to make it on a different train, but that's a long sad story I won't tell again. But obviously it wasn't a problem. Today I have to write a paper for French about The Stranger. I have a love-hate relationship with Cliffnotes because it allows stude...

L'Automne en France: Oops!
http://sarahenparis.blogspot.com/2010/12/oops.html
Sunday, December 5, 2010. My sincerest apologies to those who read my blog regularly, it seems that I've let it die. I'm sure I've had all kinds of fun adventures the past 4 weeks, but I doubt I can share them in detail without writing a novel. So I'll give you a very brief list, just so you know. I did spend the rest of fall break with Elise in Egypt, which included going to the Fayuum oasis and the Cairo museum. The next weekend was a four day weekend during which I spend two rainy days in Bruxelles.

L'Automne en France: Weeks of Chaos
http://sarahenparis.blogspot.com/2010/11/weeks-of-chaos.html
Tuesday, November 2, 2010. Wednesday night was a crepe dinner organized by Accent followed by a night view of Paris from the top of the Montparnasse Tower. I would have enjoyed the evening more if I hadn't had to go home and frantically study, but it was a good view. We then ate dinner at classy Pizza Hut, but we could see the sun set behind the pyramids from the restaurant so it was worth it. After some gelato we returned home, I washed all the dust off of myself, and here I am. How dumb is that? Travel...
