Vive la France!


Well not much has happened yet so much has happened since the last time I posted.
Time seems to take on a whole new meaning here. I fell like I have been here forever, but in a good way. At home I live in the middle of nowhere and therefore I don't do much. Here is a completely different store. Everyday seems to be get up and go, go, go, and I love it.
We finally started our classes this week. Our canadian profs. classes seem pretty good, but their will be quite a bit of work to do. The french profs. seem to underestimate our level of french, and therefore we have a very easy work load.
Last night I went to Ikea to do a little bit of shopping, and you guessed it Ikea here is the same as ikea anywhere. Looks like I'll have somewhere to go if I ever get homesick! One trouble area I have noticed is that books are extremely cheap here in France, and I can't seem to stop buying them!!! My lugage was not overweight on the way over, but I can tell it will be on the way home!
Well, I don't have much more to say, so ta ta for now

IM IN NANTES!!!!!!!!!!!

Well actually i'm in Clisson right now writting this message. Things are great I've decided I love France, but I hate their keyboards! Today I visited the castle here in Clisson, it is amazing the town is cute. Yesterday we were swimming in the Atlantic Ocean, it's like a dream. The flight was pretty good, we had a night flight which means in theory we should have been able to sleep, but of course I couldn't. The first day was terribly long I was up for well over 35 hours straight, after about 2 weeks of hardly being able to sleep. All in all, I am extremely happy, I absolutely love it here! I haven't quite figured out the whole picture set up, once I do (some time in October) I will post some stuff.
Anyways I feel like I'm in a dream right now and I hope the whole year doesn't go by as fast as the last few days have.
Until next time,
Love Ya'll
