Tomorrow, I go back to class eekkk! Definitely scared about that, but hopefully it'll be okay...
In the meantime, I've been moving into my new apartment! My roommate and I brought my two huge suitcases from my friend's place just outside of Paris to our apartment inside the city.
Usually we could take the metro, but because we had my huge suitcases with us, and the metro stations don't have elevators and only sometimes have escalators, we decided to just take the buses. So, we looked up the trip, which seemed really easy with just two buses. But unfortunately, it definitely wasn't easy because of the strikes... So, our well-planned trip became quite a lot of walking, dragging of the suitcases, and consulting maps for buses we could take.
But now all my stuff is here, and I'm excited to get all settled in! Here are more pictures, of my move to Paris, random pictures on my excursions in Paris, some last few pictures of my trip to Stockholm, and some pictures from my Parisien apartment! :D

ReplyDeleteAlso, favorite picture, right here: http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-pv3up0V8OB4/Txvw5EVz1RI/AAAAAAAADT0/1pnuGV7qhGw/s1600/Flagged+-+58.jpg XD
I don't know if you heard about it, (I imagine it was unavoidable, what with all the noise people were making on FB) but Seattle was recently hit with a couple days of incapacitating snow. Is it snowing much where you are, or is it temperate enough that you don't have to worry about that much? :)
I like the title of this blog post. And I'm also curious to the comment above; how was the climate over there?
