to experience france: watch people live

last week was spectacularly busy. i have passed out while editing pictures and on floors more times than i care to mention.

but the whole process of being in france, though at times it's been stressful and dramatic, has so far left me feeling more peaceful and in tune with myself than i can remember. suddenly it's not so scary that i'll be graduating soon (though please don't mention numbers of days or weeks until may 9), and things are falling into place. good things are happening, resume boosters are appearing out of nowhere and i might not even care because planning for the pancake tour is in the works. not that we'll ever really plan, "plan." we will just go.

thanks to little men like this, and many other things, life goes on.

The 80's are in sight!

the ten-day weather forecast gets me all the way to next friday--and also to france.

with this next trip coming up, i kind of wish i was staying for more than two weeks. shouldn't i just stay a while longer? yeah.. probably. at least another international trip is in sight. spain! it's hard to believe that so many fantastic opportunities come to me without me having to look at all. and what makes it even sweeter is that someone else foots the bill. thanks mom & dad! thanks cbh! oh, thank you cbh.
