Today I woke up with an extremely bad headache and feeling like my whole body was just full of adrenaline but also tired at the same time. I hate that feeling. I cut class, got ready for the day and headed to commerce to run a few errands before my trip to PARIS this weekend. Tomorrow right after class I am heading straight to the train station to catch my train and will arrive at my hotel by around 5 p.m. I think. It is going to be great. I am going to eat a real French meal, walk around a bit and hopefully get a glimpse of the Eiffel Tower because my hotel is only 10 min away! Then I will head back to my hotel by 9 because I don’t think it is that safe to be wandering around in Paris alone after that time. I don’t even do it in Nantes and I can guarantee that Nantes is much safer than Paris. Saturday I am hoping to meet up with some friends that are on a BYU-Idaho tour in Paris for the weekend… exciting!!
I spent some time today by the river. It’s becoming one of my favourite places. The leaves are still changing and falling, the sun came out today, and everything was calm and so lovely. I was reminded of all the reasons I fell in love with Europe. I bought a Panini and just sat there eating it and thinking of life. I wish everyone could have the opportunity to do what I get to do here. It’s something really special to me and I will always be really grateful to my parents for helping me be here…and supporting me when I have long hard days and feel like everything is impossible around me. I spoke to my dad today on Skype in french and I’m terrible. Some days I feel like I can speak way better than others…is this normal?! He can still speak really well after all these years of being a return missionary.
