The past week was a lot of the same stuff of course. Had my second week of courses. This semester is going to be a lot easier than last because I know what to expect, I have one less course, and one of my courses is just a language course. So lundi (Monday) I have 2 in a row, mardi 2 in a row, and mercredi one. It's pretty great-4 day weekends all the time!!
On Wednesday, Dunc babysat with me the whole time. The kids love him and his American accent. We went to the store with the kids and I let them pick out a pizza. It was a pack of three of course! The parents came home at the same time and Dunc was nervous haha but they're so nice so he felt better. He was glad to get out though..
Thursday night we watched a movie with Alex and Matthew. Saturday, Matthew, Alex,
Host grand parents had their 58th anniversary the other day, so they went to dinner and then to their home in the country side for the week. I need to figure out what they used to do..
Singles' Awareness Day, popularly known as Valentine's Day was Monday. I wasn't bitter about it-good for you if you have someone to send you chocolate! Alex, Brian, Dunc, and I went to cheap university dining, bought some chocolate and wine, and went to my place to watch atypical comedy movies to celebrate. It was actually really enjoyable!
Yesterday morning I had a class excursion to a memorial in Le Marais for prosecuted French Jews during WWII. Though it was a quick visit, it was equally interesting as it was emotional. Seeing an entire room of pictures of persecuted children was the hardest part to learn about. There were so many horrors of that war, but I believe the treatment of these children was the worst.
On a lighter note..
I'm so excited for Carrie to come back to Paris in preparation for our trip to Athens on Friday! Alex, Dunc, Carrie and I are gonna eat like (Greek) gods!!
