Hopefully some of you got the Bassnectar reference.
My visa is ready!!! The French Consulate called me on Wednesday to let me know. That took under a week, nowhere close to 15-21 days. I was stressed for no reason. To say the least, I am glad it all worked out. I will pick up my visa (and passport) the day before my flight since I am flying out of Atlanta.
Now to worry about packing...well I haven't let myself think about it too much until after I take the GMAT Tuesday, which I have only studied 2 hours total for. Needless to say I am stressed out, and I am obviously in my college grad mode o.O
I currently procrastinating studying by watching the opening ceremony of the Olympics, which I feel is a good enough excuse-- at this point anything is really. I thought the opening ceremony was pretty strange...they always are and are never worth watching in my opinion. I didn't get celebrating the Industrial Revolution, but whatever floats your boat England.
France just walked on! I have been waiting for France to come on. I guess they are my second favorite team after TEAM AMERICA. Why does the US have to be basically dead last... that is all I am waiting for during this march of the world thing. I also have noticed that the opening ceremony is narrated in English as well as French, why not Spanish? But whenever the French is on, I am piecing together phrases, so I am proud of myself. Although things are really clarified when the English comes on after obviously.
Oh I also reached a goal of mine today-- I ran 5 miles! I have been running for over a year and, slowly but surely, been upping my mileage every now and then. Maybe one day I will do a half-marathon.
Well nothing else exciting to report here. I have 15 days until my departure. Hopefully my life will be worth reading starting August 12-- sorry to bore you with my pre-France stage.
À bientôt! (My international keyboard makes my life way easy)
