I've been slacking on photos and updates; frankly I've been bored and pessimistic so I didn't feel like doing a whole lot, or flaunting my lack of excitement for all the world to see. I'm the worst Parisian tourist ever.
New Years went well, I bought new shoes but I brought home the wrong size and they were closed when I went to return them (boo) but FSU got a win in Jimbo's first bowl game, I waited until the bar closed and went to breakfast with Matthew and Emma (the bartenders, and Eric-Pierre's-roommate stopped by as well) and went to bed around 9 am for the second night in a three-night streak. It was pretty successful if I do say so myself. Tonight I will probably have to take a Lunesta and get my sleep schedule back to semi-normal. I have shoes to exchange and children to watch tomorrow.
Here are some pics from Connie's last few days and New Years.
|
at the Opera house, even though we didn't get to go in (it was closed) |
|
nativity scene at Notre Dame |
|
Ice skating. This face pretty much sums up the whole experience. |
|
At the airport after a hazardous RER trip. Connie's last pain au chocolate. |
|
Midnight on New Years Eve/Day. I thought (along with hundreds of other people) that there would be fireworks...apparently not. |
Also, I need some goals or projects, something to work on and get me more motivated than I currently am. So, as a new years resolution, I'm starting something called project-365...it's apparently quite popular, but the idea is to take a photo every day. I have a facebook album dedicated to it, but I'll try to update here for those of you who don't use facebook well or at all. Here's what I have so far:
|
Day 1: I don't know who these people are but it made a nice picture. |
|
Day 2: my gift from Steph James, finally some FSU stuff in this otherwise dismally decorated apartment. |
So yeah. My life in a nutshell for those of you following.
