I think I may have made a wrong choice in choosing la Fondation...I'll talk about it later, I'm too exhausted now.

Had a bunch of orientation crap today, Sam and I went out for a pretty decent lunch (steak frites et un fondant au chocolate!) and then we went back for more orientation stuff. Orientation was so tiring. I'm so glad it's over. Tomorrow we have a little scavenger hunt with a few kids from our language class, and Gerald and I are in the same group so that should be fun.

After orientation stuff, we had two hours to kill before meeting up with the group to see a movie. So Gerald, Sam and I found the theater and then wandered around that arondissement (le 5eme in case you were curious). We kind of stumbled upon Notre Dame, which was exciting and we got some pretty awesome pictures. Quote of the day: We were standing, staring at the back of the cathedral, which is terrible impressive, and Gerald says, "Whenever I see things like this, I'm always like 'Wow, this is really pretty'. And then I'm always like 'Wow, what a waste of money'."



We met the program at this quaint little indie movie theater on a cobblestone street and we watched Paris, je t'aime, a film composed of a bunch of little vignettes (Sam kept using that word and I think it's pretty excellent) made my different directors. I liked the majority of them and overrall I think it was a fantastic film. I'm definitely going to have to watch it at the end of the semester too, just to see if I can find more places I recognize.

After the movie we went out for a crepe dinner with the program, which was delicious. Although my butter and sugar dessert crepe was burnt. Sad. But check out our new friends! See? I told you we had some!
