Jill ne sais quoi

I have crazy busy these past few days and have not had enough time to write. Classes started the day before yesterday and we have to go to all the classes that are offered through the international program for the first two weeks. After this trial period, we can decide which ones we want to take for reals, but in the meantime we're spending all day at the Universite and only getting out of class at around 17h30.

I tested into the lower language level, which I was a little disappointed about, but I'm in one of the higher lower (ha!) levels, I like my professor and I have no class on Fridays! So I'm pretty happy about it now. The only thing that being in B1 really messes up is my Arabic class. I will have to wait until coming back to BU in order to finish. That will be really rough, but I'm going to try to find a way to keep up with it while I'm here, and who knows, maybe I'll be able to have Amine or Bekkai again.

These past few days have been crawling by because I've been going to all these classes that I know I don't want to take (French economics, French art history, etc.). Here are the classes I am going to take:

French and Francophone Literature
Translation (into English)
Contemporary French History
French Language Level B1.7
an undetermined Linguistics course

I can't wait to get into some sort of routine. These random hours are killing me.

P.S. Withdrawing 100€ from the ATM and watching $140 disappear from your bank account really stinks.

P.P.S. Can we look at the title of "Dan in Real Life" en francais? It means: love at first sight in Rhode Island.
