Thanks to Cindy for this. Beards are hot and in style. But I already knew this, they were cool like 4 years ago in the Northwest, and...actually they have alays been cool, and will always be cool. I have so many bearded friends in Missoula. Yay, beards.

Why not? It cost nearly 30euros, iffy to be worth it; it was raining too. But, meh, what else would we do?? There is nothing to do now. It was a pretty city, better than Rennes since it had a hill and actual flowers and trees in bloom. It is a different season there I guess.
We are making these t-shirts that say "Erasmus", then our room number and below that, our country of origin. It's in the style of a jersey. It ROCKS. Then we will have a slogan for the girls saying, "faite pour la fête" and for the guys, "Plus facile la vie" You won't get that unless you are a student here and shop at Champion--Alanna you know what's up. Good times. Then the date, a french flag, and maybe "Breizh" on the sides. They are turning out so well now. It is awesome. Erasmus shirts rock!
I am in the middle of figuring out this shit semester. I don't want to pay thousands of dollars anymore for getting fuck all, nothing, nada, zilch. It is not cool at all. Ugh, damn France. Tuesday is a general strike...so we better stock up on supplies tomorrow. This country is falling apart.
