I have a new subletter in the back bedroom. His name is Paul, and he is doing a 1-month surgical internship at Columbia Presbyterian. He is from Arizona. He is very quiet, studious and shy, but he likes the cats, and he tells me every time he sees one of the cats do something cute. Animals bring people out of their shells.
After Paul, we will have Claire, who is coming from France for six months to work for the French cultural attache in New York. She came through a reference from the viola da gamba society, she is an amateur viol player and she wanted to live with someone who can give her viol lessons. Moi, je la donnerai les lecons de viol, aussi nous pourrions jouer des duets. Ce sera sympa d'avoir une autre femme ici!
La classe que j'apprends a l'alliance francais cet ete est tres bon, la prof est si meilleure que Madame Rubin. Elle parle toujours de la philosophie et la culture du grammaire, pas seulement des regles.
Jeremy's ex-girlfriend Heather is here, she was here when I got home from class. They are playing clarinet duets in the livingroom. This time I sat down and had a conversation with them for several minutes.
