Well, you were wonderful. I only regret that we didn't have more time together. perhaps in another life, it could have been different. you were the best thing to happen to me all summer, and our brief fling just wasn't enough.

you were the best motorcycle ever =/

anyway, i'm back in france. i have a lot of things to do and i am extremely stressed, mostly because of money problems. it's taking a lot longer to get my loans than i expected and i'm hurting for cash more now than i ever have in my life. but the people i have in angers make it seem less disastrous. i'm trying to convince my dad to cosign a $10,000 loan. he doesn't want to because he thinks i won't pay it back and he'll be responsible, which is ridiculous. i told him if i don't pay it back, he can use my life insurance money because me dying is the only way that would happen.

i think this is unreasonable for several reasons. first of all, i have shown myself to be incredibly credit-worthy. i made $25,000 last year. how many 21 year olds who are also schooling full-time work that much? tout ça en buvant comme un poisson. and my credit rating is in the 800s or 900s which i'm pretty sure is quite good for someone my age. and secondly, does he think i would treat him like this when he retires and needs someone to help him? is that the way family is supposed to be?

anyway, i don't know. that's what is really stressing me out right now. also i have to find an apartment, get a residence card, get a bank account and a phone, pay my tuition, and a pile of other things. but all that is sort of fun and challenging because i know i can do it, even if it is a huge hassle. france makes you jump through 23487 loops to do anything.

pourtant, je l'aime.
