I feel like the little choochoo who can. All my life I've felt like I just wasn't smart enough compared to everyone else. I doubt myself the very second someone even mentions that I might be wrong. I'm a small town girl who has never lived on her own. And here it's completely different. I know my french isn't the best, but it's not the worst, which is how I've always felt. I've always felt like I'm not supposed to be able to learn it, but I keep trying. I think it's my high school mentality because I was the worst in out four person class. It's only been a week and I can already see vast improvements in my french (speaking). There is a french guy here from Palestine who is really nice and we get a long well and it's just nice to actually make friends here.
I'm going to go explore the downtown area for the first time by myself. I think I got the bus thing figured out. I'm not going to buy anything because I'm broke, but it's still fun. And baguettes are only 38cents and wine is only 3 dollars so hey, at least I won't go hungry!
Miss you mainers <3
