I've been so bad about writing in this blog, but things have been so crazy. I begin my internship at 10 AM from Monday to Thursday, and have classes until 5 PM each day, except Wednesdays, when I go until 7:15, and Friday mornings I begin at 9 (with a rather incompetant professor, I might add). On top of that I work a few evenings a week, and I try to balance all of that with some semblance of a social life. I manage, but am often very tired, and blogging kind of gets put on the back burner.
But anyway, things are mostly good. There have been a few less-than-ideal things that have happened with my internship, but I think it would be inappropriate to go into detail since I must not forget this is a public space. Nothing unmanagable, though, and I think soon I will be working on some new and more current projects rather than just doing translations.
I try to go to a museum each weekend, and here are some pictures of the Cluny/Middle Ages Museum! I went her the weekend before last, because I'd had a pretty so-so weekend (which included seeing the last metro pull out of the station and then spending an hour and a half on the Noctilien). And apparently there is nothing quite like hundreds of representations of Christ crucified to cheer me up! Just kidding. But I do think the Cluny is incredibly beautiful, and the garden is so tranquil, despite being right next to Boulevard St-Germain.
Halloween in Paris ended up being lovely! Gregg (a friend from home) was here visiting me, and we cooked dinner with some friends at Cité Universitaire. Dinner included lots of cheap champagne, of course.
I will try to post again soon!
