it has been too long since i've updated. finals kind of got ahold of me and then me getting home was very complicated and i was really only there for a few hours (long enough to eat at mi cocina) and then hop on a flight to paris. it was very surreal. everything was very surreal. getting off the plane and smelling it. the pastries at paul, the RER with the same ads, the countryside, the sounds of the city, everything. europe is just so intoxicating. it really is. my trip was awesome. we had a lot of bad luck (dad's wallet got stolen, i got sick on Christmas eve, etc) but it was still great having the whole family together again.
So after a brief stint home, I am back in freaking Utah. Let me just say this has the potential to be one of my most depressed semesters yet. All of my classes are crazy challenging and I'm thinking I'll just have to postpone Japanese because it's too hard to deal with right now. I will miss all the cute guys in my class though. That's a bummer. But its not like I'm trying to make friends this semester anyway, right? I've kind of settled on the fact that guys are superior to girls, that loyalty doesn't exist here, and that me attempting to be attractive is a fruitless and ridiculous endevour because I am just not what guys are looking for. I'm not fishing for compliments or looking for a hand on my shoulder, I'm just venting.
Also my ballet class is amazing.
