All my bags are packed, I'm ready to go...

Alright so all my bags aren't packed, but I've finally started! Today is my last day in Seattle! I've officially turned over my keys to Katy who will be living in my room during the fall, and I'm moving out of the house tomorrow. It's pretty bittersweet, especially after getting to hang out with all of my roommates at the house for the first time this weekend. Sad to see us split up again so soon! But it was a great last weekend in Seattle and SO good to see all my girls!

Since I'm leaving in less than a week (!), I thought it'd be a good time to post a little info about my trip! Hopefully I'll be pretty good about updating this while I'm gone, at least to keep track of things so I can look back once I get home.

I'm studying french language and culture at the University of Paris IV, La Sorbonne! I'll be taking language classes and then a few other classes that I'll choose when I get there. I'm hoping for art history or lit or architecture, or something of that sort. I'm living with three other girls from the US in an apartment in the 15th arrondisment of Paris. My address is 65 Boulevard de Vaugirard, Paris, 75015 and i LOVE getting mail! =]. To send mail, address anything to me c/o M. Bellocq (the landlord).

A cell phone comes with my program, so I've already gotten the phone I'll take with me! My european number will be 33632895860, but I also have a US virtual number so it's free to call! Actually all incoming calls are free, but probably only for me, not the caller. My US number is 2532000930. I've never been a 253 girl before!

I'm ridiculously excited to leave, but it's still hard to believe it's actually happening! I'm not sure it'll hit me until the wheels lift off the ground at SeaTac. I won't be back in Seattle until 2011, which is so strange to think about! I'm going to miss Seattle and all the people in it so much, but I know that my time will fly by and I'll be home before I know it!

Well the next time I write it'll be from France, so à bientôt!
