Long Time No Update

Sorry it's been so long since I've updated this thing..its been kinda crazy..were in the middle of trying to find internships in Geneva for the month of May...im of course behind on it

Last weekend I went to Lyon to visit Julie and the LeFeuvre family who I stayed with Senior year, and who came to visit me a few times..shes one of my very best friends so it was amazing to see her and the rest of the family. plus a visit to Lyon always means good food and good shopping. i bought a new coat. sorry dad. (above should be a picture of her and I)....we walked around the city, ate, and saw a movie..it was perfect

Now it is around 6 at night, and me and the other girls in the program are at a cafe planning our trip for next week.  The last day we are allowed to be in Montpellier is Friday (we were here for a month at an intensive french program, living with families) and we start classes NEXT monday night (like in 10 days) so we have a lot of travel time in between.  This is what were planning....give me some input in your comments!!
