I am writing once again from the APA offices - my unofficial new home, it seems. I have my course selection meeting with the head of the program in like 2 hours.
Just a couple of things because I don't think I'll be able to write for the next couple of days. Tonight, I am spending the night out with a friend because all of us in the program are going out to celebrate two birthdays. (And I really don't want to fight with the RER.) Tomorrow (bright and early) we are leaving for Bourgogne to eat dinners in caves and go wine tasting.
This is the 21st birthday of two girls in the program, Kate and Simran. Kate is totally nonchalant about it. She figures she's in Paris and that's a great birthday as it is. Simran, however, has been having a hard time adjusting in general and she's really upset her friends from home aren't here with her today. I totally understand but I feel so bad because she's been crying a lot.
I think she's also upset there aren't any solid plans for tonight. I suggested that all of us put just a euro or so in the pot and get her something nice. We'll see.
So far, it has been a hard adjustment at times and I do miss my friends, but I haven't been homesick.
Anyway, I'll hopefully have some time to write later but if not I'll write all about Bourgogne when I get back on Monday night.
Bon weekend!

I know you meant to say you miss your friends AND family? But I am glad you have not been homesick yet.
Love,
Mom
