Last night, I went out to dinner at Le Florimond with my mom's old boss from GAO and we had a blast. The resturant is just around the corner from my apartment and is a local favorite. When I told my host mom I was going there, she pretty much went crazy with excitement, she since and some friends go regularly a few times a year. After raving about the host Laurent (who wears crazy ties) she assured me I would have a great time.
Leslie and I met for a dinner reservation at 7, which is still early by Paris time. In the end it worked out perfect though because we stayed for three and a half hours! We ate some delicious food (I can't lie, dessert is always my favorite) and I loved the chocolate mousse and some tasty monkfish. Leslie and I talked all about the different places she is volunteering now that she is retired and we talked all about visiting and living in Paris. It was the perfect night out on the town.
Today I had Phonetics in the new class, since I am switching times. I still have the same teacher, but there are different kids. For whatever reason, I like the new class way better. I think it is a combination of them being a little more ahead, having a generally higher level of french student, and also just having a small group of calm and collected people. I am going to try to keep my chin up and get this phonetics stuff down, but I can lie-- its difficult!
I also finally picked my universirty class! I am going to take twentieth century history at Paris Diderot. We will see how it goes! I am a little nervous, but I am sure that everything will work out fine!
