Last day in France

So I don't know if anybody is still reading, but I'll post, I guess.

Today is my last day in Paris (with the entire group here)- it's so sad. I can't believe the semester is already over and it's summer! Where did it all go? Jeez! I wish I could live it all over again, the exact same way.

It's been great having the gang in Paris: Alli, Scott, Meg and her mom (Kelly). Today, I had to ditch them to, dare I say it, pack. So while they were out all day, I packed. I have so much shit! But like the good Pole that I am, I put all of the space bags inside one of them and squeezed all of the air out to make room. Haha- didn't need them- it's better to have the clothes as cushion.

Tonight, we're going to this place called Bollywood Lounge- a cool lounge in the Latin Quarter (that is, my study abroad group of friends)- my friends from home are going to Montmartre to see Sacre Coeur and the Moulin Rouge, and eat at our favorite fondue place. So we'll be dining separately, but then after, we are all going to meet up and go out one last time in Paris (though I'll be back in Paris on June 5th, 6th, and 7th).

Tomorrow morning, I leave for Portugal. I'm very excited to visit Lisbon and then Madrid- but most excited to come back to Paris again, that is, before coming to NY. Though it may sound that I'm not excited to come home- I am. I can't wait to see my family and friends (especially you Callie!) but I'll miss my friends that I made here, I'll miss France, the language- the culture- the place itself! I wish I could just come home for a good 3 week or so vacation, and then come back to France. I loved it so much and I'm so grateful for this opportunity of a lifetime that my parents worked so hard to afford me. I love you!

Hope everything is going well with everybody back in the US- I miss you all- I think about you all the time. See you soon!

Au revoir!
