Hey Everyone!
Well, finals went OK. Sorry it's been awhile. I'm done with school and on Tuesday I'll be going through the chunnel to London for a couple of nights. I can't wait to get back home. I applied for some jobs at OU and I checked my voicemail and they wanted in interview for an Upward Bound/teaching assistant job for the summer. So I might be going ahead and going back to OU pretty soon, but it really depends when they need me for the job whether it be for June, July, or both. I'll come visit everyone on the weekends except for Natalie and Klayton, but maybe sometime I can fly out there for a little while...maybe after the baby's born.
We've had some good get togethers here in Vichy. A couple of weeks ago we had a graffiti party where everyone wears white t-shirts and everybody writes something on everyone's shirt. The week after that we had a formal get together where we all dressed up and went down by the river and talked, ate, and drank. Last night, we had another as kind of the final get together because people were leaving today and plus yesterday was the last day of finals.
Oh, and 21 Oklahomans are here now for a month long summer program. It's been nice to talk to them every now and then. Anyways, I'll talk to y'all later.

FYI
Hey Everyone,
This post is mainly for Dad and Paul-I heard the new Star Trek movie is really good. So...Dad and/or Paul want to go see it in theatres then I wouldn't mind going with you when I get back. But if you all can't wait that long that's fine, too. I'll be home in a little less than 4 weeks.

Tired.
Hey everyone,
I made it back from Paris okay. It was very tiring especially since we had a party the night before we left for a Swiss and French girl who were done with their sememster and were going back home. It was about a three hour train ride there and we found our hotel just fine. We went to Notre Dame (it's like most of the cathedrals in France, nothing too special), Sacre Coeur (Sacred Heart), which was a neat church high on a hill, the Arc de Triomph, Eiffel Tower (we took the stairs to the second level and then you had to take an elevator all the way to the top), Pere Lachaise which is a cemetery with a lot of famous people like Oscar Wilde and Jim Morrison, La Defense which is the business district right outside of Paris. They had some tall and interesting looking buildings. It was kind of weird because we went on a Saturday and there were hardly any people around compared to NYC where there are always people everywhere. On Sunday, we went to the Louvre and saw the Mona Lisa and Venus de Milo and then we waited for our train in a cafe at the train station and birds would fly around inside and would come by and take your food if you weren't paying attention. I don't think I got any diseases from it though. All in all it was a pretty good trip.
I'm looking forward to seeing all of you when I get back. Talk to you later.
