The past two weeks have been a blur of french philosophers, timelines of the Middle East, Marc Chagall biographies, and histories of Ancient Rome. However, thanks to a steady stream of chocolate, I have made it through. This is a massive relief, but the terrifying result is that I have finished my third year of college, and I have less than a month (two weeks if we're being really honest) left in Paris. Let's not think about it.
Anyways, I have neglected my blog in favor of notes and chocolate bunnies, but now I am back, and I have a mishmash of photos for you.
Jelly-bean colored tulips that I brought home from the market last week.
Can you believe this? I rounded the corner, and there he was, all alone (his owner had run inside the Sorbonne), and barking up a storm. His owner came out a moment later, and they were off, down the Boulevard Saint Germain!
Taking a walk and a break in one of my favorite little gardens, just down the road from one of my favorite coffee places. It's all walled off, and for some reason there's always a policeman outside, but inside it's filled with little old french ladies and parents playing with their children. There's also a tiny veggie garden.
The gate to the tiny veggie garden!
Today I took myself to lunch at Bob's Kitchen, and then wandered around the Pompidou area for a bit. The street art's amazing over there. Feels like it's spilled right out of the museum.
I'm not sure who that guy above is, but last semester I was in class with someone who looked just like him!!
The most beautiful travel books you ever did see.
