so much to do, so little time

The Ukranian girl came Sunday, and she gave me this really cool magnet that is made out of real grass, sticks, flowers, seeds, plants, etc. It is SO pretty! I cant wait to put it on my mini fridge :)

Since then, the days have been a blur of school work and working on the manyyy projects we have due for Business French. BLEH!

I did, however, get to catch part of the Tour de France on Tuesday after class, as it had passed through Montpellier that day. I wasn't too upset about having to miss most of it, because it will be ending in Paris at the end of the month when I am there with my mom!

On Wednesday, our classes were cancelled for our pre-planned trip to Arles to see a bullfight! It was SO interesting (I posted pics below). I also got to see where Van Gogh painted a lot of his pieces and even the hospital he went to after he cut off his ear :)

Wednesday night, after returning from Arles, the group went out to dinner for a girl in our group's birthday. We went to a creperie, where I ate a crepe that had ham, cheese, mushrooms, and RATATOUILLE! (I was think of the little rat movie when I hear that word) It was DELICIOUS! I then got a honey and almond crepe for dessert!

We have a few ideas for this weekend -- Toulouse, Marseille, Aigue-Mort, but we have not yet decided what we are gonna do...so many options!

I am sure that whatever we decide will be great and I'll end up posting tons of pictures after we go :)
