One Week Left

Hi all!

It’s funny how I feel as if I only just wrote an entry entitled “one week in” and now I’m writing this one! It’s amazing how everything is moving faster now that the year is coming to a close. With the increasingly beautiful weather, the dwindling number of exams and the slow realization that a year’s worth of accumulated souvenirs and clothing will not fit into one suitcase, I’m starting to that it really has come to that point where I say goodbye to Dijon. Even in performing some of the most mundane activities, I find myself wondering whether or not I will buy soap in Monoprix again, or if I will ever get another warm pain au chocolat on the way to class (I don’t think I’ll ever break that tradition actually). As of right now, I still am occupied by schoolwork, drudging through the last of my exams next week. Despite the time spent studying, I think next week will serve as a great opportunity to see those last few things that I’ve yet to see in Dijon and its surroundings. Luckily, I can finally walk (without getting lost) pretty much anywhere in this small city–I remember the first couple of weeks when I felt like I needed to take the tram everywhere!

Although I’m excited to enjoy my last week in France, I can’t help but feel excited to go home! I found out I’m living in Figge next year, going to Haiti on international immersion and working as a Fall Orientation Leader in August, all of which were goals for my senior year and I can’t wait to start. As for right now though, I guess Dijon isn’t too bad…

À la prochaine,

Thomas

Can’t argue with French café culture
