Go Ahead, Comment

I'm going to keep this short today because my post was super-long yesterday.  First day of electives was today, I only have one elective so my schedule for the first day shouldn't be too hectic. I was mistaken before, language placement exams will be the 27th of September.  However, we have all been attending one-on-one phonetic sessions and group phonetic sessions, to help us with our French pronunciation. I had my first one-on-one session today, I actually really liked it. It was extremely helpful. A lot of people came out of the room saying they really didn't like it.


I would also like to take a moment to address all of the comments I have received, because someone accused me of not reading them.  So: (1) Yes, it sucks that you did not fit in my carry-on but don't feel bad because no one else did either. (2) Yes, I have been using the ATM to get money, it's been working very well. Thank you for depositing some money into my account. (3) I know that I'm a typical American but sometimes you just have no choice (like peanuts on an airline. That's an obvious one, come on) and besides, I won't be back in the States for 4 more months. (4) I can't make orange chicken at home because I don't think they want me using their kitchen just yet but later I will ask them. (5) I don't know if I have people in France following my blog. Yes, I look at comments.


I have been trying to find something to add salt to at lunch every day.  I generally don't add salt or pepper to anything but the French don't add that stuff in the cooking process... And ever since I was throwing up Friday night (my mother thinks this was due to low sodium) I don't want to be sick again...  Although, I do currently have a very lovely cold. (My poor host family. They managed to get someone who is always full of problems. I was sick Friday night, then I got a cold, I'm having a bad allergic reaction on my wrist from my watch, which is sad because now I can't wear it anymore and I liked having a watch on...)


Edit: This is long too.....

  1. Once your allergic reaction has cleared up, you could try a piece of felt under the watch...either loose or attach it to the watch and trim so it's not too noticeable. And you could just comment back briefly in the comments. People who leave comments tend to read comments...........

  2. But that doesn't mean they always check back on previous things...

  3. Is there any way you could add a way to follow this blog via e-mail? Maybe Feedburner or something?

    Yes, I read the blog AND the comments.... :-)
