-foreign languages. so confusing to know what is going on.
-commuting to school. 10 min walk to the metro station, then a 20 min ride and another 10 walk from the station to school.
-the dirty euro. why did it have to go down 30 cents and be at an all time low when i’m leaving europe.
-prices in the city. urban life usually is expensive and paris is one of the more pricier cities in europe.
-gypsies. enough said.
-not having a studio as an arch student. its sucks not having work space to build a model or people around to bounce ideas off of.
-my tiny apartment. i have to go to the hallway to use the toilet. i’ve been locked out once.
-tourists. they just flock the city and didnt have to deal with our harsh winter and get to enjoy this perfect little paris. and they make lines at museums unbearable.
-overpriced fast food. now i know i shouldn’t be going to mcdonalds or kfc, but when you need something quick it should be cheap. where’s the euro menu? i think since it’s an import, its overpriced.
-french administrative processes. no more hopping office to office and waiting for mail to come to sign and send back.
-bars/clubs. overpriced and painfully awkward. let’s some house parties. apartment parties are too small.
-dog poo. not many people clean up.
-cigarettes. everyone and their mother smokes.
-classes in french. “i think i get it. wait, what?”
-homework in french. i sucks when you’re done and then you have to spend an hour translating.
-lack of sports. there’s only soccer here, ugh. and i have to stay up till 5am watching my teams. double ugh.
Alaska told me about the cigarettes when she came back from Barcelona. Ughhh I’m not ready to be a second-hand smoker.
But I think I’m gonna like the “dirty euro” ha
