Since I know I havent posted in a while, here is a quick recap of my last few weeks in Nice
a) Move into an apt/ cook for myself and subsequently starve to death/ learn I live next door to a bakery
b) Final exams/ cramming/ no sleep/ cranky
c) Vacation starts/ Everyone leaves me for the U.S./ sad- no longer popular
d) Happiness returns when I remember that I'm still in the south of France and can go to the beach
e) Passed my exams/ remember how to breath/ Brami thinks I am less of an idiot
f) Trying to get a new visa/ death to all french bureaucrats/ will never complain about DMV ever again!
g) New Maryland students arrive/ I have friends again
h) Spent all my money on tickets to Greece then find out Su and Doris are going to be in Holland
i) Learn of a Chipotle location in Paris/ tentative plans to make a pilgrimage are formed
So as you can see it was definitely an emotional roller coaster to say the least; one might even venture to say an emotional Himalayan mining haulage car ride. But, I count my blessings, or more specifically, the number of pains au chocolat I eat in a day, or even more specifically 5, give or take.
I will now post a lovely melange of photos taken from a variety of places...will explain as we go on.
I believe this is the first time I am actually posting picture of any friends I have in Nice, so you can believe me now when I say that I have friends.

| Dinghies (who knew that was the plural form) in the port. |

| More Dinghies, this time at more of an angle. |
 |
| Cheers to Marc, man of the hour. You will be missed R.I.P.(I.A.) (rest in peace in America) |
 |
| The Goodbye Party |
 |
| My new favorite meal/ the only meal I can make |
So wish me luck as I venture out of France for the first time since arriving in September! Will post pictures of the Pope's golden toilet as soon as I can infiltrate his secret lair!
