Well, that took longer than I thought it would....

I haven't written in almost year. At first, I thought that I would pick back up after my first semester of grad school had ended. Those first few months in Paris were filled with activity, new experience, shocking adjustments, and new friends. It was difficult to describe everything that was going on in my life, so I didn't. Then, I thought of maybe abandoning this blog, giving up on my attempt at documenting my life here in Paris and instead concentrating on staying connected to the people at home whom I have come to miss so much. Now, I've decided to make amends to my poor, long-neglected space. I have one more week of classes to go, so I really don't have an excuse not to write. In the coming days I hope to recap the past nine months to get myself back into the groove again.

I hope you won't be disappointed. I hope I'm not....
