Seasons Greetings!

Even though the season is almost over, I fondly wish you happy holidays and a bountiful New Year!

So. . .I've sort of calmed down about moving to Paris. It's still something that I want to do, but the right opportunity just hasn't presented itself. So, I'm not going to stress about it. I know that I will be in Paris when the time is right. Whether that's 2009 or later, I don't know. But I will be there.

Right now, I'm focussed on finishing school and moving on to the next phase of my life ie being employed! Yeah baby! I realized that working=disposable income which means more travel! My list of destinations I want to visit is rapidly increasing, so I need to get on with working.

Today I was in Barnes and Noble and came across Sparknotes cards with French vocab on them. They also had a set with grammar. I was highly tempted to purchase the 1000 card vocab set because I've tried to make flashcards with new mots on them, but it's hella time consuming. The cards only cost $9.95. I'm trying not to impulse buy as much so I decided to come home and think about it.

I'm thinking about doing a one week language immersion course in maybe Montreal which would be easier to get to than Paris. I'm looking into Alliance Francais to see what courses they might have there.

So, what are your aspirations and plans for the new year? Mine? To travel a bit this year, reclaim some sort of social life, and get my "real" life going.
