Dear world,

Things that are new in my life:

As of Friday:
- I got to see Sarah, a student from Smith who lived with my host family two years ago. She came over for dinner.
- We had a raclette!
- I tried to work on my research on this guy. No one knows who he is. Proving to be a difficult guy to track down. (Just trying to prove a point. The French know who he is, at least.)

As of Saturday:
- I learned how to make a chocolate cake with Elise and my host mom! We made it together, and Elise reminded me of me when I was little. And now. My mom still needs to get those last few stirs in, just to make sure everything's mixed. Hehe.
- I went to another dinner party! I love France.
- I met new people from Sciences Po.
- I came back home and left a note that said "Fur Elise" with a left over piece of cake.
- I did more research.

As of today:
- Went to the Louvre. Want to go back again all the time just to study. It was wonderful.
- Did more researching. Finally got a general "plan" together. Will finish tomorrow.
