Happy March, friends. One month in and the fun continues. It's interesting, I can feel myself getting more and more comfortable in a different country, but at the same time there are definitely things that I miss about the US. Today I went shopping (the window kind, really) on the rue d'antibes, which is Cannes famous shopping boulevard, and found that my favorite store amongst them all was espirit. hmmm, not exactly stretching there when it comes to trying to be très françaises et très chic. oh well, they had my size and some really cool stuff. Apparently when I was packing, I was sure it was freezing here, so I packed about 3 warm weather shirts. I have found, it is not, in fact, freezing here and that, come summertime, I'm going to be warm and toasty. Oh well, ce n'est pas grave. In general, when you try to fit your life into one suitcase, you are bound to get tired of wearing the same stuff all the time. Pretty much everyone here feels that way at this point.
Went to the theatre again the other night. It was a really strange dance performance that was supposed to be an "around the world" theme, but was actually a lot of the same type of dancing in different costumes that were sort of "around the world-esque." Oh well, it was part of the program, so I didn't have to pay for it. That, and I managed to get in on the crepe soirée that was at the collège au meme temp, which was pretty sweet.

Buy something to wear. I think that is why you got so many $ gifts. None of us want you to represent us by being a sweaty American in ugly clothing. Don't go ROSE on us. BUY SOMETHING TO WEAR, BE CUTE!
Love you,Mom
I'm excited to see your new clothes - and make sure to get something really 'FRENCH' (I don't know what that means, haha, but I'm sure you probably do more than I would anyways.)
oh, and random thing I told Anna about too: At the Walnut/Center intersection right by the dorms, there's a STOP LIGHT now! So strange! I'm not sure how I feel about having to stop and wait there... hmm... might have to find alternate routes ;)
