My Third Full Week in France

This week has flown by just like all of the others and I fear that it will soon be May. :( Not that I don’t want to go home but I truly do love France and all of the amazing people here. I have friends from so many places all over the globe and they all have amazing stories to tell. And I hope that when I come home, I’ll be fluent in French. If not, I just may have to stay. :)
Monday was a resting day from our ski weekend. I can’t explain to you the amount of pain I was in but I used Monday to recover. A few advil and a lot of sleep can go a long way. :) Tuesday I had class but it was uneventful. Wednesday I had class from 2-8 PM and then decided that I wanted to stay in. On Thursday I had class and then met up with a group of people to have dinner. Jasper made a delicious soup and afterward, we all went to a bar in town. The bar turned out to be ridiculously expensive so I just got a strawberry water (some of the prices for alcoholic drinks were 8 euros and up). Friday night we all got together again and this time Jasper made tacos. Which were absolutely delicious and that’s saying a lot because I don’t normally like mexican food. :) Brae brought over playing cards, a regular deck and Phase 10, so that we could have a game night. But, it turns out, only Brae and I knew how to play Phase 10. So our game ended up being almost 4 hours long and we just gave up because no one was winning. I also found out that no one in our group knows how to play euchre. :( Which made me extremely sad because I love playing cards, especially games like euchre, club euchre, two-hand euchre, and oh hell. And since everyone was struggling to understand Phase 10, I think euchre might be beyond their means. :( After game night, we all headed back to our dorms to get some rest because on Saturday we decided we wanted to check out Marseille. 
More information and pictures will follow. :)
