Well, I have finished classes for the week and now I only
have my internship tomorrow morning between me and my two-week Winter Vacation. Today I tried to print off my hotel reservations
and other confirmation related paperwork, but the macs at the bureau decided
that the unzipped files on my flashdrive were in fact zipped, even though I had
never zipped them and the day before they had been unzipped on the same device
plugged into the same computer.
Furthermore, as I did not have administrator access to the computers, I could
not open my own files. Plugging the
drive back into my windows laptop, I confirmed what I had suspected: my files
were unzipped and that Apple is out to get me for blaspheming against Steve
Jobs. I will try again tomorrow.
Speaking of tomorrow, I will be going to see a Tchaikovsky concert
at the opera house in the Corum with my host brother. So I am looking forward to that. In the span of time between my internship and
that, I will be packing everything that I will need to take on my vacation with
me. My first stop is Paris, so look for some
more interesting blog posts to come that are more than just my inane drivel
about quotidian Nick.
I do have to add that tonight’s dinner was amazing. We were joined by my host-sister Marie again
and her boyfriend and my other host-sister’s boyfriend. We had a great sausage/cabbage/vegetable dish
for the main course. For dessert, we had
a deliciousness-threshold-shattering dish that was a combination of dark-chocolate
truffle and macaroons swimming in a cream.
I almost started weeping for joy upon my first taste.
