my last days in Nice

so i just talked to erin on the phone during dinner. and i started crying. at the dinner table. with the 2 new girls, chris, and claire. erin left 2 days ago, on friday and i was fine until tonight. i miss nice even tho im still here. i miss everyone in our program who already left. i miss all my friends in the states, even tho ill be seeing them in 2 weeks. and i miss my family whose in barcelona until tmrw nite when ill pick them up from the airport. so this is how all the girls in my homestay felt when they had to leave. thank god for all my cp girls who are staying in Nice until the last day. ill miss them leaving Nice on thursday, but at least ill be staying w/my family in their hotel when i have to leave claire. this semester has been the most amazing 5 months of my life. and id love to do it again. too bad gemstone/my lack of finances won't let me. ive learned so much about french culture, the language, the people, living abroad, being independent, wandering around by myself in new cities, and just finding myself. i definitely want to come back and live in europe. not necessarily france, but perhaps germany?? i mean, im glad i came to france. i friggin lived on the french riviera for 5 months! but in terms of people, the french suck. especially the men. at least the ones ive seen on the cote d'azur, they have no sense of chivalry, let alone decency. and that was a huge understatement. the nicest guys ive met this whole semester are always american or canadian. anyways, enough complaining when i have my cp girls here. i love them to death-they know who they are. the maryland-in-nice group has been awesome. i wouldnt trade them for anyone.

so yea its my last week in nice and im depressed about leaving. were gonna have a crepe party, then go to happy hour in vieux nice tmrw to celebrate the end of an amazing semester. and then after dinner, im off to pick up my family from the airport!! hopefully ill be able to visit letzter on tuesday, cuz im gonna miss her a lot too. i wanna stay in europe!!

so for dinner, we had salad, and this squash/rice thing with little pieces of sausage in it. i ate a lot, but i was still hungry. but everyone else was done. and claire was clearing the plates. so i stopped eating. and now im hungry. its been an hour since dinner. the girls like dont eat veggies. and neither does chris. maybe ill go steal leftovers from the fridge, lol. and since i have no roomie to talk to anymore, im writing all this useless stuff on my blog.
