Let me explain: I am searching for apartments in Paris, and so far, RIEN! We are trying to find housing that accomodates 3 people, in 3 separate beds, for under 2000 euro a month, in the city of lights. Impossible, it seems. Looks like the couch/floor/tub for me. While I did sign up for the experience of studying abroad, I did not sign up for this - it is so frustrating, and the most annoying part is that the IE office has not done ANYTHING to help us.
What gets me really worked up is the fact that the kids that go to Italy get an apartment in Alba and FOOD TICKETS!! THEY DON'T EVEN HAVE TO PAY FOR THEIR OWN ALCOHOL! Are you kidding me!? And me, I'm going to be paying thousands of dollars for an apartment, food (I'll be living off of bread, cheese, and wine for a semester), electricity, internet, etc. along with books, living expenses, insurance, train fare, gym membership, etc. Fuck this.
Pardon my French.

It's easy - don't go to the gym. Do the French go to the gym? No. They are lazy people )no offense). Don't be the American in their midst who's always trying to be this ideal-looking broad.
ReplyDeleteIf you do anything, and that's a very laxed term, just run through the streets of Paris. You'll also get more looks of adoration that way, too.
