Given the assumption that everyone on this campus cares about presentability, although in varying degrees, only three types of students are lucky enough to be spared from the tedious chore of laundry - those who have purchased the E&R laundry services, those who that bring their dirty clothes home or wait for their parents to visit, and finally those who own a department store collection of clothes, that is also fully replenished before the onset of a new season.

Though my French is far from fluent, and France is all the way across the Atlantic, I could find no other reason not to seize this fabulous opportunity.
0 CommentsMy first week in my homestay, a.k.a. home of the Adrian@s*, was interesting to the say the least. Since I couldn't remember any Spanish (thanks to a brain-cell-unfriendly summer on Nantucket), I essentially mimed my way through week one. I also made sure to avoid meeting anyone who was born in Spain, due to the imminent dos besos - the double cheek kiss.
0 CommentsDear Dr. Trincest, A few weeks ago, I met a guy here and we really hit it off. We hung out the next weekend and during the week. It seemed like it was going well. So, over Thanksgiving Break, I texted him a couple times to try to keep in touch, but he didn't respond to me.
