June 6, 2012

 Life has been super busy for me these past few weeks because of all the studying for the dreaded SAT test. I just finished taking it last Saturday and it was especially difficult because I had only slept three hours the previous night. Now I am glad that it is out of the way and all I can think about now is summer vacation.
The sluggish feeling of summer is starting to kick in and things are winding down as I'm finishing the last two weeks of school. It's crazy how fast the year went by, but at the same time it feels like ages since I last saw my friends back at home. I miss them a lot and I'm really looking forward to seeing them again in August.
My parents were just in New Zealand for two weeks and now they are leaving Australia after staying there for a day. So it's just been Luke and I here with the apartment all to ourselves for two weeks.
We have been exploring more of Paris during this time, frequently visiting the Louvre museum. Even though I have been here for almost a year I still have moments like today when I feel so fortunate to be able to live in Paris. The culture here is so different and foreign and it feels like I could live here all my life and still not fit in.
