Well, I'm definitely not going to France. I'm not really ready to set foot off the continent just yet. This being said, I was a little bummed out because I wanted to go somewhere outside of the U.S. for once in my younger years. I suddenly wanted something I couldn't have really, since Madame basically said there would be no trip due to some complications. She seemed quite sad about it. I went to her office afterwards and she asked me how I felt about taking my French one step further. If I really wanted to go somewhere with a French atmosphere, she said I could take this summer course offered in Quebec for five weeks with the same amount of money I would spend in France for one week. It would be an intensive study in the language--a social study because I will be using it in a very natural environment.
She told me that it didn't matter when I travelled should I actually decide to do this, but passports were usually a good thing to get anyways. She gave me a ride to the courthouse and we picked up the paperwork. I wasn't aware I could get my passport here in Wayne. Strange.
So. . . Quebec. That sounds fun. My parents were thinking of letting me travel to Canada anyways because I was feeling a bit down, and this is the perfect opportunity. The only thing I'm semi-worried about is the idea that class would start two days after I graduate from Wayne [June 7th]. I'd have to jump onto a plane right away and that's pretty stressful. Madame's sister lives in Quebec City near the college and I would be able to stay with her if I wanted to save the dorm money. I'm just a little curious to see if I will take my computer. It is special to me and I'd like to not be without it.
I think I'm going to Quebec.
