#erasmus semester

[travelstudyeat]

My class isn’t where it should be. I did not receive any email. The secretary isn’t working on Wednesday afternoons and nobody else has information. I just opended the door to every bigger room here and there isn’t a trace of my prof, the approximately 100 people in that class or any person knowing what is going on.

The only positive thing is that I talked to more french people in the last half hour than in the last week.

I have arrived and did a lot of paperwork for the student housing, the language course and of course the university.

I somehow feel good (honestly who hasn’t dreamed of moving to France) and completely awful at the same time. The longer I am here, the more I seem to forget the language. People talk to me and I stare at them like a deer in headlights; my mind completely blank.

Even though it’s Monday my courses won’t start before tomorrow. And again I’m terrified and excited at the same time. Like butterflies in the stomach but they’re caught in a hurricane.

I’m anxious but super excited at the same time?? Like “It’ll be horrible, I’m not good enough” but at the same time there is a “Everything will be fine, you’re not the first person to do this!”

Semester abroad

Superlate I got my confirmation for the Erasmus-Semester I applied for! I honestly thought it was gone because my coordinator didn’t even confirm getting my application and me being me, I was super late and just went with the “rejection”.

But now I’ll study in France (knock on wood!) starting January. I’m just really nervous about forgetting something important and ruining it. But I also am excited and afraid. Ahh!!!
