Today will be easy to write about because I didn't have any plans to leave the house. I started my day off late and slept until about 11 AM. I woke up and went downstairs to eat my usual breakfast of cornflakes, coffee and a brioche. After eating, I watched an episode of the Sopranos.... Continue Reading →
Crocos and Tacos-Day 32- February 10th, 2018
Today was one my first days in Grenoble where I had nothing planned. Well that's technically a lie, I had to go the gym before it closed at 1 PM. But besides that, absolutely nothing. I was so set on doing nothing, that I didn't even set an alarm for this morning. In French culture... Continue Reading →
Will Clark: Hero and Catcher of Old Ladies-Day 31- February 9th, 2018
Seven and a half hours of class on Friday just plain sucks, but it sucks a little less when your 8 AM is cancelled. I enjoyed an extra hour and a half of sleep this morning, and headed to school to start my day. I had an odd situation happen on the tram the past... Continue Reading →
Barberousse and Chartreuse-Day 30-February 8th, 2018
Despite, only going to bed at twelve last night, I felt pretty tired this morning getting up at 8:30. Today wouldn't be that bad though, my usual three hour circuits lab was cancelled. I just had three hours of math and French to get through. Depending on your definition of a month, today marks my... Continue Reading →
Wow I didn’t know Grenoble hosted the Olympics-Day 29- February 7th, 2018
I woke up today around 9 AM feeling very awake. I had French class at 1:30, and we were going to a museum today. I was determined to go to the gym, finish a blog post, and watch an episode of the Sopranos before that. I went downstairs in my gym attire and ate breakfast.... Continue Reading →
Grenoble Peaked in 1968-Day 28-February 6th, 2018
I woke up around 9 AM with plans to start my day productively at the gym. I snoozed my alarm for about two hours and that gym thing didn't end up happening. I spent sometime typing up my blogs this mornings, as well as having my usual breakfast and coffee. I chilled out for a... Continue Reading →
Canadian Beer Pong is Wack-Day 27-February 5th, 2018
I woke up around 8 AM and immediately checked who won the super bowl. To my delight, the Eagles had won and I spent about fifteen minutes watching highlights on my phone and funny commercials. I thought this one was particularly funny. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=doP7xKdGOKs When I went downstairs to eat breakfast, I was surprised to see... Continue Reading →
Subway Still Sucks in France-Day 26- February 4th, 2018
The hotel called with a wake-up call at 7:45 AM and it was the last thing I wanted to hear. I set a timer for twenty minutes and went back to bed. We had to have eaten breakfast and be ready to leave by 9:15. Considering I had gone to bed at 3 AM, this... Continue Reading →
Lyon and Le Pen-Day 26- February 3rd, 2018
Getting up at 6:30 this morning made me glad not to have gone out the night before. I had packed my backpack last night, so I wasn’t in too much of a rush this morning. After packing way too much stuff for my Paris trip, I was trying to bring as little as possible. The... Continue Reading →
Crepe Day- Day 25-February 2nd, 2017
My morning started at 6:35 AM, as I woke up fifteen earlier than normal. This was part of my continuous plan to make my mornings less hectic. This is somewhat ironic because the French are known for being late to everything. I had to pack a lot of extra things in my backpack today like... Continue Reading →
