Journee 2

So today was my second day in Angers. I got to sleep in a little bit which was nice. The homesickness set in a tad bit last night but after talking to my roommates and my parents it got a lot better! Its weird being the only student in the house, since I think most everyone else is with another foreign student. So there have been times when it gets a little lonely.

I'm still working on adjusting to the food difference. Tonight is the last night that I've paid for meals for the week (I receive 3 dinners a week, and breakfast everyday). So I went to the closest grocery store with is kinda on my way back from the university. But I looked around and bought a few apples and some cookies to snack on, but I think I can find things to make pretty easily everyday. It'll probably go there everyday and just pick up something small for dinner and eat lunch at the university restaurant.

Its actually kinda funny because i find that I'm starting to think in French a little bit. Although I'm quite far from fluent and I can talk many times without having to think, and I don't really ever translate things in my head. I can just hear them and understand. Its a nice feeling. I'm looking forward to classes. And I'm slowing getting more confident with my speaking capabilities.

The weather here is interesting. It tends to rain a lot over night but then be fairly clear for most of the day. Its cloudy off and on, but overall its been nice weather.

I put pictures of the town on facebook. this link should work :
