Hey guys, I'm Katie! Welcome to my blog, where I ramble on about anything and everything. I'm 21 years old, a rising senior at Boston College and am pursuing a major in International Studies and a minor in French. I just returned from studying abroad at Sciences Po in Paris, so most of the entries from the past five months consist of my cultural experiences, my passionate love affair with French food, my close encounters of the third wine, and my ramblings about crazy French people. I love photography, traveling, reading, and cooking. I love all kinds of music; check out what I'm listening to at last.fm. I also enjoy a good tweet now and again. Check out some more random facts about me, if you're so inclined...
Un jour ennuyeux
Ahhh, another enthralling day on my big, red, Buddha couch in an effort to recover completely from this stomach bug.
Although I didn’t do anything too exciting, I did spend a few hours uploading and editing my pictures from Belgium, which are up on my Facebook! I can’t believe it took as long as it did, but it’s tough going through 530 photos and picking the best ones. I also spent a while going through my messages and wall posts and answering people that I should have answered days (if not weeks) ago…so I’m just going to apologize for the absurd amount of times I have probably popped up on your newsfeeds this evening.
I also finally managed to upload the pictures from the National Archives trip I took a couple weeks ago. Although I inserted them in the original post (dated February 5th, if you want to read it), I’ll put them here too (since I’m going to assume the majority of you are too lazy to spare a few extra clicks). Although I’m not sure which documents are which, here are two of them.
ABOVE: one of the oldest documents of France’s Third Republic, from the time of King Louis XIV.
BELOW: I think it’s the Declaration of the Rights of Man and Citizen…not sure though.
Even if I’m mistaken, both are awesome, and I’m still so psyched that I got to see them! And that’s that. I also added some pics to the Belgium posts below, but if we’re friends on Facebook, you’ve probably seen them; I just wanted to add some eye candy.
Alright, well I’m going to go watch a movie (or something that at least seems a bit more productive…?). Bon weekend!
