One down...

Today my group and I gave our final presentation in France en Perspective. It was on nuclear energy in France and seemed to please our professor, Claude. This means FeP is essentially over: I'm going to go next week to listen to other presentations, and that's it. One class down, four to go. It's a shame, actually, because FeP is probably my favorite class here. Claude is funny and has an answer to all of our questions, and the class itself was really interesting without requiring too much work.

Otherwise not much news for you. The universities are still on strike here which poses yet another big problem: students who don't take exams this semester (ie. those at universities that are on strike) won't have passed this semester, and thus won't be eligible for the entirety of their scholarships in the fall semester.

Tomorrow the forecast high is 27ºC—a toasty 80ºF! I get to sleep in, too. Normally I have class at 9 a.m. on Wednesdays but, as was the case with a different class on Friday, my professor just won't be there tomorrow. I could learn to love the French school system...
