I realized I haven't really let you guys know what my living quarters are like. Well! I'm in what's called Foyer Tolbiac, address is 234 (I think) rue de Tolbiac, 13th district, Paris, France. I have a room mate who is about 24. She's originally from Lebanon, but she's lived in France for around 2 years I believe. She's really nice and knows English really well, so when I get home and my head is way too crammed with French to function, we can speak in English together. She's gone a lot because she works and she's also in a choir since she wants to be a professional opera type singer some day. She sings when she gets ready for bed and it's really pretty.

The dorm is kind of modern 70s looking on the outside, but most of the buildings around it are really pretty. The rue Tolbiac is very cute and has a lot of cafes and supermarket type stores in the area. The China Town area of Paris is East of my foyer down Tolbiac a little bit. I've eaten at 2 Chinese places already and they've been wonderful!
