trip soon
I haven't posted in a while simply because... there is nothing going on. Truly. I have just been working a lot at my boring job, lazing around & reading, and occasionally seeing friends if we miraculously have the same day off. I'm a bit disgusted by how lazy this summer has been. I can't wait to go back to school so I can actually do non-boring things, look for an internship, and such.
But in the meanwhile, the highlight of this summer is approaching: at the end of July, I'm going to Quebec City for a week with my parents and my best friend Nikki. We're renting two apartments in a centuries-old building in the old city, one for my parents and one for me & Nikki. I've been twice before and it's one of my favorite places. We'll stroll around the cobblestone streets and drink hot chocolate and eat croissants at tiny cafés, have dinner (and crepes for dessert of course) at restaurants with outdoor tables that overlook the lamplit street, check out the adorable French boys who drive the horsedrawn carriages (last time Nikki voted carriage #24 as the cutest, haha), walk down sun-drenches streets filled with color and browse shops... I haven't gone anywhere in ages so I can't wait for this trip. I'm also looking forward to being able to talk to people in French, since I'm much better at it than the last time we went when I was sixteen. Yay!
