paris holds the key to my heart. like the disney song.

sooo. it is 730 pm in paris and i spent today at the rodin musuem, which omg i loved. the park was wonderful and i loved his work. after that i went to sacre coure, sacred heart the church, which was so pretty. found my new boyfriend. he gyrates to bad euro pop and did magic tricks in front of the church. its pretty much love. except not. then i took the underground to the eiffel tower and first stopped at a grocery store and bought picnic food and a tiny bottle of wine and sat in front of the eiffel tower. had some creepy french dude come sit next to me. he asked me if i had a "man friend" and the correct answer to that question by a man who cant speak your language and is drinking out of an almost empty tequila bottle is always yes. and the next question he asks after "manfriend" should not be, "want a massage?" and that was the moment i decided it was time to go back to the hostel. hahahahaa. oh goodness the french are fun.

but seriously.. i am loving paris. i got the underground thing pretty much down. its so easy and nice. about 5.80 euros for a day pass though. the dollar is killing me. slowly but surely.

yesterday i walked to notre dame, the line was crazy so i continued on to the louvre and had to stop at the pet store and look at the cutest little pug puppies... if only i had 1000 euros.. spent a few hours at the louvre and saw my favorite exhibitions (egyptians, sculptures and the napolian apartments, plus the mona lisa and paintings) then ate at some cafe.

it hasnt been as strange as i thought it would be, walking all around alone, but i do miss my cell phone. haha.

much love.

hello

Hello everyone. Its Jordan. this is the blog i will be using to update everyone on what im doing while out of the country. Im very excited and since i will have my laptop, camera and internet i should be able to post lots of entries to entertain you all.

I recently sent out all my student visa information to the study abroad group and am waiting for my passport and my new visa to return to me. It made me really nervous to send my passport via mail, but it is certified mail. hopefully i wont have any problems. mom bought me a money belt and plug converters this weekend. so.. thats two things off on my to do list... hahaha.

anyways.. i will probly do little updating posts in the months leading up to leaving too. but just wanted to make sure i found a blog that was good and easy to use.
