6 Days until Paris!

I really can't believe I am less than a week from going to France. Today is my last full day at home before I go to USC to spend some time with Zach, Wes and of course friends and Sarah :) I am trying to figure out how I am going to pack 4 months worth of stuff into one big suitcase, a carry-on and a personal item (bookbag.)
Everything for the most part is ready for me in Paris. I have an apartment with a really cool girl at USC named Adrianna on the border of the 11th/20th  arrondisement. Paris is divided into 20 districts
(arrondisements) and I am only about a 10 minute Metro ride to the university each day, which is in the 10th.

According to wikitravel, the 11th arrondisement is the edgy, ethnically diverse area of the city that houses sights such as the Place de la Bastille and its majestic modern operahouse. It's also a huge draw for students and fans of nightlife, offering a disproportionate number of the city's hippest bars and clubs.
I'm also very excited because I am literally a minute walk from the Edith Piaf Museum, one of my favorite French singers. (If you have never heard of her you should look her up.) Paris is one of the most expensive cities in Europe.... which means I pay double what I pay at USC for my apartment in Paris, which has 1 bedroom and  317 square feet for the whole apartment which is tiny! Oh well :)

I recieved my class schedule which I am very excited about as well because I got the 2 classes I needed to take in order to graduate in August according to plan. My class schedule is as follows:
Monday
Advanced French 8:30-11:30
International Marketing 4:30-7:30
Tuesday
Intercultural Studies 8:30-11:30
Wednesday
French Civilization 8:30-11:30
International Relations 11:30-2:30
I am very lucky to have a 4 day weekend every weekend, and I also have 3 out of my 5 classes with people that I have met from USC. Also, all my classes except my Advanced French will be in English. My French Civilization class is going to be awesome with lots of field trips around historical stuff in Paris :) I don't start classes until January 31st though and until then we have a 3 day orientation and spend some time getting used to my new home for the next 4 months!
