So I failed.
Not a class. Not at getting to France. Not at even enjoying myself in said country. I failed at keeping a blog about my trip.
I have been here for a week plus a few days and have not yet done one blog entry. This is partly due to the fact that I have actually been insanely busy this past week: watching good movies, eating bread and cheese, not speaking French correctly, watching terrible movies, drinking espresso, falling asleep in movies, riding the train, waiting in line to watch good movies, waiting in line to watch bad movies, getting kicked out of a theater because I had on sandals, eating an entire pizza pizza by myself after having been kicked out of a theater because I was wearing sandals, hanging out with Tilda Swinton, trying to connect to the internet at our hotel, creepin' on celebrities, and begging for tickets to movies in the Lumiere theater.
Notice the verbs in that run-on sentence. I've essentially been doing a lot of watching, eating, drinking, and waiting. But it's been great. My favorite movies I have seen so far have been House of Tolerance, We Need to Talk About Kevin, Habemus Pappum, and the last 40 minutes of Restless.
The internet in our hotel is a bit sketchy on the fourth floor, but hopefully I will have time to blog in the upcoming days. I'm sure once the festival is over I will be insanely looking for things to do in order to get over post-festival depression.
