Though, that means I will be coming home in exactly a month! As much as I love Paris and Europe in general... I miss home. I miss knowing where things are and not having a language barrier and being able to buy whatever I want because I have plenty of room and won't have to transport it in a suitcase. I miss normal shower heads that aren't detachable and having a front lawn and hot weather (I know you're all complaining back home about how hot it is, but I have been wearing long sleeves and/or jackets since I got here because it hasn't topped 75, okay? I want summer!). I want to see my family and my dog and my boyfriend and my room and all my clothes back home (I do actually have a full wardrobe, right?). I miss salespeople who smile and being able to find what I want in the grocery store (I went looking for Wheat Thins the other day, or the equivalent... nope. Only cookies).
In other news, I made a giant list of things I want to see in Paris while I'm here. Some things have already been done so they aren't on the list anymore (like Disney Paris) and others have been seen but I haven't done everything related to it that I wanted (like the Eiffel Tower- saw it, but I want to go up it again). Here it is:
