Sunday, February 27th, I went with Beke and two of the other German au pairs, Pia and Julia (Julia is actually Austrian), to Nice for CARNAVAL! It was really cold but thankfully it didn't rain. We actually ended up leaving early because of how cold it was, not to mention, the parade was really long. But it was a lot of fun, and actually got me really excited about Tulane again. While we were there, the other girls were blabbing on in German, and I developed a whole new life plan.
In other news, Beke leaves today and I will be moving down to the main house shortly. I have to get the apartment all cleaned up. I wonder if they brought the car down or if I will have to go up to the house to get it. Hmmmm, I'll have a look in a bit. I'm all packed (if you can call it that- I basically just threw all my dirty clothes, which is all my clothes, into my suit case without folding them and then put everything else in boxes. I've been really excited all weekend but now I am a little nervous. I know it will be fine, but it's just another adjustment that I am going to have to make. Granted, I think this one will be a lot easier. Now that I know how to drive (I drove to Nice on Sunday by the way), getting around and doing things on my own, of my own accord, will be wonderful. I'm already planning what I am going to do everyday next week once the kids are back in school.
