Ça va?

Well it is a beautiful sunny day here in Rennes, France, albeit a tad bit chilly. I have had quite the busy week here in Rennes! It has been on of the best weeks here, however, if not the best. It all started with Tuesday night, we went to see a play at the TNB, theatre national de bretagne. We saw this funny, quirky, French comedy called Les Fourberies de Scapin. Even though it was a little difficult to understand everything, I could comprehend the general story line. After that we went over to my friend Adelle's apartment, she lives on the top floor of an apartment, right smack dab in the center of town, lucky girl. The entire evening was spent drinking wine, having great discussions among friends, and joking around and learning some new French. And then the next night, Saint Patty's Day!!!, I went with my house mother to see one of her friends sing in a cafe. Her singing group performed this amazing collection of African, French, and Celtic songs. After that came the Irish celebration! People were lining the streets and it almost resembled our Scranton celebration, almost. Oh, and also, one of my house mother's friends told me that I speak very good French, tres agreable! It quite possibly, made my life!!!!! But, I have to be honest, I was having some difficulties here in France. I couldn't stop thinking about home! After this week, I can't imagine leaving!! I love speaking french, I am learning to live in the moment here and appreciate my host family and I have met the most amazing people here. And of course, now I have the travel bug and with the arrival of spring I can not wait to see the rest of France! Well, I must be off now. Miro, the student who was living with the Truberts last semester is in town with her mom and we are going to visit le centre ville and have a nice french lunch!
