Home Away from Home?

So I got my housing assignment today... and I got assigned to a dorm! I guess bitching and moaning until you get what you want really works, since not only did I e-mail and call API, but I had my dad e-mail and call them, and I filled out the housing request form pretty much demanding a dorm room and saying that I am allergic to everything and would cry myself to sleep every night if I had to live with a family. It's called persistence.

In other news, I took a diagnostic test today and got a 52%. Yeah that's an F. I guess I need to brush up on my French a little bit... Luckily it doesn't count for placement, but I really have to get back into the swing of French if I want to place in an appropriate level class! Unfortunately I didn't plan very well and I didn't take any French classes last semester so I'm a little rusty.

It occurred to me today when I got my housing assignment that this is really happening...and soon! I'm definitely starting to get nervous.

The countdown begins!

After a couple of last minute requests from API for documents, I e-mailed them asking if there was anything else that I needed to submit. And they returned my e-mail saying that I was all set. All set. Like I have everything submitted to them. Like I don't need to make random trips to get things copied or signed or notarized and send them next day to API because I didn't know that I needed them. Like they have everything they need from me. As long as all set means the same thing to API as it does to me, I am completely logistically ready to go to France. (Note that I said logistically. Mentally and physically I still have a ways to go.)

So in 24 days I will be on a flight to France. Holy merde.
