woke up to the sound of my host-dad laughing uncontrollably. went into the living room, found that the source was the french version of “funniest home videos.” bonded over dogs falling into fishtanks, etc. took my first shit in france, sans fan. awkward. explored my neighborhood a bit, bought some coffee at a swanky place and got my first “you speak english?” :( ah well. meeting my host-bro tonight, kinda nervous. missing american-style showers, a lot. le sigh. tomorrow school starts. uhmmmm. yep.
