Classes started yesterday, and I was placed in Group 4, which is the highest possible group to place in. Woohoo! I have a lot of friends in that class, too, which is great.
We did a dictee after introducing ourselves and read a short Jacques Prevert poem, <
Also received my last box, which had all my dictionaries and things from Kelly. Also got my luggage - turns out it was in the front office, and no one had told anyone else about its arrival... I was asking the wrong people! So, I now have belts (from the luggage), a bath towel (same), and Kelly's pillow! What more could a guy ask for on his birthday! I'm very happy with the goodies. No more boxes to wait on!
Also got a really sweet card from my mom wishing me a happy birthday - it was handed to me in the middle of a big lecture and everyone was super jealous hahahah.
I also got a cell phone yesterday! The number (with country code in parentheses) is: (033) 06 45 66 00 39. It costs a lot to call the US from the phone, so I'll probably just stick to local calls. On the other hand, all received calls and texts are FREE regardless of where they come from. So, feel free to drop me a line!!!
Am hurrying off to class right now... trying to think of what I'd like to do for my birthday!
Until Next time,
Ben

ben - that is so cool you got in the highest group and not a bit surprising because you rock at this whole French thing...
very proud of you -- and HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!!! M.
congratulations and happy birthday again! so now we know that your favorite presents are clothes, especially when you don't have them... they may still expect you to wear your pyjamas for presentations.
love,
dad
