It has been a slow and troublesome week – starting with my iPod and bathtub incident. Ugh! Anyway, it’s all OK now. I learned my lesson now that water and electronic products don’t match. I was able to get a replacement from the submerged one to a new one. Don’t ask me how.
My carte de sejour still is not here. I got a letter from the sous-prefecture of Haguenau to get a convocation copy. Apparently, the doctor who was on my visite medical failed to tell me that having an expired recipisse can get me on a plane back to the Philippines. My bf’s mom handled everything because I was in Paris and I didn’t want to take another holiday. After my medical visit, I went straight home instead of passing by the prefecture (doctor’s orders) – and I should have passed by to renew my recipisse. According to the doctor, it’s not a big deal to have an expired one. Hmmm, but I have one now again until May 2009 while waiting for the actual CDS. Goooshhh what a long wait. I can’t wait to go to Barcelona. But maybe it’s a good time to wait now while winter time. Still, it’s frustrating – my bf’s dad bought us tickets to a spa in Baden Baden, Germany – like those outdoor spas you see in movies like Hostel 2. My feet are itching to travel.
I wanted to post up photos of the automobile museum in Mulhouse, but I don’t know where I put my memory card that contains these photos. It’s just there somewhere and as soon as I find it, I will put up pics of beautiful Bugatti models and old model vehicles used since the first one.
That’s all for now. Nothing much happened – my French has progressed nicely with the help of Japanese manga translated in French (Love Hina) – but according to my boyfriend, I now speak like a 14 year old French kid.
