Stupid Girl

I finished a painting on Sunday that I'm really happy with, and it looks pretty good, too. You'll have to just trust me on this. I can't post a picture of it because I can't hold my arms up long enough to take a picture. I will be making prints available in my Etsy shop soon, and it will most likely be this months giveaway. I could sell the actual painting, but I won't because I'm stupid and I refuse to fully participate in capitalism even if it would help pay my bills.

I had 2 classes today, and I'm loving Classics. There's no outside work, no reports, no nothing, you just show up to class and write the exams. That's my kind of education. If only learning French were so easy. Since we've moved here, I have managed to pick up one new word - "Prochaine" means 'next', and I only know that because of the metro announcements.
"Prochaine station Vendome" Using my awesome powers of deductive reasoning, I knew that "station" meant 'station' and Vendome is the Metro near us, so Prochaine must mean next. At this rate, I'll be bilingual in approximately.....never. Unless they turn the Metro into Sesame Street and start teaching me a word a day.
