Waiting and Rambling.

I don't start class for another week. I'm bored.

Where I live is much like Oxford, but without the Walmart and without my car and without any good food to eat. There is, however, a bus that goes from my school to the city (30min) where I can go to a Carrefour (French Walmart). It's pretty lame. There is only one place near us, a sandwich place, whose food has been good, and luckily its across the street from our place, but they close around 1pm or something crazy like that. Maybe I'll lose weight this way, haha.
We went yesterday to Carrefour and took a shortcut, got lost, and then found the Fengjia night market again, looked around, and then went to Carrefour and then went home.

My apartment is really comfortable though. We've already used around US$10 of electricity in just 3 days, I think our fridge is old so it uses more energy. Our bed is amazing, I want to send it home after I'm done, but I don't know if I can.
So we're just sitting around sharing the internet, playing Farmville, and watching TV online.

Nick is now considering getting a Computer Science degree. I think that he is much more suited to a CS degree than an Accounting degree, and his friends are all going back to school so I think he's more motivated now. There's also only about 10 classes as pre-reqs for the Ole Miss CS masters degree, so that's much easier for him to do money-wise. Trent is going to get a Masters in CS, Steven is going to chef school, Patrick is going back as well but I don't know what for. I thought momentarily about trying CS out, but then realized that I would be surrounded by computer game kids. I can deal with Nick more or less being on the internet games, but to be surrounded by computer game kids/potential stalkers sounds awful. I'll stick with Accounting.
