Dorm Changes

As Christmas and Hanukkah approach, the commuter students at FHSG come to school less and less, thus leaving us non-American students. It's awesome really, as Nathalie and I love having the place to ourselves. D'accord, Megan and Rose join us for meals, but we don't really see much of them, even though Megan and Nathalie are cousins.

But Mlle Laurette says that, while FHSG is undergoing renovations, the dorms are closed, kicking us out to the curb. We are forced to stay in our commuter students' homes, which means that Nathalie and I won't be celebrating the holidays together. She's supposed to stay at Lindsey's house, while I think I'm going to go back to Maura's house (even though Maura is currently in London with a great aunt). So Christmas will be uno giorno tranquillo, a quiet day, (Did I mention that I study Italian?) with Maura's parents without even my best friend Nathalie!

I wish I could go back to visit my family over the holidays, but it's not possible this year. Je suis jalouse, I am jealous, of Rose because she says that she'll soon be visiting England over the break. Wish I could sneak on the plane with her!
