I can't even get over the extent to which it is unbelievably GORGEOUS here in Paris. The sun has been shining warmly for the past few days, and boy does it feel incredible. Today, a few co-workers and I went to a park just around the corner from the office to eat lunch. We bought tasty sandwiches at a quaint bakery, walked to the park, found a nice patch of grass, and chomped away. The sun felt so amazing on my face. Children were giggling and playing, runners were running, walkers were walking, and the grassy park lawn was littered with professionals (both young and old), students, and the rest. After devouring my delicious sangwich, I eased my back down to the ground, and let my face freckle in the sun.
Today, a different park awaits. I am meeting some of my friends that I know from back in Reims for lunch at the Jardin Tuileries. I can't wait to go outside- I'm like an anxious school child just before the bell rings for recess.
Other updates: I'm super proud of myself. Last week, my boss asked me, knowing that I have a little bit of experience in graphic design (but not really) to create a full page ad that calls readers to join a panel (of the magazine). I worked quite hard on it, finding photos and text, the right fonts and colors. Well, ladies and gents, my page is going to be published in the next issue! That means over 200,000 copies will float around Paris with my page in it. It's the first time that I have ever had anything published. Not too shabby for a girl who has never taken a graphic design course in her life, eh?
Hi-ho, hi-ho, it's back to work I go.
