im poor

Ok so paris is really really really expensive. It really sucks, I have run out of money and am now relying on my credit card. I have like 15 euros for the next 4 days. I can use my credit card at most places though. I wish that I wouldnt have spent so much money in the beginning and spend it out. I went out alot the first week, and to go out to dinner here costs like 15-20 euro. But oh well. I am excited to get back home. I cant wait to have my own apartment again. I miss being able to

just lay on my couch and watch a movie. That is impossible here. The only english channel we have in our rooms is CNN. We had mtv until june 1st when i found out that our hotel was too cheap to keep the channel. If anyone wants to check out what my hotel looks like, here is the site:

I dont mind it, we are located right next to IES so I dont have to walk far to class. I also really like being in Montparnasse. It is not super touristy so the prices for food are normal. I went to a restaurant next to notre dame and my pop was more expensive than my bowl of french onion soup. Yesterday I went to the middle ages museum. It was pretty cool. It wasnt too crowded so I got to see everything. I saw the famous lady with a unicorn tapestry, which was really pretty. For dinner I went cheap and bought some stuff at the monoprix. It ended up being not so cheap, but I used my credit card so oh well. It was super good though. I bought a baguette which is a long skinny loaf of bread, a package of smoked ham, a package of salami, and a package of cheese. I also bought a coke. The grand total was about 11 dollars. It was really good though, the salami was like the best i have ever had. I didnt do much last night we have a paper due tomorrow in class, so I am going to work more on that today.
