À Bientôt

I'm off to Paris for a couple of nights from tomorrow morning. Very exciting.

Papa-Sunshine is taking me as a graduation present. The trip manages to kill 2 birds with 1 stone, as we can catch up with some family in Paris, but also enjoy ourselves. I'm bursting with excitement as my Dad has booked ticket to see the Ballet at the Palais Garnier... which is the opera house that the Phantom of the Opera story was based on. It's also one of the most beautiful buildings that I have ever seen. I was lucky enough to go on a tour while I was still at school, but I've never seen anything there before.

Being in Paris we'll also be able to get some good food, which is one of my favourite things about going to France. I guess it's because I've been brought up on French food, but there isn't much in my mind that beats it.

Today is being spent not only packing for Paris, but also packing another few bags of stuff to move home permanently. I'm really going to have to step up this moving stuff plan as even though I've had 3 trips home, it doesn't look like I've really moved anything at all. Clearly 6 years at uni has allowed me to accumulate far too much stuff.

I also need to pop to the post-office to send more eBayed bits and bobs. I'm really getting into eBaying my life away. I realise I'm not making much money from what I sell, but it's so much better than having it clogging up my room at home. I think when I get back from Paris I'll have another week of frantically eBaying stuff before I finally give up and either give the stuff to charity shops or take it home with me.
