It has been quite an exciting couple of weeks. After returning from spring break, We all settled in to finish out the semester. On Sunday, I ran the half marathon here in Aix-en-Provence. It was my very first ever, and I finished just under my goal of two hours with a time of 1:59.38. Needless to say, I was pretty proud of myself. It was a great way to spend my last full weekend here in France. It has been a beautiful past couple of days. Sunny and in the high 70's each day. My last classes were on Monday, and we received today off in order to study for exams, which start tomorrow. I have only five, and one of them is a take home paper. They shouldn't be too difficult. I've started packing my things up to leave on Sunday. It's very sad, but exciting too. I am going to miss so much about this place. I can't wait to see all my friends and family. It's all bitter sweet.
