Not a person in sight.
Yesterday, I was wondering about going to Brussels or not. I finally decided to go, feeling a bit guilty about the decision because I had to do lots of stuff for school, but then things were eventually decided for me, and I had no choice but to accept. I couldn't join the JTAs because of the fancy thing called visa. Oh well, maybe I can go next time. It's lucky I escaped control the last time I went to La Panne in Belgium. At any rate, I didn't know we were going to Belgium at that time.
I hope my carte de sejour arrives soon. I'm raring to tour Europe! For now, I'm stuck here in the dorm. Not a soul in sight, and the only things I hear are the sounds of occasional vehicles passing by - so far off - so distant. I'm not sad or anything. The feeling of isolation is amusing to an extent. But I know I won't last a day staring at the wall or at my book, which I should be reading by now since my beloved teachers in Ateneo give me homeworks and exams with their warm wishes. (Note/Remarque in French[side side note: I might as well practice a bit French because I'm going to take DELF and I really want to learn.]: It might seem that I'm sarcastic in the previous sentence, but no, I really adore most of my teachers in Ateneo, save for a few who are... oh well...)
Anyway, I just remembered I borrowed books from the bibliotheque (without the proper e accent since I don't have a french keyboard and I'm too lazy to press the write stuff in my keyboard just to produce an e with an accent on top) which were, grr..., due yesterday... Oh well, I might drop by the bibliotheque later. I hope it is open. Perhaps I'll have a lovely chat with the librarian, who is really really kind. Or when I get too bored I'll just walk the streets of Lille.
