Drive-By Post Before I Vanish To Do Laundry

Someone online mentioned a Beauty & The Beast Castle that I need to go see while I'm in France. Is this ringing anyone's bells?

Also...

-What does Gojyo's shampoo smell like? I assume, with his hair, he probably using something fairly quality, but I can't think of what. I'm tempted to go with Tea Tree Oil Shampoo, which smells minty and green and tingles pleasantly, but since that's what I use, I'm not sure it's allowed.

-During the summer [profile] pzb, my mother, possibly [profile] renegadekitsuneand I had a conversation about the ikkou's musical taste, which is notable for the way every single person said immediately, 'Gojyo listens to rock.' Which is kind of a gimme, but still, aren't we sympathico? So my question is, what are the ikkou's musical guilty pleasures? What is the music that Gojyo plays that Hakkai actually likes? For Gojyo himself, I think he wouldn't admit to liking Ray Lamontagne, but would because that artist  has this wonderful sense of romance combined with the doubt that love even exists. (Go listen to "Jolene" - it's gorgeous and totally on my 'Forget Me Not' playlist, and only [personal profile] smillaraaqis going to know what that means.) 

Also, I went to Giverny today, which is where Monet painted and it was utterly gorgeous and so, so peaceful, I just wanted to stay there listening to music and looking at the flowers, in this lovely, hazy misty morning, with a truly lovely dove-gray sky and the birds chirping.

What was less fun was that while I was walking to Monet's house I had my head turned and walked straight into the lamp post that was for some unfathomable reason in the middle of the sidewalk. Seriously, it was a total slap-stick moment; I expected to see Charlie Chaplan hanging around. Almost as painful as it was embarrassing.

I am sorry your classmates are not the greatest (are they international students too?), but still, France YAY!

It is harder to meet up with people by not living in the dorm, and none of us are sure what happened to Sand3. I still am able to meet up with people by going up to Ridgeway or bumping into people in the library.

My apartment is fantastic, minus no internet and having to cook. My roommate this year is very nice. She is not in the fandoms I am, but on our third day there she made me curry for dinner so that's alright.

Senior homework is horrible, full of confusion and really long chapters. I do like my classes though. I am currently in two accounting and one management class. What are your classes like?

It's good that you still can get together with people. And I know Sand3 is living a bit further off campus than you are - and when we get back, we should totally invite ourselves over to her place and bring anime and make sure she doesn't drop of the grip TOO throughly.

And as someone who is recently without internet, that must totally suck. I'm suprised you're handling it so well - I'd be going a bit crazy. Well, I am.

There's nothing like a roomate who cooks. And curry sounds delicious. I'm glad that you like your classes, even if the homework is horrible.

And yeah, most of the other students here are from America, and came her for the express purpose to getting wasted.

*sigh*

Still, France!

No, I meant, what's your ACTUAL mailing adress? Could you e-mail me that?

Keep your chin up and don't get too stressed over the school work.

Love,
redbrunja.
