And the obstacles keep on comin..

So I finally have a day off from class today..normally, I have a mandatory class every other Friday for foreign students, but it doesn't start until next week, so I got to sleep in today! Then, I made myself lunch and did some dishes..whilst watching some LOST on my laptop. Then, LOST froze, so I restarted the computer, only to find that it would no longer start up. After going to the university to use the computer lab, I've done some research, and it appears that the most likely explanation is that my hard drive is dead.

Great. Super timing!

I did some research on how to identify the problem, and they all require the Mac Startup Disc...I'm not sure where my Mac Startup Stuff is, or if I even have it with me here (help me out with that one, Dad) but hopefully I'll figure something out, since my whole first week of notes from class is on my laptop, along with all my pictures since this summer, since the computer hasn't been backed up since June....

In other news, my colocataire (roommate) Eva came out to hang out with us the other night! It was fun, I think she might have been a little overwhelmed by my friends' French roommate Benjamin (pronounced Bon-ja-MAN, haha) who was shirtless in front of a bar in the middle of the night when she first met him...but I'm glad she came out with us!

Tomorrow, we have an EAP trip to the Beaujolais, which is a little wine town a little bit north of Lyon. Should be fun!
