Je pars pour Paris... cinq

France. I applied for a Fulbright Scholarship this past fall, and I probably could have been more realistic about the program that they’d accept. I’ll have a better shot if I apply again having learned French with a less ambitious destination than Rwanda. I have this personal policy about the right amount of action—act too fast, and you’re likely doing more harm than good. The turtle and the hair, I suppose—or as Goofy would say, “slow and steady, steady and slow”. I had little interest in France until I started watching French movies and started digging the idea of an entire culture almost… buying into the idea of happenstance. Why not? It makes things so much more beautiful, and less complicated to be honest. It’ll be a good experience to follow Babson—it will make for a good balance.
