I've been fascinated with the French culture - language, food, fashion, art - for a really long time, and those are all things I'm hoping to achieve a more in-depth perspective on while in Aix. I'm also really excited for the French Cinema elective; I've always wanted to be more educated on the history of French film production. I love films in general, and I think that having the opportunity to learn about one important sector of the film industry and its history is going to be really beneficial.
Every summer I try to do at least one thing, whether big or small, that will leave a lasting impression on me for a long time to come. I'm positive that I will be able to achieve this goal for Summer 2011 while in Aix. I can't wait to meet everyone else attending the program and have the chance to dive into it all together. Living in as beautiful a place as Aix and being able to take it in with my peers is such a fabulous way to both learn a lot and also make fabulous memories.
Quatre jours jusqu'a je sors des Etats-Unis! Juillet sera un vraiment bon mois.
