So while I'm still not feeling nearly as great as I had been a couple of weeks ago, it's not quite as intense anymore. I feel a bit as if I've fallen into the feelings that I had in late August: not feeling the need to cry all the time, wanting to feel occupied, and ups and downs (not as severe as in August however). I've talked to quite a few other exchange students and most of them have felt this change in the past week or two as well, so I know that it's a stage that I will just have to ride out and deal with. 
         But while at the moment on the inside I'm a bit melancholy, there are a lot of exciting things (well, not all of them are necessarily exciting) that are to happen in the next month. The first is the Thanksgiving celebration with other exchange students. This Friday 7 or 8 of us are having dinner at another exchange student's house, I think it will be awesome. The next Friday my exams (ahhh!) start. While that's not exactly a nice thing to look forward to, it will take energy and time to study, therefore making me busier :) My exams end the 17th of December, and that Sunday my family and I are going to a "Marché de Noël" (Christmas market) in Germany! Those markets are famous in Europe, especially Germany and France, so I am super excited for that!!!
