Super-Duper Wacky n' Tacky Euro Adventure

and in no time we'll be outta here. On any other Thursday I'd be out enjoying a drink with friends, but tomorrow I'm draggin my tired ass back to the office because I had to miss my internship on Monday. I missed for what I thought would be a great reason - a class trip to Strasbourg to visit a session of the European Court of Human Rights. Not that I'm ungrateful (I kinda am), but the trip sucked. The van ride over was cramped, the food was terrible, and we arrived in town about too late to do anything but sleep. The next morning my stomach decided it didn't like the food from the previous night either and decided to eject it accordingly. Our scedule prevented us from doing any sight seeing of the relatively small town. The hearing we were gonna see was cancelled. We got some talks from European lawyers which were interesting, but seemed a little hasty. Then the wind and rain started. Get this: Didn't get above 50 degrees that entire day in Strasbourg. brr. Then van ride back was equally cramped and we stopped at the exact same cafeteria on the way back. Not amused. Then the expert scheduling returned to drop us off in Paris at 11:30pm when me and three others had interships the next morning at nine. Of course we were all busy with papers and finals, so we weren't in the partying mood in the first place, but the great planning really got us moving in that nerdy dullness only Stanford students can truly pull off come finals time. Speaking of which, even though it's late, I have my own papers to work on. I'm trying to get this econ paper out of the way. But can a ten pager in French really just be put out of the way? Not really. Gonna do the best I can for the night.
