...

I had decided I would post at least one short paragraph per day here. Even though I usually write a lot in English to communicate to my international friends and, especially to my boyfriend, I definetely need more practice.

Despite this, I confess I am not very inspired to write today. I have been sending hundreds of e-mails in English to get information about my visa, about the Sevis fee, about my deadlines, and it is making me feel exhausted.

It is amazing how bureaucracy is a killjoy.
