For the first day of class we had to be there at 8 am. My commute is a little over an hour from my doorstep to my school. I thought I had left in time, but as I rounded the corner for my school I got a phone call... "Emily, is everything ok? Are you coming into class today?". I looked at my watch which showed 7:59 a.m... I still have a minute don't I? My phone lost reception and I bolted around the corner, up the stairs, and got to my seat at 8:04 a.m. I was the second to last person there! I thought geez the French really don't mess around with punctuality. Late on my first day of school. Classic Emily. When I got home that day I saw that we were to arrive BETWEEN 7:30 a.m. and 8 a.m. That cleared up a lot. The French aren't anal, I just can't read. Well I learned my first lesson quick. Be on time.
