phthalombrageI got internship paperwork today, so I called the French consulate to ask what I should do. They said bring what I have so far and come to the appointment I made for next Wednesday. They couldn't tell me on the phone whether I would need to fly back to America to apply for the internship visa separately, whether I could stay on a student visa, how long I would need to plan to stay here if I did need to fly back... Apparently my situation is confusing and unique, or something.
And since I also received news this week that the MSE department arbitrarily starts 3 weeks in advance of EVERYONE ELSE at the school in France, I only have 6 weeks before I go, meaning 3-4 weeks to receive finalized internship paperwork, including a letter from the French government saying they realize I will be working in France. I may or may not need to go back to DC after I finish my finals. YAY. Or I may just need to... come back in May. Woo.
I also still don't know whether a new agreement has been signed yet, but I am otherwise almost done with the paperwork I need to send the school for housing. My advisor needs to be in his office more.
In other news, my other tonsil is starting to turn, and the holes in the first one have gotten deeper. There are nine of them, and the new holes in the other tonsil are 2 or 3? large ones, accompanied by some pocking that seems to indicate new developments soon. I'ma ask about this when I go to the dentist in Florida in like a month; Health Services was unhelpful.
