Hello weekend of GREAT holidays!


Hello my friends!

Not much to report here. Rainy day here in Florence. I never should have walked with an umbrella that’s for sure. I will get to that later.

Well, this morning woke up and trekked around for a bit to find new boots and a straightener. Took new pictures cause I just went around different ways.

Then I had Italian, first quiz next week. Joy.

Then I worked out. (After last night, I needed to!! HAHA!)

Then I had my meeting for my special events class and now were just sitting here hanging out and doing homework before we kebob it tonight finally again for dinner. Those things are delicious!!

But tonight we are going to plan this epic weekend. National Drink Wine Day is Friday---- that’s like Christmas in Italy and then National Margarita Day is Sunday. We will be celebrating that however Saturday night into Sunday with HOMEMADE margaritas. I don’t think the margaritas I want to be shipped to me will get through customs. L HAHA! And then we are going to talk about the day trips we will do this weekend because we all want to stay in Italy for once. My body is still aching from the bus ride last weekend. But because I got to walk on the ground Julie Andrew’s did, I have no regrets. I hope you all plan on being good citizens and celebrating the holidayS too.

Pretty excited for this weekend though. Celebrating such a great national holiday that is probably just as big as an American’s Christmas…….. cause for celebration cause I love Christmas!! And then my 2nd favorite holiday is Sunday next to National Cheesecake Day.

Spring Break is still in the works………………. Dublin is now a maybe. AKA I hope a yes.

As for this umbrella story. Everyone, a little note, when I return. You better learn how to power walk, I don’t think you’ll be able to keep up with me. I have MASTERED the art of power walking.

But honestly, I don’t know how any Italians over here stay so skinny when they walk .2 mph. NO ONE walks fast. It’s so annoying because people stop right in front of you and then don’t move out of the way even though the sidewalks are so small. I swear I have to power through the crowds of people and it’s so annoying. They say Italians stay so skinny because they walk so much. I don’t see how it’s possible. And then try walking my speed with an umbrella. FAIL.

I just have to add I am extremely missing a cellular phone. I can’t tell you how many times I have picked up my whiteberry ready to send a text. IT’S HORRIBLE.

And as for cellular phones. T-Mobile sucks just as much as my Italian phone company sucks. I have sent 1 text and I have 10 dollars worth of charges. 10 dollars for a text. Looks like my bank is looking out for me cause they denied the charge and now I have to go in and talk to them. They’re going to hate me like T-Mobile does. Why do cell phones hate me? HAHA

Anyways. Well that’s it for now but I will report back after my adventures tomorrow for whatever we do cause IT’S MY WEEKEND NOW! J

Mi manchi!

(that means I miss you in Italian! Hahaha)
