I am in Italy, all is going well. I lost my camera cable (my best guess is I left it in my hotel room in NYC), so pictures aren't gonna be up for a long time. Sorry.
Internet is muy dificil to find here, as this is the first time I am able to use my laptop at home. I have been going cold turkey from everything else. I deserve an award for that.
It's been crazy and I have plenty to tell, but to hold you all over until I have 3 days for the almighty motherload of blog entries about my pasta-infused life, here's some things that you should probably know.
- people really do say "mamma mia".
- if you are any ethnicity other than Sicilian, you will fry in the sun in about 2.71 seconds.
- everything tastes so much better here.
- everything is eaten/drank in moderation, even water. (which annoys me profusely.)
- not many places are familiar with air conditioning.
- walking everywhere is awesome, unless it's pouring. then you'd rather die.
- there is a fine line between italian conversing and italian fighting. you will know it when you see it.
- the Italy Beverly (seen in Walt Disney World's Epcot and Coca Cola Factory in Atlanta) DOESN'T EVEN EXIST HERE.
- sparkling water doesn't suck as much after you force it down for a couple of meals.
- America needs Aranchini.
- I miss my Turkey Hill Iced Tea more than life itself.
- it is possible to miss people you only knew for a day (ORIENTATION OH MY GOD)
- the kids in my chapter rock the socks off of kids everywhere else.
- withdraw from youtube and the rest of the internet is sometimes more painful than you can ever understand.
UNTIL THE NEXT TIME IM ONLINE!
