Despite cold and fatigue, I am still enjoying my time in Italia!!
This past week I started my new classes, got a cold, and randomly found a parade...
To begin with classes: I love my new classes!! I can't wait to learn everything about grapes and restaurant beverage management!! Highlights of the week during my class have included my new teacher, wine tasting with Massimo, and learning how to properly open a bottle of wine!!
A cold? Why, yes. I am currently on death's corner, knocking on heaven's door, awaiting death to come and take me...haha just kidding. But being sick, having an insane cough, and being super tired certainly does put a damper on things...
This weeks craziest event: San Giavanni...Florence celebrates its patron saint (aka Saint John the Baptist) This week I found a random parade and enjoyed an hours worth of fireworks, which I have discovered are quite difficult to photograph.
The new roommates...oh gosh, I hate them. I wish I was with new girls, and our apartment totally sucks...haha just kidding!!!! These girls are amazing!! Two from Baylor and one from Louisville? How could you go wrong with a total southern dynasty?
This week's strange food/drink combo: hamburger with moscato (a sweet dessert wine...)
This week's yummy delicatessen: Sfizia? (question on spelling), delicious hamburgers run by a crazy, confused italian/australian man? Either way, so delicoussssss
This week's party spot: Club Twentyone!! Great drinks provided by Remigio (aka Walter) if ever in Florence, this is the place to be!!!
Ok, well gotta get ready for my Italian adventure to Assisi tomorrow!! More adventures to come!!!
This week's Italian phrase...amo cantare alejandro da lady gaga which means i love to sing alejandro by lady gaga (which has been my song for the past two weeks...video is sooo weird and totally inappropriate for anyone under the age of 18-thank you Marty Fallon for this assessment-but the song alone is fantastic)!!!!
Ciao a tutti!!!
