Ciao Tutti! I am SO sorry I have not written for a month. I can't believe its been a month, time has flown. I kept telling myself, I will write tomorrow, but I guess I never did. Things have been crazy here. I am so busy each day. Each day is a new day for me and I never know what I am going to do. I love that about Italy. Everyday is a new and exciting. Now, I have to think back to everything I have been doing! Prima Maggio (May 1st) was a huge day for Niscemi. No one [View Full Entry]

Ciao tutti! I am so sorry I am so slack on writing on this travel blog. I remember reading one girls blog who went to Italy a few years ago, and she only had 10 or so blogs. I had said to myself, I am going to write all the time and have so many blogs. Well, as you all know that is not true. It is difficult to find the time to sit down and write one of these. So yet again, I am sorry! Anyways, things have been absolutely crazy here in Italy. I have been doing so many [View Full Entry]

Ciao tutti! Vi manco! (Hey everyone, I miss you) Things are great here. It has offically been 2 months since I have been here. I come home in 3 months and 5 days. Crazy huh? Time is flying by. It has been a crazy 2 weeks here since I have last updated. It has been the Easter holiday. For Italians, Easter is HUGE. We got off school on the Tuesday before Easter. That night was a huge town celebration called San Giuseppe. Throughout the whole town they have alters. They have tons and tons of food and pictures of Jesus and [View Full Entry]

Right this second I am sitting out the balcony of my window, eating an apple, and watching Italian people do what they do on Saturday afternoons. I tend to do this a lot. I watch the woman across apartments from me and next to me taking laundry off the hooks and hanging clothes up to dry. I see the men below me unloading things from their cars. I watch many kids of all ages walking and driving their scooters by laughing loudly and enjoying themselves. This is what makes Italy so great. Today and for the past couple of days it [View Full Entry]

Ciao! Come state? (How are you all doing) I have officially been here 1 month from today. It is a crazy feeling knowing I have only 4 1/2 more months here, yet 4 1/2 more months till I see all of you guys. Anyways, last week was a hard week for me. I did not get much sleep and I wasn't in the best of moods. I started to get irritated and frusturated with the language. Which I think is totally common. I went to the gym for the first time, twice last week. It was good to actually do something, [View Full Entry]

Ciao Ciao! I am been so busy lately, but at the same time it feels like I have a lot of free time. I am finally settling in at school, well thats not true. Italian schools, wow what can I say about them. They are very disorganized and not the cleanest schools in the world. I go to a school named Leonardo Da' Vinci. I have a schedule of classes I am supposed to take, but most of them are wrong. I have been going to a lot of random classes. I have a feeling I will not be doing anything [View Full Entry]

Let’s see, I’ve been so busy still! On Friday, school was long and boring, of course. After school though, Marco and his friend were sitting in the den of my side of the house, talking and hanging out. I was on the computer writing some emails. Marco called me in and I got up and fell. It’s embarrassing but my foot popped. I could not walk and it hurt worse than ever. It was awful. I didn’t do anything that day because I was in too much pain. It eventually died down. I woke up yesterday morning, Saturday, and it hurt [View Full Entry]

I am going to add just a few pictures because it won't let me add a lot. I think I'm going to start a photobucket page so everyone can view all the pictures. Ciao for now! [View Full Entry]

Ciao! I’ve been so busy lately. I’ve started school fully and am beginning to take 2 hour Italian lessons. School is school. Italian schools are very disorganized with their classes and schedules. I have a mixture of classes I should not be in and so on and so on. I have been going to a lot of classes with Meri because she knows what she is doing. School is boring. I have no idea what is going on and it is hard to get through it. Thursdays and Fridays I go to school till 2:30 and the other days only till [View Full Entry]

These are just a few entries from when I did not have wireless. Just keeping you updated! Trust me, there won't be this much again. Enjoy! 30/1/08 Wireless still is not working. I am bummed that I don’t get to talk to you guys. I decided that I would just write a blog anyway and post it when the internet works. Last night, Marco took me out. We went with Jessica and her sister. We met many friends and had tons of fun. We went to a pub (don’t worry mom, its common here) and just hung out with friends. It [View Full Entry]
