So, I had typed out this REALLY long post, and the internet decided to crap out on me the other night! Talk about annoying! Now I'll attempt to re-type as much of it as I can recall! It's been a while, so I've done a lot! We went to the Academia building and saw the David! I was expecting maybe a six foot statue. No! This thing is over 17 feet tall! It was HUGE!

Yeah, food at the villa sucks, but out in town it's GREAT! So, at least we get ONE good meal a week! I hear that previous semsters had their food homemade here at the villa, but ours is catered, so I think that's why it's not very good. The weather is much better! It's really warm during the day (So nice that we usually don't need a sweat shirt or anything) and then at night, it's just a little chilly. I'm glad it's not HOT yet though, because then we get to SMELL all of the sweaty Italians lol. Love you too! And miss you guys! :)
