Ciao tutto!

Hello everyone. I don’t know if anyone is really checking out my website (you bastards:) but you all should, because I refuse to write anymore 3-page e-mails! Just an update on my week. This weekend I went to Lake Garda in northern Italy. It was so beautiful. I’ve never seen a lake that was so clear and turquoise colored. It looked like ocean water! It was so fun and relaxing, and it turned out to be a celebration weekend, so there were fireworks and a fashion show (with a really bad singer in a shiny black coat!) School is still pretty tough. Yes, I do actually study. Alot! We have all these required museum visits and extra classes, but they’re all over in less than 2 weeks. I already can tell I’m really going to miss Florence. It’s become like my home, and it’s going to be strange to leave, but I’m excited to come home and see eveyone also:) Guess that’s about it for now. I’m headed off to Palazzo Vecchio, a palace from which the Medici family ruled Florence in the 13th century. Gotta go learn.
