So, it's Wednesday...and I leave here Saturday and am staying the night in Rome. Then Jess and I are leaving on the same flight at 12:45 PM from Fiumicino (Leonardo DaVinci Airport)
But...I'm done with all my paintings in workshop!! And it's sunny again here. It's been overcast the past few days. We were thinking about hitting up the pool again (on Sunday a bunch of girls and I went to the pool alllll day! It was great, and I got an okay tan. (Finally) but today during workshop we have to start cleaning up even though a lot of other people are still painting. oh well.
Yeah, this past weekend was a lot of fun. Most people stayed here, although one couple went to Slovenia to visit friends, and another couple went to Ancona (a beach town) on the northern coast.
We just chilled, because San Gemini was having a little festival here, on Thursday and Friday nights. Michelle and I were up pretty late Thursday, so Friday we left early. The other girls had a rather drama-filled night and it was nice to just hear about it for once. They hung out with the live band that had played earlier, and met some other guys. The next night, Michelle and I went to Terni and did some awesome shopping ( i have acquired a love of shopping on this trip) and the other girls had MORE drama, considering two of the four of them have (had?) boyfriends. That backlash is still continuing, and still happy have not gone out that night. Michelle and I stayed in and did our nails (red on hands, bright blue on toes) and watched episodes of Entourage. awesome.
Sunday, again, we were at the pool. It was pretty jam packed, considering all the other times we've gone, it was almost empty. Lots of pretty Dolce and Gabbana model looking guys walking around. (some in speedos, some not...)Am having fun taking advantage of the fact that it is perfectly acceptable to blatantly stare in Italy. (seeing as we've been stared at the majority of the trip..hahah) In the pool here, you have to wear a little swimming cap-which is really embarassing, but made me feel like a) a 4 year old again and b) a synchronized swimmer. it was pretty fun. Michelle and I had found some in Terni when we were shopping, so we kind of all exchanged them when we wanted to go in the water.
Anyway-- I'm thinking of you all, and will be home sooner than you think!
love seeeer
