good thing i have a blag to victimize with my haphazard thoughts.
- wednesday was the last day of classes at la pietra. traveling to the same guarded perimeter each day, i learned the meaning of the word campus. while the setting awed me, being in a place open to only students and professors was slightly suffocating for me. there was no uncertainty, no hope that i would see something surprising. attending class felt mechanical, each day indistinguishable from the one before it. i don't want to know who's turning the corner. i want to wonder if it's going to be a student or someone dressed in a fuzzy purple pimp outfit. :)
- vincenza just told me mariah carey and nick cannon are engaged. he must be nearing thirty, but nick cannon will perpetually be sixteen in my mind. and mariah carey is a nut case. i would be terrified to live in the same house as her.
- kelly just told me that there is this big deal about a picture of miley cyrus with her back exposed. your tweenage daughter is not going to come to the conclusion she should have sex because she sees some of miley cyrus' back from an artistic photo shoot, i hope not. jamie lynn's pregnancy, maybe.
- every rain drop that makes it my way from now on is going to invariably carry memories of florence. to make sure of this, i bought a new umbrella. it has got botticelli's primavera on it.
museums are my life. school hooked us up with "amici degli uffizi" cards. we pay no entrance fees, we wait in no lines, and we walk arrrround the metal detectaz & the bouncers don't check us (alright maybe that last one only happened once).
- i'm less depressed about getting older (a little). we watched "l'ultimo bacio" for l'ultimo lezione d'italiano. finding the person you want to spend the rest of your life with and having kids has got to be so rewarding. maybe you're not doing crazy things all the time with your wild self anymore, but eventually finding happiness in a state of normalcy is the true revolution.
- i like typing random words into itunes search then listening to all the songs that come up!
one week till amreeka.
