Aprileee.

Gorgeous weather...simply gorgeous. I strolled down Catanzaro to the metro today with my ipod pleasantly playing in my ears...until I got to the Bologna metro stop...and there was a band randomly playing in the square. That's what I love about Rome- how everything becomes an exciting adventure, filled with something interesting and random. I just happened upon a band! haha.

I spent the day with Becky, trying to stock up on foods for Passover. We headed over to the Jewish Ghetto, and it was lovely to be in the heart of some good Jewish culture. We ran into Heather (from our program- Bethany and Rachel's roommate) and her friend from home, when dining on some good falafel...YUM. It was like American falafel but spicier. Amazingggg. Becky and I then proceeded to watch about 3 hours of Will and Grace before eating at our regular restaurant- Carlo Menta (sp?). (I got what I always get- spaghetti with spicy tomato sauce and bacon- spaghetti all'amatriciana. YUMMMY.) After that, I headed home and caught up with Katie. (She'd been gone all weekend in Siena, with her parents.)

Now it's nice just to relax...
I still have bug bites, though. UGH. They're everywhere! Is it my sheets? I swear I change them. Is it me? I swear I take showers...err BATHS regularly! Maybe it's my mattress, or I'm allergic to something?

I SHOULD do homework. I will...at some point. haha.
Tomorrow is the first night of Passover, so Becca, Becky and I are doing a make-shift seder. It'll be nice to celebrate Passover, even if it's not in the traditional way...so I'm looking forward to that. It's all about the spirit of the holiday, right? I'm definitely going to try not eating grains...quite a feat here in Italy..but since next week is Spring Break, I'm not going to be able to last...especially cause we're going to Bologna, which is famous for its bolognese sauce...so I gotta have pasta thereeee.

OK well time to go!! True Life is on MTV and I want to see some good American MTV. (with subtitles)

Hopefully the weather will continue being in the 70's and sunny. My favorite type of weather, I've decided. Yes.

NIGHT! :)
