Fifteen days to get ready for my trip to ITaLiA!!!!
I'm sort of ready for it, and then again commpletely not.
I still need to practice the language, read the guidebook, get all of my supplies ready... and then figure out how to fit them into a suitcase. Wow. I can't even imagine being in a foreign country for three weeks! I don't think I have ever been anywhere but here for longer than two weeks.
And I'll be surrounded by their art and their food and their language and their culture and their music and their... polution.
I know this trip is going to be so fantastic, but I just have to get there first. I still have to finish my self-portrait, paint the example for my methods class, print out the visuals, clean up my printmaking station (and maybe pull a print first), turn in my stupid psychology paper... and then the battle of waterloo-- Art History Final. It's so bizarre that I'm actually looking forward to taking Modern Art next semester... who knew?
At least I finally told Michelle that I can't be at her graduation... I really wanted to be there and it hurt my heart when I started to realize that I wouldn't be able to go. :( Oh, well! That just means that we will have more time together when I do come visit. I still feel crappy about it.
But that's it! That's all that I have in front of me.
It kind of helps to write it all down.
So far I have:
-Black dress
-Black pants
-purse
-sketchbook
-sunscreen
-2 shawls
And I still need:
-shirts
-underwear
-SUITCASE
- SO many other things that I can't even think of...
