I am in Rome! It is exciting but terrifying. I have not slept in a while. And it is only 5:30. Still have dinner and sight-seeing to do before I can pass out. Yay? The lackage of sleep makes it hard to get too excited. I wish I were naturally more social. And I wish I had a better sense of fashion? And I wish I weren't so damn Awkward. I wonder what it's like to be normal? Maybe I will now go get ready for dinner. My room is on the 6th floor. It is hot up there. It isn't too bad down here in the lobby, where the wireless connection is. But the upstairs is hot. I think I will take the elevator. Like... now. Since dinner is at 6. I kind of feel like crying, but I feel that would be silly, since I am in Rome, for Pete's sake. But I am feeling lonely. Like, lonlier than usual. Which is unpleasant. Thus the wishing for normalness. A lot of the people here already know each other, though. Well, not a LOT. But a number of them are from the same school. Not that they're my kind of people anyway.... they're the pearls-wearing beer-drinking sorority types. I couldn't fit in with them even if I desperately desired to. But they're nice enough, I suppose. Remember that time I was going to go get ready and then I spent another 10 minutes on the computer? Like I said: Lonely. Sigh.
Perhaps I will soon get around to posting that entry I have mostly-written about my trip to Alaska.......?
