it's 6:56am over here and my eyes hurt. i'm tired and i just wanna go back to sleep and or shower but i can't do either cause i'm going to amsterdam in about a half an hour, i know, i know... pity me hahaha. i'm really excited to go because its going to be more relaxed than the italy vienna excursion- not that i didnt love that, it was just so much in so little time.

about that- italy was fabulous. i may have been the only one who thought so highly of it, but it was so nice and relaxing. rome was a little too touristy for me, but it had some beautiful sights and the gelato was superb. i need to go to the vatican still so i will have to go again (that's a whole story in itself that i will regail some othe place) and i really want to see outside of rome in the rest of lazio. florence was very cute, we did a lotta just dorky cute things, like see a guy perform oldies (who actually toured with garfunkl i believe) and went on a carousel in the square. according to the boar, i'm never going back to florence. which, actually, i believe. as much as i liked florence i think i saw what i needed to- and like rome, if i went back i'd want to see something other than the city, i want to do a tour of tuscany or something like that. i want to do naples, toscana, piza, the islands, the coast, the small towns. i dont think of cities when i think of italy, i thikn if the countryside, but we didn't get to see loads of it, unfortunately. but who am i to complain i just spent 9 days there- life is fabulous and i will go wherever in italy anytime. veniceeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee was the next city we went to, and i absolutely loved it. theres bridges everywhere, which is kind of a bitch after you've walked a lot, but they just make everything so cute. and the water is a deep green and the gondola men are all over and the coblestone streets.... ahhhh. there aren't cars or bikes in the city so no ones running you over, its just people and its adorable. the islands of venice were beautiful too. i am destined to go back to venice, my true love lives there. his name is nenard (prouonounced like lenard). and thats my story.

i was sad to see italy and when we left we did a sleeper train. very intersting. the train took us to vienna, a nice little city as well. the palaces there are gorgeous. i saw my first opera! it was a really weird one, but i actually enjoyed it in the end. we only paid 2 euro for sstanding only spots, but some people left so we sat in their ledge. and then after a few days we came back here.

its amazing that this isf my life. i know i always make life plans but to actually have stuff done off of them, and to actually follow through with something as big as studying abroad, and then travelling through europe is kind of fulfilling and unbelievable. aghh!!!! i have to write my four 4,000+ word essays in 2 weeks now though, and my ENTIRE grade for the WHOLE semester depends on these essays so thats really scary. if i fuck up, i fuck up really bad. so i have to buckle down as soon as i get back from amsterdam.

as it is, i will be in amsterdam from 4/19-4/21. and what's between those days my friends? yes thats 4/20. a little coincidence we had when booking. i find it quite amusing because its me going to amsterdam lol but it shall be a fun time, i'm sure. anyway, i'm going to go now because i gotta catch my taxi to heathrow. if you want look at pictures go to: http://flickr.com/photos/nskrhul06/
