the end

Okay so I relaize I have been home now for three weeks, and the Italy chapter has ended. But...I also thought that I should probably let you all know that I am safely home.

Well actually, I am safely at my second home in Nashville. Classes started on Wednesday, so I am already back into the swing of things here. Classes are gonna be tough, and taking classes in English is kinda weird. I find myself trying to pay in Euors still, and the occasional "grazie" slips out instead of "thanks." It's weird. I didn't think that I really knew Italian that well, but I find myself thinking in Italian, and then Spanish, and then finally back to English. AHHH how confusing!

Anyways...the final days of Firenze were fabulous. I went to a football/calcio/soccer game the last weekend before finals. So intense! The fans were out of control, and the visitors sat in a caged off glass section! Haha. I guess when there are really big rivals playing the crowds get a little violent and out of control.

Then I had finals. A week of hell. 3 papers, 5 exams, 4 days. Terrible. But it's long overby now, and the semester turned out very well. I'm sad now that I am not in Italy, though it's nice to be back in the USA!

Well, I'm not sure if anyone will actually read this post since it's been a while since I got back, but I'm so used to updating this blog every couple weeks now that it will be strange to put an end to it. Hope everyone is doing phenomenally!

Ciao ciao
