On The Go

At 7:30 this morning, Nadia came to my room and told me that we had to leave five minutes early because it snowed during the night and it was still snowing.   I got ready as fast as possible and we left. The snow was really slushy on the roads.

We had two hours of history and philosophy this morning.  I didn't have the computer in the beginning so I did my italian homework and then I wrote random sentences in Italian in different types of handwriting.  Twenty minutes after the start of the class, someone brought me the computer, but I didn't want to read about the French Revolution and the teacher didn't say anything, so I continued with my sentences.  The time went by very slowly.  Outside the window, the snowflakes were huge for the first hour, but it slowed down and then stopped completely by the third hour.  We had art for that hour and I did a bunch of emailing to try to plan my trip to Belgium and to make sure I would be able to travel with my mom and sister when they come in April. After art, we had English with the American teacher and I talked with her for a little bit after class.  The fifth and sixth hours were biology and math and I found a book on the internet to read for biology.  Before the math hour, the biology teacher told me that I had to do a small paper about Gregor Mendel, so I cranked that out during my math hour.  

When I got home, we ate lunch and then Giulia and I talked for a little bit before I had to take a shower.   At 3:30, Nadia and I left the house to walk to my school.  I thought it was a lot colder outside than it actually was.  I think it was because we were walking fast.  When I got to lessons, I took my jacket off and sat by the open window in my short sleeve shirt.  I eventually got cold again during the second hour of lessons.  

At 6, Janie and I walked back to her house because she had forgotten her wallet and she needed to get money out of the ATM.  Then we walked back to the center and met up with some friends at the pub.  At 7, I had to leave with Giulia and we went to the commercial center so that she could buy shoes and some gloves.  We ended up leaving with neither and we went home for dinner.

After dinner, around 9:15, Giulia and I left again to pick up her friends and then go to a basketball game.  The game ended around 11 and Giulia dropped me off at home.  I got everything prepared for Venice tomorrow.  Now it's 12:30 and I am just now finishing my writing.  I have to get up at 5 and the train leaves at 6.  It's a 5 hour ride though, so I'll be able to sleep then!

Buonanotte!
