Buon giorno!
Ciao i miei amiche lesbiche!!! yes, i have learned the italian word for lesbian. awesome.
Im having a great time here!! I really miss you guys though :( I bought all your souvenirs the other day and Im really excited to give them to you! Although everywhere I go I'm like "hey I think Johanna would like that!" or "Ooo, I should get Chelsea some Italian crayons!" ...so good thing I'm on a budget or you would each get 985 souvenirs. I guess it's only good for me, though.. I'm sure you all would be happy :)
So far I have been singing really really well.. I'm working on a lot of hard repertoire with lots of coloratura (really high, really fast stuff). Up until a few weeks ago I was unsure whether I was a coloratura soprano or not but now Julian says I definitely am!! WOOHOO!!! I am also singing a really super high note (an F, the same note that is sung by Queen of the Night) and Julian is shocked and says that will bring me lots of moolah.. so when I have career I promise I will actually buy everyone 985 souvenirs :)
Ok, if that made no sense, I'm sorry. Basically, it is good!! But I have a mild cold that has been lingering for about three weeks, so I'm learning to sing through it, which is good because I won't have to cancel jobs when I get sick!
Also I've been doing a looooot of sightseeing. Last week Amanda and I went to a beach called Cinque Terre, which is five cliffside towns on the Mediterranean... it was absolutely beautiful. It seemed so unreal. I took some pictures of cute Italian men, so as soon as I get home you will see them all :) Also, Johanna, I've been taking pictures of things with cats just for you! hahaha
I've also been walking A LOT which is hard because of my ankle, so I just take it easy and hope for the best. But its nice to walk a lot, because now I can eat a lot too!! I had this pasta called "drunken noodles" one night, and the waiter told us how to make it.. so I will have a giant pasta party when I come home :) I also have had gelato every day.. yum. I can hear Jessie calling me a fattie right now :)
Basically, I am having a way better time than last year. But I still miss everyone and can't wait to come home!
Leah, are you still in Jersey? If not when will you be up again? When should we come visit you?!?!? Also, I saw the big bra store called Glamour the other day.. Amanda was drooling over bathing suits but they were 200 Euro each! Eek!
Johann, did you find a summer job or a real job? I hope so.
Arie I'm sorry I missed your birthday!! I got you an awesome bday present though :)
Chelsea... you are smelly. :) But really, we should come to Europe together one day.. I have a feeling you would be good at picking up guys here.
Jessie, one of my friends here reminds me of you a lot.. except she is clearly not as awesome.
Did fleet week happen yet? How was it?
Sorry this was such a disjunct post. It is 8:45 am and I'm getting ready to go on a bus trip to two towns in the Tuscan hills! Molto bellissima!! I use a lot of capitals when I write!!! Is there any certain day this summer that will be FLA day? Remember last year it was Tuesday.. but Jessie works on Tuesdays. Should we do Wednesdays? Mondays? I don't care.
Ok I love you all very much and can't wait to see you next week!! Ciao Belle!!!
