Meh.

Today I went to a church or monastery or something. I don't think it was either, really, but I don't know what else to call it. A place of God. Haha. There we go. I met some really tiny nuns and some fathers, I think. The mini nuns showed me some super historical fancy paintings and gave me the whole tour. I guess it would help a lot more if I knew what they were talking about. And that has nothing to do with not speaking Italian.

Also today, I bought a straightener. STOKED.

It's my host mother's birthday today. I thought that maybe we would have a super fancy lunch. In actuality, we had leftover lasagna... but it was on super fancy plates. Then we went grocery shopping. I was supposed to pick out stuff I liked, but the problem was that European grocery stores don't exactly sell the same things ours do. Cereal selection consisted of about 10 different brands of the same exact no-sugar corn flake. Oh well. I picked out strawberries. I like strawberries.

The sunset was magnificent tonight due to all of the wind and rain and clouds.

Taken right off my balcony :]
