friday
We woke up super early again and had breakfast in the hotel. The flight was delayed and we had lots of time to shop at the airport and there really wasn’t much to shop for. I bought chocolate and stuff. The flight was long. Really long. I sat next to Marisa which was good. They gave us turkey for dinner. I didn’t eat it. I ate cheese and bread and potatoes again. And cake. I watched...
thursday
This was a pretty laid back day. We drove out to Pompeii which was pretty cool! We stopped at this huge rest stop and got lots of food for the bus. We were supposed to climb Mount Vesuvius but apparently it snowed and it was way too dangerous so we went to the museum of ruins with this woman Evita who called us collectively as “New York”. The tour was pretty boring and we were all done...
wednesday
This was the actual best day of my life. We woke up and had breakfast. I ate yogurt and a roll and nutella and had the best hot chocolate ever. We got on the bus and picked up a new tour guide, Allesondra who was so funny omg I almost died. We drove through Rome and went to Vatican City. We walked through all of the Vatican Museums all day and they were beautiful. We saw the Sistine Chapel and I...
tuesday
John was sorry he knocked on the door that morning. We all were miserable and tired and cranky. Omg. LOL. But we got our bags and went downstairs. We loaded up the bus and had a bagged breakfast which had a hard boiled egg in it….. just no. When we got to the airport we went through security and such and had McDonalds breakfast lol. I had a muffin and a croissant and it was pretty good. I...
monday
Monday we had a 5:30 wake up call and a 6:00 breakfast. That was rough, but we all made it downstairs to eat in a half hour, John included. I ate the same thing again for breakfast and realized I forgot my camera at the last minute and sprinted back up all 3924 stairs. We drove out to Corinth that day, and stopped at the Corinth Canal which was unbelievable. It was SO DEEP. It took 1 minute and 49...
sunday
Sunday we had our latest wakeup all week. We had a 7:00 wake up call and had to be down for breakfast at eight. We all frantically tried to get ready and shower in only an hour. Kelli blew a fuse with her hair dryer and we had to call down to the front desk to get it fixed. John knocked on the door and waited for us to be done to go to breakfast with us which was so cute LOL. We went down to the...
friday/saturday
Okay so Friday I stayed home from school. I woke up pretty early anyway and got my last minute things together and packed everything up. Mom made me a grilled cheese and we stopped at Sevs and picked up Marisa. The group met at the library and we all took tons of pictures and we were on our way!!!! The drive to the airport went so quickly. When we got to the airport, we did all the airporty things...

Well, last week was the most incredible week of my entire life. I’m going to do a day by day kinda thing explaining the whole trip later tonight :)
Sometimes, really late at night, I get extremely nostalgic. I cry over the stupidest things and then cry some more because I’m crying over something so ridiculous. Sometimes It passes really quickly and I realize that I’m acting insane, but sometimes it doesn’t. And tonight is one of those nights.
So, now I’ll probably just lay here for hours and think about all of the...
Last night was fun. After school I was starving so I went to McDonalds with Katie. Then we visited Josh at PathMark and went to CVS to buy some new stuff. Then we came back to my house and I did Katie’s makeup hehe. Then we went to the mall to put our name down at Cheesecake Factory. It was an HOUR AND A HALF wait ugh. But Me and Kiera and H&H stayed in Barnes & Nobles and read...
School has been alright lately. This week went pretty slowly to be honest. I still have no friends in Economics, if you were wondering. I hurt myself getting you of Katie’s car yesterday morning. I stayed after for a Class Competition meeting. Ryan texted ME first. I’ve been super sassy to him lately. I visited a puppy store. I went to my girls’ Senior Night game. I went to the...
Literally nothing has happened lately. Friday I went to Katie Marra’s with H&H, Kiera and Jordan and Lindsay. It was fun, we had Uncle Don’s homemade pizza and it was absolutely delicious. When I got home all my aunts were here and it was nice to see everyone :) Saturday morning I went to the gym and then at night we went to the boys’ MCSA games. I awkwardly encountered Ryan...
Guess I’ll upadate y’all on my boring life. Nothing has happened lately, really.
I’ve been going to the gym and running a lot so I actually feel really good. Minus the fact that I think some part of my foot is most definitely broken. Whatevs.
I had an encounter with Nicole the other day at the gym with Marisa. It was uncomfortable.
School has been boring. Second semester...
