Chronicles of my adventures in Roma and the surrounding areas

there are no fat people in rome

seriously, there aren't... everyone here is tan, tall, and thin... minus the fat lady who was covering herself with just a scrap of fabric (not enough) and no underwear and bathing in the fountain... not ok. its beautiful here, i've been doing lots more exploring, i've taken some pictures but i cant post them until we have real internet... so like 2 more weeks. we started classes, and its not so bad, it just seems like from now on all our days will be jam packed pretty much until i get home. theres so much shopping around here, so many stores... i did some exploring yesterday just around the camp dei fiori where we are living and nothing really caught my interest, but there is lots more to check out...
speaking of checking things out, if you know matt, you should check out the link to his blog, he had an accident the other night, and will be on his way home soon... its probably best to get the story in his own words. im sad matt is leaving, but very happy that hes ok. we're all very happy he's ok... its like a little family here now... i was worried about not being friends with everyone, but now i know it doesn't matter... we're all friends now whether we like it or not!

OMG, I remember the crazy fat lady!! Apparently like her husband and son both dies and she has been living on the streets ever since. I feel like we donated our sheets to her when we left . . . haha. OMG i miss you and Morgan sooo much, seriously life is not so fun without you guys. And your pictures are making me sad and miss Rome. I can't believe you guys are writing a book. Tell Saunders that it is not necessary and clubbing in Rome is definitely more important, because it is. Anywayssss, you're probably on your north trip right now, they just keep getting better. Wait till the south trip, it's freaking breath-taking. Anyways, EVERYONE from the house misses you guys, we don't actually know what to do with ourselves haha, no but really. OK, well I need to do studio now considering that I have spent the past half hour facebooking/blog-hunting. Love you lots!!! Byee!!
