So yesterday I got the amazing chance to go see the city of Lucca. What a beautiful city!!! It is a tiny little city that Florence was trying to expand to but the city of Lucca wanted to be its own so they built these really high walls all around the city. Today, you can walk on them and see all of the city. I didn't get a chance to do this but all the more reason to come back to europe later! heehee I saw many cathedrals and churches but my favorite was when we got to climb up one of many bell towers and see an entire view of the city! Oh i can't wait to post pictures! The city of Lucca also has some AMAZING shops! I found a Sephora there! Crazy huh?
Other than Lucca yesterday, today I had my weekly test in my italian class. Me having crazy test anxiety was freaking out about it. The test was only a page long and I seemed to do okay. But after looking at my notes after the test I think I got a couple wrong. I guess I will find out tomorrow. After school I sat around, walked to the post office and got stamps so some of you will be getting postcards soon if I have your address! Then had a meeting with the Resident Director to get some of my classes changed so that I am taking only 3 classes with the same credit load I was taking. When I get to Florence I will be taking Mysticsm and Magic in Medieval and Ren. Italy, History of Italian Cinema and Society and Elementary Italian 2. Right now while we are in Lido, I am in Elementary 1.
Missing everyone and just thought I would give an update!

So pardon my ignorance but what is Sephora?
By the way how do you get the postage stamps to stick?
Glad you're having fun and seeing lots of cool stuff. I trust you'll do fine on the Italian quiz. Remember it's grade school Italian - not College...
Love ya!
Dad
Sephora is a store that i found online from the advice of a friend adn they sell make up and skin care items as well as hair stying stuff.
we just got one at the new southcenter as well! i just thought it was cool i saw it in a little town in italy!
Does your little town have a Starbucks or McDonald's yet? Over here, you know a town has "arrived" when they have one or the other - if both, then it's a city!! LOL.
Can't wait to show you our local wonders. No Sephora that I know of, but we can keep our eyes open for it. See you!
Hey Lauren... sounds like your having fun :)
