Italy Blog
Ok....so here it is. it'll prob. be SUPER long, but oh well. :)
July 12 - So today I got to the airport, was REALLY nervous for a while, but then finally got my ticket and got through security and was alright. There were at first 2 snobby girls sitting beside me talking about seeing something gross while they were drunk. It was kind of annoying, but then they left and a Swiss lady sat next to me who spoke Spanish, and she was really nice. She even bought me a hot dog haha. Shes going back to Switzerland. Shes actually Haitian i think, and speaks like 5 languages. And then we got on the plane, and im sitting next to a guy from Honduras, going to Belgium. He's really nice and was telling me how they missed thier flight and they lost his luggage. :( Hes an international financial person - going to discuss free trade. And then in our row we have a 7? year old french girl who's eally cute, but doesn't speak english. we were trying to help her w/Soduko, but yeah. And then we got our food. it wasn't that great - i had fish because they ran out of beef. The sunset was AMAZING today. it was red then orange, then there was a strip of cloud...and then it went blue-green, and then almost electric blue. I didn't get a chance to get a picture, but it was beautiful.
July 13 - So....i missed my plane today for Florence because our plane from Miami to France was late. but it turned out pretty cool because i met this really nice Slovakian guy named David. :) We talked for about 2 hrs, waiting for our new flights. He studied english in Ft. Lauderdale. I didn't get his email or anything though. :( So now...Im pretty much on my own....I get into Florence @ like 3...so the lady i was supposed to meet will be gone. That means i have to get a train by myself to Castelfiorentino. Ahh!!! France is cool, I haven't been able to see much of it though, since i've just been in the airport.
After getting on the plane - we walked up steps - pretty sweet! i went to sleep and got off in florence. after that, i finally found a money-changing place w/the help of some new yorkers, got on a cab with a nice old taxi driver and got to the station. I waited in line for a while, but finally got a ticket for the train, and then i met up with 2 of my group!!! it was cool. i prob. wouldn't have made the train w/out their help. We took the train and some guy kept staring at me (kinda cute guy lol!) and then our team leaders met us there!! it was great! We have 10 people in our group - 13 with everybody. The place is SUPER nice, and everybody's pretty nice. I'm rooming with a lady named Kim. she's funny. :) We had dinner after getting situated and having a toast ( i drank tea lol). OH MY GOSH the food was M-AZING! Our cook is named Francesca - really nice and cooks really really good. We had pasta w/succhinni, cheese, tomatoes, bread, and for dessert a chestnut flour cake. Different, but goooood.
July 14- This morning we got up @ 7, had breakfast, and then learned about the excavation. we walked to the dig and started, which was pretty cool. Another team found walls and stuff, so we're continuing and digging up new stuff. We stopped at 1 because it was raining, and had lunch. It was also really good, except there was rice and seafood - weird seafood lol with little octopi in it haha. but then we were served eggplant, cucumbers, bread, cheese, and tomatoes with cheese. the tomatoes were GREAT. Now we're on break until 4:30, and then we wash and label pottery. :)
July 15-25 - Didn't write in these days....don't really know why lol. but we dug and dug and dug some more....i found pottery and walls....and more walls...and more walls!! ;) On the weekend, Sat. we went to Siena with me, lucy, and kim, AMAZING!!! we had pizza for lunch, and lucy bought 6 pairs of shoes lol! and then we went back....and on sun me and kim went to florence. we saw the duomo, santa croche, ponte vecchio and the pitti palace, but couldn't see david. and then the next week we did more digging, and got to know everybody. our team members were Kim, Lucy, Betsy, Paul, Montana, Elva, Ruth-Anne, Jane, Evelyn, and me. I liked Kim and Lucy the best. they were prob. the youngest, and the funniest too. Kim was always making jokes, and Lucy was the crazy one. she actually lives in italy - venice area. :) And then the staff were Marya - really really really nice, Benjamin - super cool but he was always messing with me gah lol, and Sabrina, also super cool. :) Oh and the second week i met the students - Yuri, Michele, and Valeria - italian, and Juan, Ague, Lara, and Pablo - spanish. SUPER COOL!!!!! we had sooooo much fun. we went to the pub one night, and they all got drunk and it was hilarious. i learned an italian drinking song there too - you say the month of your birthday and you stand up and everybody's singing (for example, me) april, april, si alchi si alchi!!! and then may....so on. lol oh and you have to chug. so i chugged a coke haha. :)
it was a lot of fun. and then another day we went to San Gimignano - AMAZING town!!!! we went around, and got the best gelato EVER!!! and then kinda broke into a park haha....and went to an old tower that looked out over the city. it was beautiful.
July 26- Today was a nightmare. My flight got totally screwed up, so we - Montana, Elva, Ruth Anne and me - kept trying to call Cheaptickets, which sorta worked, but when we had to transfer to talk to Air France it disconnected. We called 7 times - and nothing worked. Also we tried to call the students - nothing worked. I did get ahold of my dad though and told him about it. I have to call him at about 2, and try to call the students again to get Benjamin or Delia's # to tell them i'm staying another week.
July 27th - So...this morning i went w/ montana tot eh airport and talked to this lady- and she fixed it!!!! i was like oh my gosh thank the Lord!! so now i don't have to sleep at the NY airport, and i get home the same day i leave - which is amazing. So...i'm in Florence by myself right now - at least until 5 - when i catch the train to Castelfiorentino again. so i'm gonna go to the internet place at like 10ish and check email, grap a bite to eat somewhere, call my dad, and just relax after that until my train to Castelfiorentino leaves at 5ish.
Dude - the dig was so much fun. sure there was hard work involved - and some tedious work,, but it was great, and i still want to be an archaeologist. :)
and the students are really cool - except i don't think they're Christians. maybe-maybe- Valeria, but that would be the only person. But they're a lot of fun, and mostly respect my wishes when drinking is concerned. i have tried sips of some stuff though lol.
We went to a pub in Monta Ione one night, and everybody was drunk except me. it was hilarious haha.
and San Gimignano was very very "romantic" italy. cool.
July 28 - Today was actually a good day. Except for almost not getting my luggage and being forgotten at the train station, i finaly found my way to Catignano and met up with everybody. it was really cool. :) And i got my luggage and found the taxi guy, so it all turned out allright. So they got me a bed, and a pillow and sheets - everything. it was amazing. i met the new group - not as commpletely diverse as mine, but good. I'm stayin w/the students now, so it should be interesting. :) Yuri and Agueda flirt way too much, but other than that its cool and everybody's a lot of fun. we went to the same bar as last week - not as lively this time haha!! but i had a Florida - nonalcoholic thing that wasn't that great lol. And i had a sip of Vale's "sex on the beach"lol, and juan's bailey's haha!!! other than joking a bit, not much else happened...oh i met this english girl - nice, but a bit shy. shyer than me anyway lol. but now im at the gym, and everybody's in bed. gnight!
July 29 - Today was a good day. we got up, went to the breakfast bar place, got ready to dig, and did more "pico y pala" haha!! and....energia, fantasia, muro muro muro!!!! lol. and we had a good lunch and had wild boar for dinner - SUPER good. and then we went to our 5 star hotel/palace haha, and the town has movies here on tues nights so we basically got kicked out. and finally the people are leaving...at midnight. so we went and got gelato, played on a playground, and danced some lol. except juan got a call that his mom was w/someone new, and he said all her men are basically jerks - so he was pretty upset. he wanted to be alone, and said that ague didn't understand him. i felt really bad. :(
July 30 - Today was also a good day. Alex - British girl - found a shield piece and a spearhead - SUPER cool. i wish she would sit with us, but she doesn't. :( But we went to the internet twice - 1st we went to the library and saw beatrice and her boyfriend there, and then later went to castelfiorentino with michele, ague, and valeria. me and ague get along really really well, and we hang out alot. :) tomorrow....i have to pack woohoo!!
july 31 - This morning we ate at the bar again, and went to the dig. we got another place this time, so we actually found things. it was amazing. Pablo found aknife and i found remains of a blacksmith thingy and ceramics. and we got italian coffee today and pear juice - gooooood stuff. :) and then we went to get gelato and went to poggibonsi again, cool stuff. they made sangria today - i had a few sips of it. but we made a club in the room and danced and joked and i basically watched the entertainment. but it was really funny - pablo and yuri were dancing really funny and then the guys danced like old men haha!! and we did a conga line haha....and another time michele, valeria and i dressed in blue and danced to the blue song....it was quite amazing. oh and we played soccer in the gym today....fun!!!
Aug 1 - That morning i got up, packed everything, and went with the students to the dig. we worked in the morning...i was in the cistern haha :) and then ate lunch and slept, and then in the afternoon worked again, and had to leave at 5. :( :( :(!!!! i said goodbye to everyone, and it was hard leaving all my italian and spanish friends...and the staff too. but me, vale, and michele all rode the train to florence, where vale was taking the train to venice to visit her family for the weekend and michele was meeting friends. i went to dinner with him and his friends after putting my luggage in the nunnery, and then realized i didn't have any money. we searched and searched for an atm or a bank that worked or that was open....and there were NONE. it was horrible. so i asked the nun to let me have a few more min. to find one, but we still couldn't find one....and the nun said i had 10 min to find a bank or else i had to stay somewhere else. AHH!! so finally michele and his friends loaned me money....70 euros!! that's like.....120 dollars. a lot. i am really grateful. and i said bye to them, and then stayed awake because i didn't want to oversleep....and then left for the airport in the morning in a taxi.
Aug. 2 - So i got up, left for the airport, and got my tickets to Paris, NY, and Miami. I left Florence and sat next to an italian girl, and we talked for a while, and i saw the Alps!!! SOOOO cool.....and then got to France and found my connecting flight to NY....and sat there for like 2 hours. this is when i saw the olympians from Senegal but didn't talk to them haha. I got on my flight and proceeded to sit next to a French guy that i don't think spoke english, but i talked to some italian guys next to him who were visiting new york. :) and i watched a whole bunch of movies on that flight too lol. at the end of the flight though, we had to circle over the airport in NY because of too much traffic and then bad weather, so we had to stop in Philly to get gas and wait till the weather got better. soo....we stayed there for like 3 hrs.....and then flew to NY. by then i'd already missed my plane, so i had to get another one....which was for the next morning haha. but there was a really really nice guy at the desk that was like, i'm willing to go the extra mile for you because grown people are sitting here crying and yelling at me, and you, a teenager are super calm. so that was really uplifting and good....made me feel better haha. so he gave me emergency seats - usually reserved for people going to funerals or something - to miami the next morning at 8:30 woohooo!!!! so i slept in the airport that night, and then got up, put deodorant on, brushed my teeth, and went to the booth. and then....flew to miami!!! YAY!!!!!!! and got home!! oh....after sitting next to an indian guy who was coughing super loud and brushing up against me. lame. but oh well. and yeah!!!
it was an AMAZING trip....and i can't wait to go back. YAY!
July 12 - So today I got to the airport, was REALLY nervous for a while, but then finally got my ticket and got through security and was alright.

We met up with Article One at the church, where we started doing wacky things, and Dave gave me a random guy as a boyfriend, which turned out to be evan. weird. ;) then...we watched a little soccer and met the other bands, and then we started the concert, which was fun. i didn't get a lot of pictures though. oh and we gave a1 the poster britt nicole signed, and mark was like...i wanted her phone number....it was funny. :)
after the concert, me and emily stayed at the vojaks and talked until 3 in the morning. it was amazing. but then we were really tired when we got up, which was about 6:30 for some reason.
Tuesday - Beach day
So...we got up at 6:30 in the morning and cleaned a bit, and then left for the beach. it was a lot of fun, especially the frisbee game and watching the guys mess around with each other. my sunglasses broke though. :( after that, we watched soccer, ate, played rummykub, and then i had to leave to pick up the vojaks, which turned out to be at 1 in the morning. so i got home at 2 haha. :)
Wed. - we just had lunch at forrey's with the guys before they left, which was really funny with matt, the waitress, and the salt...and then dave and mark tried to pick up my mom's car lol. it was pretty great. and then we said our goodbyes, and me and emily watched delta farce so we wouldn't get depressed....but we ended up being really tired so we stopped it.
thurs. - we cleaned up the church, and then went swimming woohoo...and i got sunburned. gah.
fri. - we have a meeting tomorrow at 10, and then we have band practice, and then....i have to babysit. woohoo.

two blogs in one day...crazy
so....i just got in a crash like 2 hours ago woohoo. not fun at all. so the guys that hit me were both arrested...one for the hit and run with me and a suspended license for a dui, and the other for an outstanding warrant.
God is amazing, because a whole bunch of glass flew at me and none of it cut me. i keep finding it in my shoes and my pants though lol.
my front passenger side door is basically shot though. the glass is gone though, and theres a HUGE dent lol. well, gotta go, talk to you guys later.

The last two days have been.....HECTIC.
we got to gainesville, did a WHOLE bunch of stuff, met a bunch of people, talked about majors, minors, residence halls, financial stuff, entymology, fine arts, science..............yeah. and then, we got our roommates, which mine was suuuuper cool, and had a party in the downstairs of the hall with food and music and such lol. After that, we took showers and went to our rooms, where i found out my roomate was ethiopian, really cool, a christian, and likes the exact same kind of music i do. i was happy. :) and then...we got up, ate breakfast, did some more presentation stuff about studying abroad and research, got our classes, which are anthropology, greek history, english literature from 1750 to present, and beginning italian woohoo!!, and then went on a walking tour of the swamp and the gyms and stuff...and saw Tim Tebow on his little scooter!! yay. i didn't see him at first, but all the girls were like OH MY GOSH!!! and then he sped right past me while saying hey and waving, so i kinda couldn't really miss him haha. it was cool though. :)
and then it got EXTREMELY hot, and we were all nasty and sweaty and tired by the time we got to the hub and ate lunch. then.....we did MORE presentation stuff and got our gator 1 cards, bank accounts, car decals, and other fun stuff, and finally......we ended. and went home, and then went to the vojaks, where the dog growled at me. gah. and then slept, and woke up, and the dog growled at me again. WOOHOOOOOO!!!!
yeah. so ok. bye!
