Week of Nov 10 - Nov 16


Ok, so we already went over my Paris/London trip! So that puts us at Wednesday of this week...so lets see...

I had work and it doesn't look like I did too much else exciting!

Thursday I had work again and registered for classes.

Friday I had work again and then went over to the Boy's apartment (Ben, Massie, and Dennis) for dinner with Marcela and Alison. The food was yummy and we played cards until like 4am when we took a cab back to Marcela's and Alison and I spent the night! Oh hahaha...this was the night Alison said to the cab driver "Scriviamoci!" hahaha which means "Let's write to each other!" The most ridiculous word...haha I think he was quite excited.

Saturday we (Alison, Marcela and I) decided to get brunch at California Bakery which was delicous. It serves American style breakfast and various other foods...We got served a bread basket with bagels and orange juice. Then, I had smoked salmon and a poached egg with hollandaise sauce on a ciabbatta bun. DIVINE. Haha...then as we're finishing up, this old Italian lady comes up to us and points to the empty chair at our table...
"Oh! Go ahead!" Alison says, assuming she wants to take the chair...Oh no. She sits down. Haha! We all sortof looked around and didn't know what to do. She just sat down and ordered coffee and a muffin hahaha. It was so funny. She was really cute actually, just all a bit random? So, we continued our conversation and she just sat there quietly and stared at us. Lol...Marcela couldn't get a sentence out anymore because she couldn't concentrate, it was so funny haha.

After brunch we walked around Ticenese which is a really cool area. We walked around vintage stores and found a Hello Kitty store...and then...we found Christmas Village! Which was this huge warehouse type space with a massive Christmas display! It was like a walk through store with different scenes and decorations. It was really cute! and fun and Christmassy!

Afterwards, apparently I went to the Gym haha...good...then Alison and I watched the old Italian Job and ate icecream

Sunday the weather was beautiful again! So I met Marcela and her friend and we finally did the Duomo rooftop tour which was amazing! It was so beautiful. Then we took a walk around the Castello and go some Gelato. We walked around Corso Buenos Aires and I went over to Marcela's. I was planning on grabbing some lunch and then leaving...but I realized that for once, I had nothing to do! So, I hung out and then Rachel and Jocelyn and Maureen all came home and Katie made dinner!

A nice relaxing weekend :)
