Venice

Soooo Venice was fun. Since I was there not even a year ago, I had already seen all the main places and monuments... So instead I just explored the city with my Italian friend and got a total different view of the city. The carnival was crazy, there were so so so many people there! Once I got to Venice, we ate a cute little place and I had a veggie pizza...because I LOVE PIZZA haha. Then afterwards just explored the city. People were wearing mask, costumes, wigs, and there were a lot of singing and dancing. I met some Austria girls, who were pretty cool. Got a picture with the boat guy. Had hot spice wine. Attempted to sing opera. And try to ask a question in Italian to a guy, and he asked if I spoke inglese?...and come to find out, two americans were trying to converse with each other in Italian ahhh hahah. I found it very funny.

On Sunday I had my apartment to myself, since my roommates went to torrino. I just wanted to stay home and chill. Later that evening I went out with Michele for dinner at a cool Indian place. Then went to Bar Magenta for drinks with some other Italians. It was interesting because they all conversed to each other in Italian and just sat there trying really hard to understand what they were saying. But it was fun.

I was at first hanging out with Americans when I got here in Milano, but I want to experience the culture, the people, and the language of the Italians... and I can not do that if I hang out with my American friends. Yes, I may be hanging out with a bunch of guys, if it was my choice I would be hanging out with girls... but those that know me, All girls are bitchy, and here in Italy, it's not any different. So the only Italian friends I have... are guys. They are all nice, and not at all charming like the Italians down south. So I don't have to worry about being charmed or hit on. Each day I find myself falling in love with Milano.

Amore.
