A Most Italian Send-Off

Figured I'd update this in the last 3 days I have left...as I sit in the sun on the terrace overlooking Firenze, and the Duomo. chea.

I had my last wine class yesteday. We took our final and at the end he told us that he is sad that we were leaving, because now after so long he will miss us. He was one of my favorite teachers. And that class was great, and will be the only one i save my notes from..besides graphic but that doesnt really count.
Today was my last Graphic Design class, and i really really am going to miss it. It was my favorite class, even though it was my most challenging. I learned a lot, and the girls that I sat near were really sweet, so it made it nice. As a last class deal, Paulo and Giovanna went out and bought us all little mini pizzas, yummy salted bread cooked in olive oil, and Spumanti, which is basically like Red Wine champagne. It was great, and all I could think of was how in the states this would be the equivalent to dunkin Donuts Munchkins and some OJ. Hence, another reason why Italy scores a point. So he toasted to us, as being a great class, and we all said our goodbyes, and it was sad.
Italian also ended today. I got a B on my final, which i thought was pretty great considering the amount of studying i did. I kinda kick myself, because I feel like if i had actually studied, i would have done well and may have picked up alot more of the language than i did. but, that didnt happen so...va bene. She took a picture with the class at the end and told us to FB friend her. lol.
Tomorrow I have my last two finals/classes and then its peace out Junior year, and hello summer/America.
weird.
