looking back
I’ve been having really strange dreams lately. I’m not actually sure at all what they are about, but I know that in a few of them I was back in Italy. So.. not really related to that at all but just because I am distracting myself from doing more productive things (namely, going to bed)… I decided to put together a random selection of some of my favorite Italy pics… non-people pics.
also, even tho it’s late because I dont write in here all that often… gotta say HAPPY BIRTHDAY to Dan… which was a couple of days ago! another one thats 21! AND, since there are so many people getting married these days, or at least setting the date, gotta say congrats (or good luck or best wishes or whatever it is you say to people getting married) to all of them (i dont think i can even list them all…wow…its crazy)!
But anyway… here are some of my favorite pictures and places:
View of Siena and the hills of Toscana from the tower in Siena
Another view from the tower…. Il Campo
Part of Cinque Terre…. definately one of the most beautiful places in the world
A random church in Pisa
Sunset on the bridge that takes you to the Leaning Tower
Lucca… a small city with it’s walls still perfectly intact
Staircase in Genova
Sunny day in Firenze
On the same day in Florence
The car Enzo Ferrari tributed to his son Dino at the Ferrari Museum
Part of a random student protest in Bologna, home of the oldest university in the world
Inside Il Grotto Azzuro on Capri
The haunted fountain (as Cindy and I like to call it) in Empoli

Sunny day overlooking the Alps

well, that’s all for now… im going to go do some ochem and go to sleep! tomorrow is friday… the boys are heading off to vegas, so we’re having a GIRLS NIGHT… that is, after I once again have class until 8pm on friday. good times
oh, I amost forgot… today, Kendra and I were having a discussion about the difference between Topher, Jake, and Tobey (dont feel like doing last names)… and even thought I may be able to tell the difference between them when I look at their pictures. this kendra failed after I made her this:
but yea, it really is true… i can tell if it’s topher (probably just because I think his name is so awesome) but the other two i really do get mixed up. we looked at their filmographies… and i could have sworn that some of them were wrong.. ha, all along I thought it was the other one in certain movies. and, actually, for a while i just thought they were the exact same person.
