Italian Thoughts for the Soul....

Random experiences/quirks about the country of Italia:

-there is a 'nail clipping' bug right outside our window. he likes to clip his nails every night precisely when i am attempting to sleep. for awhile, i thought it was my roommate melissa trying to secretly keep her nails trimmed, but alas, it is a tiny bug who continues to chirp because he is sad that he has still not found his one true soul mate.

-dogs. dogs. they're everywhere! some are strays but most just let their dogs wander aimlessly around town. im surprised i have not seen a dead one yet.....

-bellyshirts are cool here. remember the ones we wore in middle school? (well i guess not me cause i wasnt allowed to, altho i kinda remember a scooby doo one that i wore......why i thought that was cool i have no idea) anyway, their's are a little more classy without the glitter and they have trim abs

-people are CRAZY drivers here!!! there are few lanes. people just go when they want where they want and then honk their horn if others get in the way.....i guess they are in fact excellent drivers because i have yet to see an accident.......
