it's the first day of march, which means i have a solid 5 months left here in padova...and time is going by so fast! this week i need to start planning my trips around europe. last semester i already traved to: Germany, Austria, Spain, and France so the main places on the list that i want to go now are: England, Ireland, Switzerland, the Netherlands, Czech Republic, and Greece. i would love to travel to all these places but lately i have been fine staying here in Padova, or at least in Italy. i realized this towards the end of the last semester that where i am has changed from an easy opportunity to travel all over europe to where i live, feeling more like home. i like the idea of traveling but not of being outside of italy most weekends.
Lizelle and i have been wanting to go visit Estelle in England and this month was supposed to be it because she has to take her last vacation days before april, but now it turns out she has none left. and we also found some Sounds concerts in England around the end of this month that would be super fun to go to...but now i also found out that the last week in march our friend Paola from eap last semester is coming to the Netherlands and we wanted to meet up with her...eh, dilemma. i have to start looking for cheap flights this week.
the classes on friday didnt really work out, so i just walked around centro with Lizelle and Talin and we got gelato at one of the best1euro places in the city, Patagonia. then we came back to our apartment and Sue and Steph came over to watch Slumdog Millionaire. it was my third time watching it now, and it is amazing every time. i love that movie and i want the soundtrack :) we went for dinner at our fav chinese restaurant Shanghai where i had delish bamboo and mushrooms. a table near us got fried gelato and the waiter lit it on fire so that was pretty sweet. this restaurant has great food and a great ambience, with a glass bottom floor that houses a pond with koi fish...
i am trying to get back into my goal of working on some kind of art each day, so this weekend i have been working on a new piece. saturday night we went to Steph's for a dinner party and she made an amazing meal of herbed polenta, veggies and cheese in a red sauce, and panecotta with strawberries for dessert. it was all so good...and then we watched casino royale.
my internet runs on a monthly amount of hours and i am running low on the amount i have left until it renews again on the 13th so this week when i'm not in classes i will probably spend a lot of time in the study center using the free wireless to look up flights and stuff. enough boringness,
a presto.
ps random thought. i realized that i have not seen any roadkill here...i dont drive but i do ride my bike in the road and i have not seen any dead animals in the road. just a really random difference that i thought of, haha
