soo i know i need to catch everyone up because it has been a few days.
thursday night me and my friends from villanova went to a place called scholars and it was closed for a private irish wedding reception...but i asked to guard at the door if we could go in and he let us slip by. we were a little out of place because everyone was in tuxedos and prom looking dresses and i was in my jeans and alpha chi tee shirt. but there was all this really fun american music playing like "sweet caroline oh oh ohhhh" "dont stop believingggg" okay. you get the picture. and everyone from age 15-75 were dancing and singing and it was soo funny and fun. they knew we werent supposed to be there but they just acted like we were all best friends anyway. one lady tried to arrange a marriage between me and her son back in ireland. i agreed bc i figured his accent would be enough to love him for the rest of my life.
friday night i went with everyone at jcu on a night tour through rome where we stopped at various places and hung out. i have really enjoyed getting to know everyone else at jcu. there are a lot of really nice kids that have let me tag a long with them whenever and always call me when they go somewhere which is really nice because my room mates dont really like to branch out very much. later on me and my friend lindsey from clemson went and ate pizza and it was yummm
ohh and friday afternoon me and kim found a place that had real strawberry milkshakes and it was really exciting.
today i went white water rafting and it was SO MUCH FUN! besides the fact that i thought i was going to die the whole entire time. we saw some really big water falls that were so beautiful. me and the girls in my raft had a guide named luigi and he was halarious. he just made fun of us and yelled at us the whole time, it was a riot. we hit a really big rapid and it dunked my side of the boat under and the girl behind me fell out and i fell out but had a death grip on some part of the raft and refused to go in that water and somehow pulled myself back in. in my mind at the time it was a life or death situation...luigi was just laughing histerically in the back...at the end he made us jump out and swim to shore (the water was like ice) we all obeyed and jumped in screaming and soon realized that none of the other guides made there rafts jump in and swim ha ha.
me and sallie are about to go to the girls that were in our rafts apartment across the street and eat dinner.
well hope that fills you in for now!!! miss you all.
A Presto~
