We're here!

So I arrived in Italy not too long ago. I haven't been close to a computer in a while,because my mom's is dead and we have no way of charging it since we don't yet have a converter. It's nice here,and you can walk EVERYWHERE! It's really nice here,weather wise,it's not too hot,not too cold. And you warm up by walking. I went to an Itallian Chinese resturant last night,boy do I miss American Chinese! I ordered Orange Chicken and it was deep fried chicken covered in a thick orange juice with an orange on top. But they fried rice was good! Everyone here lives in appartment looking things,and they're actually really nice! Very rarely will you see an actual house. You see them as often as you see... Well I don't know,but not often at all! Our house or as you would call it,our appartment,is the perfect size. Did I mention they don't have closets?! Yeah,big shock there. I mean,this is one of the shopping capitals of the world,and no closets,ironic eh? I have learned a few words in Italian! Just the basics: sorry,thank you,excuse me,hello. Not too hard. People don't waste space here,so Tommy said that everyday they go to the market and get their daily supply of food,therefore they don't have refrigirators. So me and Tommy went and bought our daily food,nachos! Mmmm,all the supplies are now sitting in the fridge,un-prepared. But we tried! Hahaha. It's so weird to me walking down the street and not understanding what anyone is saying,it's crazy really. Everybody walking on the streets looks like they're on their way to a photoshoot. The clothing style isn't really all that different from America. They wear boots with tights and dresses,most all of them! Everything looks so old,and it will take a little getting used to. So I'll pst as often as I can to keep you updated on this amazing journey I'm fixing to take! Oh,and Amy... I saw the CUTEST scarf,and... It's Fendi(;
