Italy and life's other adventures

This started off as my blog to write about my study abroad experience in Italy... but now that Im back in the states I use it to write my random insightful thoughts... ok more random than insightful :)

Random

Ive been thinking about blogging for awhile. Does anyone else have this problem-you want to blog, but nothing you have to say seems insightful? or you think of things to say, but you arent near the computer. Both are a common problem with me. OR you have something to say but its like one thing-hardly even worth a blog... SO in order to solve 2 of the 3 problems Im just going to blog about random things-totally not related and totally the way i roll...

First things first---things ive learned in my 23 years
1-dont think that just because you make life plans-thats how your life is going to go. There have been several things I think 'Ok this is whats going to happen in the next 5-10 years' and it either doesnt happen, it doesnt happen the way i think it will, i realize i dont want it to go that way, or i have NO idea what i want.
2-RUNNING sucks! i hate it, plain and simple--except for usually a 3-5 minute window where i think this is fun... then i get bored or i start cramping, YET its the best way for me to get in shape
3- drinking while laying down on a couch, not a good idea-it often leads to spillage.. usually on myself
4-God is pretty awesome at giving you friends when you need them. one leaves your life and another one is there waiting-ok not always waiting, but close enough
5-The one day you dont being ice out-thats when people need it
6-Verona is not on the way to Piacenzia from Milano.
7-You will always want your mom when youre sick


ok new topic: a few of my favorites:
Tv show: the office, SVU, Pushing Daisies, Bones
word: myositis ossificans (ok thats two sorry)
weather: cool and rainy (as long as i have rain pants/jacket)
drink: cherry ski
art: Starry Night (painting) Triumph of Christianity (painting) La Pietra (sculpture)
sport: soccer
article of clothing: hoodies and socks
board game: Monopoly-our family has like 9 versions between us all-not all authentic monopolys, Illini, Army, Disney/Pixar, two star wars (original/new), minnesota, owatonna, jr, regular, I think im missing one or two...
song of the moment: sugar we're doing down by fall out boy and viva la vida by coldplay... and anything off the mamma mia soundtrack


one more random look into my life:

fun fact: the whole reason i want to visit Reykjavik, Iceland is because i think the name of the town is awesome. someday i'll have to look into what is actually in Reykjavik... ok its not really a "town" its the largest city in iceland-also the capital... good to know-just looked...
