every day is closer to the day i leave

So...
5 days until i leave for Ascoli Piceno.
i picked up one of the most important peices of paraphenalia for this trip; Steve's Bike Box.

i really talked myself into taking my bike so if i was unable to bring it along, i think i would have been sorely disapointed. i would have had fun but i was banking on cycling in Italy from day one.

apparently i have always wanted to go to Italy. my mom siad that ever since i was little, maybe ten or so, i always talked about Italy, about Rome and other Italian things. in high school, when it came to the grades that you had to select a foreign language, i bitched and whined about Italian not being offered.
so this trip better not suck, or i better not die in a plane crash. or get murdered by a roommate.

i will miss the following things:
- Friends and family (obviously)
- Turkey sandwiches
- Dorritos
there are probably many things that i will miss, but i slightly hungry right now so food is on my mind

Things i will not miss:
- WORKING for a whole semester!
i suppose that's it for now.

Hopefully you'll be able to find an ample supply of McDonalds and Starbucks to help you survive. I understand the native food is rather dull and flavorless.

Keep your chin up.....you'll be back home scarfing down Arby's in no time.
