Today was pretty crazy. I have my going away party tomorrow so there was a lot of cooking and cleaning going on. All of my extended family is going to be there. It makes everything feel so real. Its the last time ill see a lot of them for a long time. No Thanksgiving together, or Christmas. Its a lot to take in. But on the bright side I'm having a huge tiramisu at my party! If you don't know already, I LOVE FOOD. So I'm pretty much guaranteed to come back from Italy even fatter than when I left. But indulging in great food is all a part of la dolce vita.

So after a day of worry and stress I did what any girl would do, get a mani pedi and watch Disney movies! I'm almost done shopping for everything I need. I just need some winter clothes and my ipod! Its so close I can almost taste it, kind of like my tiramisu.. 11 days.
