Rome

There’s not much to report today. We went to the market, where I found a few things, but it really wasn’t what I expected it to be. Oh well. We’re here for another week so there will be more shopping opportunities.

This upcoming week looks like it will be exciting. We are going back to the Colosseum and the Forum, and will get to go inside this time. We are also touring CNN and the Vatican, and Saturday we are taking a trip to Florence. We decided not to go to Pisa because it is expensive, and we would only get to stay for three or four hours. We all decided that we would rather save our money for Florence and other things in Rome.

I’ve had many new experiences in Rome. A few nights ago, most of us when a bar called “Coming Out.” It was a very interesting experience. I’ve always considered myself a very tolerant person, so I ended up having a pretty good time. But, it was… very interesting.

Another thing that I would like to mention is that it is my sorority sister’s birthday today. Laura Chaney would have been 19 today. She passed away on May 11, and all of Sigma Kappa misses her so much! I’ve been thinking about her all day. Happy Birthday, Laura! We all love and miss you!
