the ending (ness) of italian school... aka May 18- 24

okayy. sorry, i took a 2 day haitus there. okay! monday the 18th i studied with a few girls after school, lost my cell phone in a park in busto, only to find it later (thank gosh!) and found out some verryy interesting facts on our classroom neighboors. tuesday i had to run to take the train (always a pleasure..) only to actually get to the station and find out that a train had de-railed in sesto (which is one stop north of us) and that all trains on our line would be cancelled until wednesday! soo i was all pumped and headed home on foot, planning to go back to bed, since i had already told anna i wasn't headed to school. I get home and martina tells me that she has to go to milan, so we went to gallarate and took a train from a different line. then i had to run to school to make it in time, and hunt down this guy to sign my late pass. it was intense. That day we took a spanish writing test. and i wrote an essay on twilight, and got a 7! woohoo! That night i went to see angels and demons with Martina, Luca, Pata, Fritz and Andrea Andrea. Martina and i got kebabs beforehand and they weren't all that great, so i was sad. Ron Howard decided to not even make the movie like that book at all whatsoever, so that was dissapointing. we got home super late, and of course on wednesday morning Giana (spanish prof) decides to oral test me! partyy. so i didn't exactly pass that oral test (considering i was banking on studying wednesday night for thursday oral testing, considering i always go last, but apparently not this last time..) but it didn't hurt my average, so i'm fine. and that also saved me from the staying up really late attemtping to study thing on wednesday night. One of the girls in our class' mom is from argentina and her dad's italian, so you think she'd be suuuppper tan, but she's whiter than me. and i was like patty! i'm irish and i'm tanner than you! so we kept calling her edward because 'she's whiter than edward cullen..' so that was fun. Thursday i watched Glee, which will become my new fall obesession. Stefano thought i was anna on the phone, that was classic. On friday we had class pictures and they made me a sign that said 'What's Going On?' because that was my catchphrase this year. Luca came over and i had to edit his resume, all in english, which was quite funny. 'what does ''i would strongly deal with'' mean?...' Hayden Pannetiere got a tatto in italian down the length of her back that has words spelled wrong. classic. and her last name means breadsellers in italian. so she has become the new online joke here. I got a letter from the italian government telling me that i have to claim the 'un-identified medicinal substances' that were sent to me from america. during religion one of the girls and i decided to sneak out of school and go get gelato, but of course we saw a few prof's from our school in the center. thankfully they didn't say anything. and also, detention doesn't exist here, thank god. in 1P one of the girls threw a pen and my face and cerana called me stupid, then i corrected her english. karma's a bia. Friday after school Ornella and i tie-dyed shirts for my class for the school volleyball tournament. Saturday we had an english converstaion test, i rinsed all the tie dye's and went out with sofia and all of them to some outside bar type thing. we saw a brawl, which was super cool. then i went into gallarate with martina and all of them, and martina and i came home late, only to sit down and eat infront of the tv at like 2.30 in the morning. sunday i slept, watched secret life of an american teenager (which i don't like in english, but do in italian. weird.) and tlaked to biabia for like 2 hours. and we watched notte prima degli esami oggi! :)
