Hello! 

Been a while since I last updated. I've been hanging around, mostly with family and stuff. The weather's been pretty bad lately so I haven't taken many photos or gone out much because gloomy weather makes me feel like a blob. 

I miss home a lot. As nice as it is to be here in Italy, I really miss spending time with my best friends and my boyfriend and just being with my family. I know that as soon as I got home I'd probably wish I were someplace else, but I guess that's just how it goes. 

I hope it warms up soon. Its quite different being here during the winter. I've only ever visited during the summer, and it feels a little strange to go outside in a big puffy coat, when around me many of the trees and bushes still have green leaves (and palm trees! what.) and if not for the cold gusts of wind, you'd think it was summer. 

I don't know what else there is to talk about. It would be nice if I had someone else going through the same experience with me. It kind of sucks that I'm here alone. Its harder to make friends who are my age. My cousin is the same age as me, but he acts like a big know-it-all about EVERYTHING, and I can tell that he doesn't like escorting me around everywhere, and I don't want to be a bother. 

Anyway, I suppose its a nice change from my routine at home. And when I come back I have many new changes to look forward to, so that will be good too. 

Also, I miss hockey. :|

P.S. Little Oscars blurb: Paperman won for best animated short! Yay!!! I don't think I talked about it, but I really, really loved the animation in that film. Just really a remarkable combination of 2D and 3D. Definitely deserved the award. Besides that and Christoph Waltz winning, all I cared about in relation to the Oscars were the dresses. Jennifer Lawrence in that Dior, hnnnngg such a beautiful dress god DAMN.
