a day in the perugian life.

Breath-taking views WHEREVER you go.

One of the original Etruscan gates that used to be the entrance to the city.

Again with the breath-taking views.

These cats legit just chill on the streets in my neighborhood. There are a few different ones. One with a crick neck, one that's clearly preggo, and this one, who likes to sit on top of the cars.

They have boxed wine in Italy, too. 1.50 Euro, thanks very much.

Drinking wine, planning trips, a casual Tuesday night in Perugia.

Fancy restaurant wine with our meter-long pizza. (Wine basically goes with every meal here. They drink it like water.)

Good friends with our meter-long margharita pizza, before demolishing it in 19 minutes flat.

DONE.
5 girls, 2 bottles of wine, 1 meter of pizza, 19 minutes.
BAMF

The colors can represent different types of feelings on the spectrum.  Blue: low energy/unpleasant=sad, depressed, sulky, tired, etc. Green: low energy/pleasant=happy, content, peaceful, calm, etc. Yellow: high energy/pleasant=excited, surprised, enthusiastic, etc. Red: high energy/unpleasant=angry, frustrated, annoyed, etc. In our classroom this year, we are going to start the year off by learning about this spectrum of emotions-->the mood meter. We'll discuss what the different colors represent, what someone looks like when they're feeling each emotion, what you feel like doing whe...

set goalz make moneyyyyy

(scratch the making money part, I mean who are we really kidding) I've been thinking a lot about goals for my 24th year. If there's ANYTHING this rough, rough, but rewarding year has taught me, it's the importance of taking care of myself and prioritizing the activities and people that make me the happiest and best me. I was reading one of those buzzfeed blog list things that are always floating around facebook and it was a list of things all women should have before they turn 25. Aside from the usuals (a little black dress in the closet, an idea of what they want from a relationship, a steady income, blah blah blah), it said that every young woman should have a HOBBY.
