The Sights, The Sounds....The Smells??

So lets start this blog off right. With a depressing story. Just the way I like it. ;]
I sliced my finger open on a can last night. That was loads of fun. I was opening the can and I look down and my finger is bleeding A LOT...what? So I run it under some water, which got really hot while I was doing that. That didn't make it feel any better. And then searched the apartment for some Neosporin and a band-aid. Which I did happen to find! My luck is lookin' up! (wait...except for that part about my cut finger). But I guess I should have expected it. I have kitchen accidents in the states...I should have at least one while here. Ya know just to make me feel really at home! At least it was just a cut finger instead of...lets say...the whole apartment being on fire. :]

It would be quite sad if our apartment caught on fire. I do like it so. I mean. It's where I'm living. We have three bedrooms, there are five of us in the apartment. And really it's not that big, but we haven't had a problem yet of getting in each other's way too much and it's already been a month so I'd say we're doing pretty good! Our kitchen is bigger than our "living room" which i find humorous, and definitely what I would have stereotyped. But our table pretty much takes up the whole space. So what I was getting to. We have this little porch attached to our Kitchen. It is really neat. And we were very much looking forward to actually using it. (All the other girls were jealous). Until we did try to use it once. Lets just say it smells. It actually smells so bad it makes the whole apartment stink if we even open the doors. Haha. I've never seen the floors above us open the windows that face into this little area, probably because it does the same thing to their apartments. So needless to say, we have this lovely little area...out of use! Be glad that video and pictures do not send smell. Because our porch is definitely not the only place that smells in Florence. And it seems that the city smells worse for every day it gets hotter. Haha.

Now I shouldn't have a whole blog complaining about Florence. Because I absolutely love it here. I don't think I'm coming home...You guys can all just come here. :]

Oh. I'm going to Rome on Friday morning! I'll be back Sunday sometime. We're going to run around like mad women and see everything! YAY for tourists. Haha.
