The Finals

Finals
I am almost finished with my finals! I have two more tomorrow and then I am done forever. Now that going home is only a few days away and I have been sitting around studying, time seems to pass slowly.
Yesterday after one of my classes I randomly went to the San Lorenzo chapel and then to the Uffizi for a second time. Luckily Zena and Lauren were hungry when I got home, so we went to Mesopotamia kebobs to get doners. Zena and I then shared a half-price container of gelato. I am going to miss the gelato!!! My new favorite is ciocolatte fondente. It is practically cold, rich dark chocolate.
I also got a package yesterday! Andrew sent me 2 cds and a few letters. I had been worried that it wouldn't come so I was extremely excited when I finally got it. The cds had some music that I have not heard from being out of the country for a semester. It made me realize how much I will need to catch up on after being away from America for only a month.
I will be going home early Sunday morning. Zena and I will have to catch a cab to the airport at about 4:45 in order to make my 8am flight. I will fly to London, then to Houston, and then home to Abilene. It is going to be a pain going through customs and having to cart two suitcases around the airport. I will be traveling all day and won't get home until 11pm. I just want that day to be over! At least the flight on British Airways will not be as ghetto as I am used to on Ryanair.
Tonight is Jessica's last night with us in Florence. After her final tomorrow she will be leaving on an overnight train on a one week backpacking tour of Europe with one of her friends from back home. I can't believe the semester is actually over. Only now is it hitting home with her leaving us so soon. I am going to miss her with her stories of Tennessee and sweet tea!!!
Between now and leaving on Sunday I do not have too much planned. Tonight at some point I will have to study with Paul for our two finals tomorrow. After my finals I am not sure what to do. I am saving 15 euros for the cab to the airport, so I have to survive on about 10 euros between now and my departure. There is an amazing chinese place right next to my apartment that I will probably live off of because it is pretty cheap. I am sure I will be walking around Florence until I drop up until I leave. That and trying to pack all my souvenirs and clothes into two suitcases. I will have to donate a lot of my clothes. I am sure my suitcases will be overweight...sorry mom and dad.
