I have absolutely no idea what I am doing, and I am going to Rome...

Greetings guys and gals! 

So, for those of you who don't already know, but still enjoy taking an interest in my life, I will be venturing to Rome, Italy this Fall for some good, ole' fashioned book learning!  Apparently, I leave in two weeks... I should really get my passport back.

At any rate, it has recently come to my attention that blogs are not lame, and are, in fact, an excellent way to keep people in the loop without actually having to talk to anyone.  I am in favor of this.  Therefore, I intend to attempt to keep up a blog documenting my crazy adventures and misadventures in Rome, which in all honesty, will probably consist of me buying toothpaste and getting lost in a park.  I'll try to update it as often as possible, but you have to understand that I might not always be doing exciting things (read: will forget about this in three weeks).  Just kidding!  I love writing about myself way too much to ever let that happen.

So, yeah.  In two weeks I'll be in Rome taking several civilization classes and Italian.  I've never taken Italian before, but I assume it's French with a different accent.  And I've taken a lot of French so they'll probably move me up to Advanced Italian immédiatement.

For the time being, that's all I really have to tell you that's of importance.  Basically, the take home message is if you ever get really bored and have exhausted both Facebook and YouTube as sources of procrastination, pray that I updated this and check it out.
