Happy Belated Birthday... To Me.

Last weekend seems like ages ago, but Tanti Auguri I'm 19! As Promised my gang and i went to Sicily for the event (It was Dani's Birthday Also) and all in all, the weekend was quite riotous.
We arrived in Sicily off our Ryan Air flight... not knowing really what to expect.
Well what we plopped into was a cushy apartment as our hotel, just blocks from the beach (which was too cold to lay out on :( but thats ok because) we had three bedrooms two bath full kitchen and patio. complete with friendly neighbor we named "Yemen" because that's where he lived before Trapani, Sicily. Yemen gave us lemons and oranges which were SOoo yummy. The Food! Because we had a kitchen we went to the GROCERY STORE and each spent 7 euros for the entire
weekend. Not including the MOST AMAZING pizza concoction any of us had ever had. So we did nothing but relax, sleep read go into a few churches, walk around the tiny little town, drink nutella cappuccinos at our free breakfast cafe and get complimented all on our "Bene l'italiano!" We all decided if Sicily wasn't where Pacino's first wife got blown up by the mob-- we'd totally live there.
Then on Sunday we had LASarah Sunday! To celebrate my birthday. Which was pretty much just a big dance party in our room for like... 5 hours. It was Epic. Just How I wanted it. Kinda like how we went to dinner dressed up too. Solidarity, Kellster!!

This week has been full of disappointments and little sleep. I had an essay due, TONS of rehearsals, legal issues with the play, POSTPONEMENT of the play :(... just for a week though,
on the brightside i think the cast is finally bonding. Better late than never!

Also picked our housing for the next semester! Kelly, Dani and I will be living with 3 other girls on the 17th floor of Lafayette Hall. This means we are surrounded by the NYU greek life... In an apartment with wooden floors, high ceilings and house parties all the time!!! PS: In one of the most expensive neighborhoods in the world. Here's a map.

Sicilian Marzipan. Well, OldLady.. Our Tomatoe Shaped
Marizan tastes like stale chrismas pinecones.
