I started college on Wednesday. It sucked cuz I have all my classes on Wednesdays. Except I didn't have to go to my last class, which was a 3 hr. long lab. Then on Thursday, I only had one class, so I spent an hour going up there AND an hour coming back, and I didn't have the class that day too! RAAAAAUUURGH!!! I wasted almost 3 hours!!! Oh yeah, BTW, I go to the University of Utah and take the trax up cuz it's free for students. Find me if you can! Then yesterday (Friday) I had an hour till my next class but I ended up helping this old lady who was a Spanish tutor. I helped her w/ some English grammar stuff and showed her on a map where she had to go. I think she thought that I was Spanish or somethin' cuz I have dark hair. Anyways, only 2 more journal entries left!
June 24, 2006-
Today Marco and Fratica (yaay) came and took us up to the mountains. It was really misty and green up there. We were (are) going to go see an old castley-fort up there. There was a loud barking dog up there (who was quite nice actually). We got out tickets and got a tour of the castle.
I found out that it was used for many battles. The French built it first, but then after lots of battles the Italians got it. It was in an extremely strategic spot so it was used in too many battles. It was also used as a prison and army camp in World War I and II. The castle was on a really steep mountain so you couldn't just climb up it if you were invading. It had many cannons aligned around it too. After about 2 hours of that, we grabbed some hams and cheeses and bread and went over to Marco's "other" home. It was really close to the castle. It was a beautiful spot with a nice little garden (which Italians do not have!). 
We sat down and ate an extremely DELICIOUS meal. It was superb! It was ham stuff with bread sticks with a bit of cheese (you made it yourself). Please excuse my handwriting because I am again writing on a cat. After eating, we took a nap (duration is unknown) and then went back to the city. We waited for stuff for a few hours, and I checked my grades on the computer. I have straight A's! (With a few B's; 3.) After that we went out to do...stuff. 
I got really bored and depressed (for some reason) so my dad (plus Marco and Fratica) took me home on a taxi. While going I listened to some cool tunes. What kinda sucked though was that we got in a wreck. Some car was pulling a U-turn when we had the Right of Way so we hit. It wasn't that bad though. The taxi lost one of it's tire rims and got a dent while the other car got a big ol' dent in the bumper. The bumper came loose too. It was a good thing I came with my dad and those guys because it was a long way home. We walked for about 15 minutes then I went to sleep. My dad went back out.
