Day 13
I slept in and made it to my only class of the day (my 9am was pushed back to Friday) at 1:30. It was a good day.
Florence does not have spearmint tea. I've tried a bunch of different places and finally gave up. I settled for a green tea/peppermint blend. It's ok but my $6 Walmart spearmint was better. It's hard to find specific things because the distribution among stores is different. Like my facewash hunt was impossible and I don't know where to look for non roll-on deodorant or normal folders. Yelp is not that helpful when looking for spearmint tea or a tea strainer specifically and Google usually just returns Amazon results or something.
Since it was my roommates birthday, we went out for dinner. We got wine and, for the second time now, I got Hawaiian and I have to say I actually think Domino's does it better. That may be a travesty. Before we left, we mentioned that it was her birthday and they gave us free shots. Then we went to her favorite bar, Bamboo, where we got more free shots and ordered drinks. It ended a lot better than you might imagine: right after she officially turned 21, we soberly walked ourselves back to the home base. I sat down on my bed because I was tired and immediately fell asleep, coat on and all (except I did bother to take my Docs off)... we all had important things planned. I had class and then was leaving for Rome, and they were jetting off to Paris and Brussels. I don't think I ever introduced my roommates- or my apartment or my school or anything. Oh well I'll start here! I've known Alex since elementary school even though we kind of lost touch in high school and college. She and I share a room, while Katie and Julianna are down the hall. It was Katie's birthday and she's going to celebrate in Paris. Alex is going to Brussels with our group of travel buddies and I would've too but I realized I didn't care enough and wanted to go to Rome instead!
