Where are We, Toto?

It's meals like this that make it clear I'm not in Kansas anymore. I got a frutti di mare pizza that made me work for it. The shells were in the pizza when I opened the box-startling at first, but so delicious! And I definitely needed something good after a tough morning of no English. My teacher only spoke in Italian during class. I've never taken an Italian class before so things are moving a little too fast for what I'm used to. I hope we don't go to Lookout Point for class number three!

Once my teacher was done force-feeding us Italian we watched a movie, (in Italian of course), that was over two hours long. Granted, it was a good movie, but my leg fell asleep by the end of it. Mentally I was alert because of the cioccolotto forte I've been getting every day. It's a small cup of strong hot chocolate, I think. Honestly, I don't need to know what's in it. There could be crack in there for all I care-it is magical. And it's a good thing I was paying attention. The movie was kind of like The Three Stooges meets The Godfather tinged with the constant variables of an old black and white foreign film. Surprisingly they can fit a lot of humor into a movie about a girl who gets impregnated by her sister's fiance, whose father, upon finding out, sends the brother to kill the fiance (well, ex-fiance by that point). The mob did originate here though, so I guess you can't put anything past them.

You know when you have to go outside to get something, but it's too cold out and you're too lazy? That's how I feel right now. I need to pick up a few course packets a few minutes away, and aside from the aforementioned reasons why I don't feel like going, I am very prone to getting lost when I walk alone, and after I get my course packets I'll have to do homework. And every acclaimed procrastinator knows that to stay true to form, you should only do homework at the very last possible moment. Do I have a great work ethic or what? But there is some other work I should get started on, like my job application for a summer position at Columbia University. And I better start now since I know that the first sentence will take at least 72 hours to think of.
