engaged!

August 21st, 2008

So Math came to Firenze, and within 6 hours of being here, Math proposed to me. I said yes, of course! I will save details for later, it just seems to weird to go into the story on a blog. I wish I could call each and everyone of you! But I must admit I do not have all of your phone numbers.

We have been having a lot of fun. It’s really exciting because I’m able to show math what I do every day, how I eat, and being able to tell him all the stuff I have learned here. Its also refreshing to go to museums with him. I have mostly been going to museums by myself since I got here. In some ways its nice because I can do whatever I want. But it was really great to bounce ideas around about the paintings.

So far we have seen Santa Croce, the Duomo, Uffizi, Academia (DAVID!!), San Marco, San Annuziata, San Lorenzo chapel, multiple small churches and have eaten some realllly good gelato. We also managed to find a record store that has totally rare stuff. Although it was very over priced it was fun to look at all of the albums.

We also we went to an opera/organ concert. It was pretty exciting even though both of us were tired, and the church was hott. It was strange because there was this dog that kept barking during the songs, inside the church. I dont really know why that happened.

Tonight we are going to go out and get a nice dinner. We decided we will do the whole Italian dinner thing! I hope to be ridiculously full when I come home!

Tmw we will travel outside of Firenze, hopefully to Lucca to see St. Zita! Wohooo! Also this weekend we will head to Rome to visit the normal attractions.
