update: didn't paint my nails or make new playlists, but did watch mad men! last "texas" meal: biscuit from whataburger. current mood: ready to go! first stop: spring branch, texas to hitch a ride with my dear friend brianna guidorzi; second stop: houston; third stop: paris; finalmente arriverò in roma (texas time 5:00 a.m. tuesday morning)! arrivederci america!

anticipation!

in my anticipation for the trip, i'll probably be up all night watching mad men on dvd and throwing last minute knick-knacks into my suitcase that i definitely don't need.

i still want to paint my nails before tomorrow and make some new playlists for my i-pod so we'll see how that goes...i'm not sure what color to choose just yet, although i'm leaning toward a red or pink to get in the roman summer mood. i just want to tell everyone before i leave, in case it takes a couple of days to update the blog, that i will miss you all and will attempt to send as many postcards as possible :) arrivederci!
