no more coke. or dupolo's.

the other night we cooked our own pizza! we made the dough and everything! it was delish!

today was the day: i gave up coke. again. and dupolo's (my favorite candy over here). im getting my fat back. that is NOT a good thing.

besides that terrible part of my day, today was great. im battling a cold, along with half of our group...and my nose drips all day, but it was still a great day :) i went to cooking class where we made some banging food-lets see: zucchini wrapped around monzorella cheese topped with bread crumbs and anchovies blended. ummm. then we made bruchetta topped with italian sausage and melted cheese. and to top things off-we fried chicken, mixed with zucchini, peppers, and onions and wrapped it all in dough then cooked it. we pigged out afterwords. it was amazingggg..

we had another soccer game tonight. it was pretty crazy. i scored a goal, and got a super huge strawberry on my right thigh from the turf-you would think i would know better than to slide tackle on turf, but i cant seem to hold back. but, after going into PK's in the end when it was tied, we lost :( sadddd...

fortunately, that is not the end of the season. we play every wednesday night-but we are eliminated from the tournament now. tomorrow night we have a soccer party at the lyons club! woo hoo! they are doing some awards and prizes and such.

i spent the past hour or so with ryan trading music on itunes-now my library is filling back up. its great. so im pretty pumped about that-and about the fact that i found an app that can control my computer when im not at it. i love apple.

lets see, whats new around here? not too much else. trying to make it through this week for a weekend vacation. it was ryans birthday yesterday, but we arn't celebrating until thursday...dinner and dancing! woo! friday we are going to orvieto at the crack of dawn. and saturday ashley and i leave for england until tuesday! yay!

time sure is flying by over here. we are already 1/3 of the way done-that stinks! its been so awesome here in italy. truly life changing.

i am semi-learning how to cook. considering my roommates staged an intervention with me concerning the fact that i can only eat oreo's, corn flakes, and hamburgers. haha. so tonight i whipped up something of my own-and it was GOOD. i sauteed zucchini and onions, mixed them in a tomato sauce sprinkled with oregano and salt, and put it all over noodles. ummm ummm. tomorrow night the soccer clan will be going to Gusta pizza (that best place i was telling you about) for dinner before our awards ceremony thingy.

well, i guess i will try to get to bed for tonight. seems like i cant sleep. blahhh. thats what not feeling well will do to you! i finally finished my presentation that i have to present in the morning-i actually did some homework! yay!

goodnight!
