in honor of sr. adam

well, adam said he wanted a post and that he knew i was doing cool stuff. so in his honor i'm going to create what could be the most mundane post ever.

first off, i purchased a gym membership sometime over the weekend. it's about a 5 minute jog from my house, so i go in the mornings now. loads of fun. i'm starting to get recognized by the regulars, maybe one of these days i'll actually talk to somebody.

i used to get this cereal that was granola with various types of fruit. but then donatella couldn't find it at the store, so she got me another sort of granola that is not crunchy but does have 40% fruit content by volume. that's pretty crazy. so i do put milk in it. who would have thought that i would never put milk in my cereal until i come to italy where they have hardly any cereal and the milk is horrible and kept in boxes?

jamal and i found a bball court and we have been playing that from time to time. i was the victor in a couple of our games of cavallo. but he won when we tricked some girls into coming to play with us and we played a game. anyhow who would have imagined that the first time i'd consistently play basketball since middle school would be while i'm in italy, where nobody plays?

after the bball we went to a movie. it was decent but nobody could really understand much. how long does it stinking take to achieve fluency?

i guess this is pretty boring to, but we're going to milan on friday. i mean, who wants to go to milan right? by the way sometime in march we're going to go see the milan soccer team play some brit soccer team. i am under the impression that that will be crazy, and i'm half expecting to get mudered in a riot. especially since jamal claims that he'll be rooting for the UK team. so if you never see me again except perhaps on the news in an ambulance, you know why.

i don't know what else. jamal's italian mom is still crazy. italian class is still easy, no matter what the other people say. we choose actual courses soon. i am thinking of taking an extremely heavy load this semester - 2 classes. mmmmmm.
