Day Ninety-Nine.

  • Woke up.
  • Finished my box of cereal.
  • Last Econ. class!!!
  • Got out of class early (no group meetings) and went back to the apartment after stopping at IN's for yogurt (for breakfast and dinner) and toilet paper.
  • Watched last night's episode of Modern Family.
  • Lunch. Wasn't too good.
  • Back to the apartment.
  • Napped.
  • Went out for gelato and shopping with Kate and Erin--we found gifts for Erin to give her nephew.
  • Played a game with a friend online.
  • Read over our rough draft for the Econ. paper.
  • Got an outfit together for the Film Festival event.
  • Had dinner--yogurt and gouda with crackers.
  • Walked over to the boys' to meet everyone to walk over to the Ferrero convention center.
  • Got to the convention center around 8:30 and stood in the lobby awkwardly as people took pictures at us and generally stared. Then Dan told us we would be going on stage, introducing ourselves and saying a little something to the audience.
  • Went backstage and waited for Prof Mignone to introduce us. Walked on stage and each of us said our name and most people just said thank you. I said my name and "Buon divertimento" which means "good entertainment" which Dino said was a typical thing to say before a showing of a film. Everyone laughed and clapped a little louder after I said mine but that might be because I was last to go and they were applauding for us in general. Then we stood awkwardly on the stage, not knowing where to look in the audience, while Prof Mignone said other stuff (in Italian). Then we left the stage, snuck into the back of the auditorium, and watched our films. People seemed to like them well enough but we all felt really, really silly. Then we got to leave because the rest of the event was in Italian and we would have been extremely confused and bored.
  • Long walk back to the apartment.
  • Computer and getting ready for bed.
  • Blogs.
  • Bed!! Sleeping in tomorrow!!!
  • ONLY ONE FULL DAY LEFT!
