I Waited Too Long and Now I Don't Remember What I Was Going To Write About

Edit: This was supposed to be posted before the Switzerland post, but I forgot, so now it's awkwardly published after. So just know that everything you read was written like a week ago. Okay, carry on...

I know that I've been planning a blog post for this week but now I can't remember what I wanted to say. I know that on Sunday I went to mass for the first time in a long time (aside from Christmas and my grandma's memorial) and it was something that I really needed. Our priest said, and I quote, "there is nothing you can do to make God love you less." Meaning that God loves all people, and gives the same amount of love to everyone, no matter who you are. He, also, and I quote, said, "God has the same amount of love for the Virgin Mary as he did for Hitler." The point is that God loves literally every single person on earth with the same amount of love. And I think that we should too (or at least show the same amount of compassion). There's a certain comfort knowing that you are receive infinite amount of love just for being you and for making mistakes. Obviously some people would take this as being able to do whatever they want because it won't change God's love, but in a way, it makes me want to be an even better person.

Moving on from the cheese...

My roommate and I used to have another roommate here in Florence but she had to go home, so now we have three beds. Naturally, we put all three of them to make the ultimate bed! See below...it's awesome. 

We've also been super paranoid because we have been told about bed bugs recently because there has been quite an epidemic and they are a REAL THING. One night I found a couple bug bites on my shoulder and I started scratching even though they didn't feel itchy, I just knew they were there so I was always thinking about them. Then I would look around my bed, in my sheets, and under my mattress just constantly searching for bed bugs, but seeing nothing, but also not entirely sure what I was looking for. So both my roommate and I were freaking out, totally joking about it, but just unsettled. Fortunately (and you know bed bugs are bad when I say what I'm about to say) we found that we had a mosquito in our room! yesssss

Again, wasn't sure what I was going to write about before. I think I was going to talk about classes. Some of them are good. English is great because we started out by reading Greek mythology and it's so interesting! All of the Gods are completely ridiculous and horny buttt it makes the stories entertaining for sure! 

Sorry this post is boring, but Switzerland and Rome are much more interesting. Read those! Or read a book! Why are you reading this anyways?
