Monday was my birthday...unfortunately I had 6 hours of class and homework due. So while I was typing up questions for polisci I hear giggles outside and Angel and Jenny burst in and throw balloons all over the room and sing "Happy Birthday" to me. They also gave me a card with an adorable fat giraffe for me and a poem inside! It goes,"Dear Jordan, It's your birthday
And we're proud to say
That you're a great appartemento-mate,
All of us living together must be fate!
Tu, Jordan Garegnani hai 20 anni,

Watch out world, she's gonna get all the great uomini.
We're glad that we can celebrate with you and show you how much we care,
If needed, we'd give up Mama Lo's dinner for you,
Finding someone like that is very rare." :)
The day of my birthday was not very exciting with all of my classes and my nap after. However, the night was just great. Some of the girls and I went off to Dante's (the usual birthday spot for JMU kids) where we had great pasta and lots of free drinks :) We then of course went to get Gelatto and then this sweet bar called Naima.

The next day was a continuation of my birthday because our faculty in residence got a cake and some bottles of prosecco to toast with all the girls and some of the faculty. Then of course dinner was fantastic at Mamma Lo's with spaghetti and clams and Shepherd's Pie and salad...nom nom nom. We even had dessert! We're going to Assisi this weekend and the beach nearby. I'll let you know all about it. A domani!
