I'm waving the white flag...

I've been delaying my acceptance of this whole blog phenomenon for as long as possible. At the advice and persuasion of my professor, Dick Puffer, I have decided to surrender in my fight to withstand the blogging craze. Even though we were asked to create a blog and post a story for a class, I just couldn't think of anything interesting enough to share with the world, because in all honesty, who really cares? {Hey mom and dad =) }.

Now, that I'm getting ready to leave for Italy, I'm pretty sure I'll have lots of great ideas to share with everyone connected through the sprawling universe known as the internet. At least I hope I'll have lots to write home about... if not, I think we've probably wasted a lot of money.

Just for starters... I'm going to Italy to study dance with ProDanza ITALIA. It is a month long program July2-July30. I will officially be gone Jund 30-August 2. I'll be living in a villa in Castiglioncello, Italy. It is a beach community in the Tuscany region. On the way home I'll be stopping in Florence and Rome. While I'm there there will probably be a few weekend trips to towns like Volterra, Siena, Pisa, maybe more. This will be my third time in Italy, but my first time being independant, without a school group. I can't wait to be there. I love Italy.

So the next time I report.. I should be there, or at least getting close. The website for the dance program I'm studying with is http://www.prodanzaitalia.com/ , check it out.
