Tomorrow is 21/12/12 or 12/21/12 depending on how you write it. Anyway, it's the Mayan end of the world, or maybe just a change...anyway, as I said at dinner, if the world did end tomorrow, for me, it would be sad, but also okay. It's sad for the obvious reason, that when I said goodbye to my parents on september 5th in New York, hugged them, it was the last time that I saw them, and felt their presence. BUT! On the good side, it would mean I died living my dream. Isn't that the best way to die? Not suffering, not from illness, or in a place you didn't want to be, but in a place you always dreamed of, a place that you took risks to get there, a place that you (and maybe other people) always wanted to be, and you got there!! Also, if we put a little christian into this, my family here, and my family in the USA will all be able to meet each other in heaven. Nonna Carmen will let my family try some of her amazing food, dad can let everyone taste what REAL pancakes and other baked goods taste like, Nonno Sergio will get to see God, who he has faitfully been following and reading about for so many years, all will be okay.
5 days till christmas. :) No tree yet. Going to do that Saturday...I hope. Tomorrow school, shopping in Padova with Diletta and Andrea, and the dinner for 3^C. Saturday is school, then lunch at Nonno Sergio's (it's his birthday), and Rugby dinner. Sunday should be free, then Monday is Christmas eve, Tuesday is Christmas, Wednesday is another feast day, Thursday-Saturday are homework days, Sunday-Wenesday (2nd January) we are going to the mountains to ski and have fun, Thursday-Saturday I go to Ancona to meet "Franca" a person I have been hearing about for years but never met. Sunday rest. And monday the 6th back to school. Gosh. This break will go fast!
I promise to post pictures of christmas! Buon Natale!
Ciao!
