Hello my happy readers!

Well, the semester is coming to a close, sadly, and I have less than a week left here in Rome.  This past week I spent cramming for finals, eating way too much junk food, and becoming one with the night owls.  Oh joy.  But now I'm done, the grades are in, and I'm ready to enjoy my last week here.

The next three days are to be spent digging in the dirt and drawing walls for my archaeology practicum.  While it won't be an actual archaeological dig, due to the earthquake that Italy a month ago, it should still be a great experience.  Then, Thursday night we have one final celebratory dinner with the whole gang together for the last time.  After that, it's two days of final Rome explorations and last minute site-seeing before heading home on Sunday.

All in all, the past semester here in Rome has been quite a roller-coaster ride.  There have been ups and downs but overall it was a once-in-a-lifetime experience.  I will dearly miss Rome and will treasure all the memories of my time here.
