Hot in Herre

I realized I haven't updated you all since Milan, I'm sure some of you thought I got Taken but don't worry- sono vivo!

    One word to describe this week?  HOT.  Every day was at least 90 degrees with a "RealFeel" of over 100.  No matter how much water I slammed, I constantly felt dehydrated and sick.  I'm starting to feel a little better (especially with the treasure trove of powerade and electrolytes I found), but it's definitely hard dealing with the heat.

     Last night we went to a Cinema Divino event.  It was a screening of Boyhood (dubbed in Italian, English subtitles) at a vineyard!  We got to sample three wines and eat some food as well.  The event was run by some of the people that I'm doing my internship with, so it was neat to see all the hard work they do come together.  I also really liked Boyhood!  As someone who was born in 1994 like the main character, a lot of the segments were so familiar, like the Harry Potter book release party and the gameboys and whatnot.  Also I was so excited that I didn't need to read the subtitles that much, and when I did it was funny to see the difference in what the Italian dubbing was conveying as opposed to the subtitles.

    Today I'm going to a nearby beach town with Shannon and Jane, tomorrow is LION KING(!!!!!!), and the Sunday there is a beer festival that has my name written all over it.  Keeping busy keeps me from remembering that I only have two weeks in Italy left....

A dopo!!!
