Today I went down to the river, only about a 5 minute walk, to check out the dam where I always see people sunbathing. I laid out there on the river for about 2 hours by myself, listening to The National's new album "High Violet" on my ipod, staring at the beautiful blue sky. It was nice to get away from everyone and do my own thing for once; I don't get that opportunity too often since all of my roommates and I have the same schedule for school. It was really a perfect afternoon, one of those moments where everything comes together all at once; the perfect weather, beautiful music, nice scenery, and the fact that I may never be able to experience it all like this ever again. I wished I could have captured it all in a picture to share with people, but some things just don't fit into a picture frame. Luckily, though, I'll forever remember this day every time I listen to "High Violet".
In other news, I had to learn how to iron last night, spent 10 minutes ironing one shirt, then put it on to wear out and found that I didn't get any of the wrinkles out. I don't know how Gram does it.
Ciao ragazzi!
