"Can we like walk on the grass?"

Ahhhhhhhhhh! Okay sorry, i'm hyper. My family sent me some candy.... and lets just say, I ate a little too much already :) I really miss American candy.... Here the candy is not as good. :(
  This is my candy stash.... It's really sad that I hide this in my closet.... but hey, I'm American. It's socially acceptable to have a candy addiction in America :)

Other than candy, I eat a gazillion pounds of gelato a week. I don't have a picture but I will post one soon. It literally is the most delicious thing EVER created. I usually go with the other exchange students, who I happen to LOVE! I know I talk about them alot, but if you met them... you woould understand. We walk around town laughing at everything, like the annoying Americans we are, and I LOVE it sooooo much! Here are some pictures of the coolest people in Italy ;)
 This is Tessa, who is the most amazing singer I know, like no joke. She sang at a concert at church club and I was blown away. She is a very unique person and I have grown to love her. It's amazing the different people you meet from all over. And the guy is DeWayne. He is easily the ditziest (spelled wrong) guy I know, but in a completely good way. He kills me. I laugh so hard at the things he says. One day we are making a video of all the things he says... then you will understand.
 Gosh, I love this picture SO much! It seriously is this beautiful.... Not edited.... No joke. It still takes my breath away. But anyways, these three girls are also equally amazing. Abbey, on the left, does'nt live in Cremona, but the one day we got to hang out showed me how awesome of a person she is. She seriously is so easy going and totally up for anything and I love that about her. She is super pretty too. Sorry if that was creepy ;) lol. The girl on my right is Kayleigh. She is the one I spend most of my time with and is easily the funniest girl I have met yet. She never stops cracking jokes and I die everytime I am with her. She is the person i go to when i am homesick because she can literally make me laugh histerically, no matter the situation. The girl on the far right is Regan. I love Regan. She is my age and super easy to get along with. She understands me so well and I love that about her. We are superrrr weird together and it is awesome. I can already tell we are gonna be superrrr close.
 This picture describes our relationship.... and now you can see their faces :) Far left, Regan, Middle, Kayleigh, Right Abbey :) LOVE THEM!

And now for a few funny pictures.... To show you how Americans act in Italy... :)
 Self- Explanitory I think... :) Yes we do this often...to many statues....
 When DeWayne saw the moon for the first time since being here... And it was only like 6pm.... But yes, he was really this excited.... LOL.

I don't really have anymore funny pictures at the moment, maybe because I am too lazy to search... :) Oh well. You will get more later I am sure :) I really don't have much else to say except I love it so much here, and I thank God every single day for this incredible opportunity.... I could really not be more lucky. Thanl you for reading and come back soon :) Love you all and miss you always! <3
With love and the best wishes, Kari, your Italian amica <3

  4. Kari-

    So glad you're having this experience! Being an exchange student utterly changes your life and it looks like you are going to have an amazing time! Make certain to take advantage of every opportunity for travel and different experiences that you can! Italy is amazing---so is the rest of Europe! (Of course, I may be a bit biased!)Get out and see it if possible! I'm so jealous. We started the Reformation today and have been finishing the Renaissance so I've been pining for Italy...and Gelato! Hope your Italian is doing well!
