Not without a hitch
I was delighted to get my passport in the mail with a big ole visa sticker inside. And in about one week's time too. I'm still overwhelmed with what I have left to do. I sent my form for side trips in, due tomorrow, on Saturday so it should have been there by now. I still need to apply for an international driving permit. Actually, I don't NEED to but I want to, hopefully it won't be a waste of time and money and I'll be able to drive/ride in Italy sometime.
However
Not done yet folks.

New year, old habits
Yeah, I'm slacking a bit on posting about my shtuff. Mostly I've been shoveling snow and driving in the snow while at home on break. I'm still preparing for my semester in Italy as well, visa has been applied for, more paper work has been sent in to LdM, and $422 have been converted to €300 (at a rate of of 1.4763000, uhhh). I realized that I'm face with some decisions many don't have the opportunity to have. LdM has some field trips arranged for $300 each and I can only afford two or three and I have to choose, Venice during carnival, Italian/Swiss Alps, Rome, Tuscany, SW cost of Italy, French Riviera. I mean, come on. Look at that list! By the way, I've chosen Venice, Alps and Pompeii.
