Under the weather

Woke up feeling under the weather this morning. I felt myself getting sick yesterday, but I drank vitamin C, tea and aloe drinks in the hope of warding it off with no luck. This timing isn't the greatest, so I'm going to try and take care of myself while studying and taking midterms. Hopefully all goes well!

Buon Natale!

It seems almost overnight that Florence has turned into a winter wonderland. The streets are lined with lights, there is a tree in front of the duomo and men selling roasted chestnuts on every street corner. I thought I was going to miss Christmas time in New York, but Italy is just as good! Tonight is my last night in Florence, and parting with this beautiful city is bittersweet. On the one hand I get to go home to my loved ones, but I really will miss all the magic of Florence. I know I'll be back sooner or later!
