I wanted to share my new favorite pet with you – my grasshead. 
He’s the cutest ever.. I bought him at the 99cent store and it’s magic. Now I can cut his hair, tie it in bows, give him a mohawk. It’s quite good therapy, and much less stress maintenance then a real pet. I’ve always wanted a Chia pet..
We had a small Spring break from school and I mostly spent it relaxing and becoming addicted to The Amazing Race – amazingly, I had never seen it before. Good thing there are like 18 more seasons to go… I also went to a good friend’s wedding. It was at Villa Viviani – a beautiful villa in the hills of Tuscany above Florence. The view was amazing and I would never get sick of it. It made me appreciate how lucky I am to live here (and how much I want to live in the country and not in the city).
Last weekend for Easter, a friend and I went to Genova for the long weekend. Here the Monday after Easter is Pasquetta (little Easter) and thus a holiday. Genova is a very interesting sea port town with an amazing acquarium, ship museum, old castles and villas, and some beautiful seaside scenery. We also spent a day on the Italian Riviera – we took a beautiful walk from Santa Margerita to Portofino (where all the rich stars spend their vacations). The sea was so blue and clear. It was a nice, relaxing weekend with some beautiful scenery.

After a nice break, I came home to a broken fridge. Something else to add to the list of things I’ve had to live without for at least a week of permanently (washer, dryer, heater, air conditioner, hot water, freezer). I can’t really think of anything else left – I shouldn’t jinx it – but hopefully the fridge will get fixed one of these days soon.

So now the countdown begins…10 more weeks of school!! I need to start checking things off my list of things to see before I leave. It is free museum culture week next week.. Although, I like the idea of leaving some things undone – always a reason to come back..
