It has been raining so much for the past couple of days. Actually it has been flooding everywhere it is raining so much. Apparently, this is really strange for this time of year. Everyone seems to hate the weather, but I coming from the desert, love it! At least I love it most of the time...
I had plans to meet up with Nicole for lunch. I decided I would go into the city early to drink coffee and read at my new favorite place, Chocolat. It was raining SO much, but I decieded I would go out anyway. I had to take a bus and a metro to get to Chocolate. The first problem I had was that I got on the bus going the wrong direction. I didn’t even think of this! So I ended up in the middle of now where, but I got back to where I needed to be…eventually. Once on the metro I got to my stop fine. I had to pee (I really need to stop drinking so much coffee) but the bathroom in the metro was charging a euro. I, being the extremely stubborn person that I am, decided paying a euro to pee in a dirty metro bathroom was ridiculous! I knew I was close to Chocolat so I decided to wait. I really should realize how truly, truly horrible I am with directions. I am pretty sure that that part of my brain never formed and never will. Of course I got lost. I was wandering around the city in the pouring rain having no idea where to go. It was raining so much that my umbrella was almost blown out of hands 5 times, and I couldn’t look up to see the street signs because rain was falling in my eyes everytime I tried to glance up. Plus, the streets change ever time there is the smallest curve in the road. You can walk 20 feet and be on four different streets without evening realizing it! I was getting SO frustrated because I didn’t understand how I could have gotten so lost, I really had to pee AND I was mad at myself for not paying the damn euro to use the dirty metro bathroom. When I finally found it, I felt like I had conquered the world!
Later I met up with Nicole for lunch and went shoping. Makeup and pretty underwear! Things I could probably never have to buy again for the rest of my life I have so much…but oh well! I found the best makeup store ever! It is basically the Milan version of Mac but so much better AND it is really, really cheap! I love being a girl!
