My new apartment!!!

Alrighty I haven't been able to update for awhile because when I moved into my new apartment and I couldn't get internet but now we got that all fixed! So Thursday morning I had to check out of my hostel, YAY! I liked it there but I was ready to have more space. For those of you that know me well I don't travel light! So I thought I would be smart and take half of my luggage with me and leave the other half at my hostel and walk back to get the rest later. Because I figured my apartment would be relativity close to the apartment. So after about a mile walkish I got to school and got all checked in and got directions to my apartment and realized that my apartment was actually further away then expected! So I had to leave the luggage I brought with me and walk back to the hostel and call a taxi, which doesn't sound bad except taxi's in Italy are ridiculously expensive! So I got back to the Hostel and called a taxi and after about 10 minutes of explaining what I needed to do he finally understood me. So off we go to the school and the school is on a street that you can't drive on, so he stopped on a street near by expect he told me to go to the left and I did and my school wasn't there. So I went back to the taxi and asked him to give me directions again, then he decided to get on some radio thingy and get different directions. But I just wanted different walking directions because I didn't understand where we where. So he takes me to the other side of town and tells me this is where I need to be, and I told him no and of course the asshole starts yelling at me in Italian because he's purposely screwing me over. And I was about to have a mental break down and ball but I kept it together. So then he takes me back and keeps yelling at me to go to the left and I said no and he kept yelling at me so I just said yes and walked off and went to the right and behold my school. So I get my luggage and by the time he gets me to my apartment I had to pay 33 Euro for a taxi, which is about $45 to $50!!!! I was just so happy to get to my apartment and then getting my luggage inside was a struggle because only half the door opens and it is the side of a regular door. THANK GOSH WERE ON THE 1ST FLOOR! So I got my luggage up this really dark stairwell and I have a skeleton key so I spent about another 10 minutes trying to figure out how to open my door! And of course I didn't know there was a light switch so I am doing this in the dark, lol! But I finally got it open and I was shocked about how cute my apartment is!! I was expecting it to be smaller and older. But it's really cute and we have a good sized kitchen, 2 bathrooms and a microwave!!!! I was so excited to finally be here!!! So I unpacked and laid down for a bit and my first new roomy came in Lexi and we chatted a bit. Then we went to the Supermarket to get grocery's, and we were completely unprepared!! I guess I forgot everything would be in Italian! So I got what I think looks like things I would eat at home and I think what is stain remover for my clothes but who knows. And Thursday night I went on my first pub crawl and probably my last, and I actually drank Sangria which I hate! But once again I meet a lot of interesting people and some cool places to hang out.
