"Buongiorno! Come sta?"

liroa15 I got your package, thank you *so* much! *huge hugs* I was in a bad mood and it completely cheered me up. And it's all so pretty!! ^___________^ *sends e-chocolate until she has time to go present shopping* I especially love the coaster, it's beautiful.

Eeeee!! *is happy*

Am off tomorrow. Mwahaha! Olympic Freestyle Dressage! *falls off chair in ecstatic glee* In addition to that am planning on dying my hair later, so expect a Before and After pictures post tonight or tomorrow. And although boss wants me to work all day Tuesday, am plotting - or actually planning to beg - rainy_roz to do it instead, since I'm verging on despising the place by now. I want a restful week next week since that was supposed to be this week and it just... isn't. Parents have suggested finishing work a week early though and having a last minute 'city break' to Barcelona or somewhere. Which is growing on me very quickly; I hate packing but it'd be fantastic to have a final few days away before I leave and very-last-minute trips are cheap. So... many plans. :-D

Italian learning is going okay, as demonstrated by subject line. I'm having the most trouble with rolling my 'R's' properly; I've been wandering round work all afternoon sounding like I'm growling at people. I'm hopeful of actually *getting* somewhere with it though, since nothing about it has been hugely difficult or scary so far.

Must be off to wash hair and stuff... day off tomorrow!! *glee*
