I was thinking last night about how much I've missed posting. Which was followed by me thinking about why that was. I came up with 2 reasons. 1) I'm been extremely busy with school lately. 2) I didn't think I had any to write about.
I realise now that those are both bollocks. Yes, I have been busy with school. But not to the point where I can't even sit down for a few minutes to write. Also, there are definitely things that I can write about. It's time for me to update everyone on my life.
I'm trying to learn Italian. I've borrowed from the Library a book called "Learn Italian The Fast And Fun Way". I've been wanting to learn another language for a few months now. I tried to learn Brazilian Portuguese a few years ago. Reason? I met a boy in Brazil and wanted to be able to communicate with him when I was back home. Learning that totally failed. I also tried to learn German once, but then realised that I did not like how harsh everything sounded. Now I'm set on learning Italian! There is a reason for this one, you'll be pleased to know. I want to move to Italy when I can. Not only is it an absolutely beautiful city, but they are also really advanced in Gluten Free food! They test all children under the age of 10 for Celiac Disease, and they give extra time off to people who have Celiac Disease to compensate for their need to find food. Isn't that amazing?
This weekend I'm (finally) painting my room. I'm going to temporarily be a hermit to get this done. I've been meaning to paint it since June since it's still the ugly green color that my sister painted it. I'm going to paint it a somewhat pale gray. I'm hoping it'll be relaxing.
I'm going to soon open a shop on Etsy called Nathalie Cherie. What do you think of the name? I quite like it. I plan on selling numerous things. From photographs, to clothes, to painted storage things. The photographs will hopefully be for sale by next week.
Clothing is another topic that I haven't mentioned! I still have a lot to learn before I can sell my clothes, but I'm hoping my passion for it will help me learn faster. I have a few things I already have in mind that I want to make, and more ideas just keep coming.
I'm in my third semester at College, but this is the first semester studying something I love. I studied Commerce for two semesters; it was definitely not for me. Now I'm studying Creative Arts, Languages and Literature. I love it. I have to take a Universe of the Arts class, and we discuss History, with a touch of Art. I just can't get enough of it! I also have such classes as Painting and Drawing, and Creative Writing. Isn't that just incredible?
That's all I can think about to share for now. Hopefully I'll be able to keep writing on a more regular basis!
Welcome to November, my loves!

A Vacation in Paradise
I have arrived home from my two week vacation! I had a lovely time, took many pictures, and spent all of my money. I will soon post picture of the things I have bought, I'd love to hear what you think!
I love everything I bought so much. I went a bit out of my realm of comfort, and I ended up buying a lot of floral prints. (My boyfriend will not be happy; he hates floral print!) But I shop for my happiness and comfort, not his.
I love Rome. Everything about Rome is beautiful and memorable. We saw the main tourist attractions, such as the Forum, the Vatican, the Sister Chapel, the Pantheon, the Flavian Amphitheatre (or more commonly known as the Colosseum), as well as numerous other things.
Have you ever heard of the Borghese Gardens? It is a large expanse of land with such beautiful attractions. Within the Villa Borghese is Galleria Borghese and, drum roll please, a zoo!
You will not believe the fantastic gluten free food which they have there! Beautiful, and not to mention delicious. By law, they needed to add something to the dish to show that it was gluten free. Some places placed a flag, other added a dash of sauce on the side of the dish.
Doesn't that look fantastic? My mouth is watering just looking at it.
That's all for now, darlings. More to come soon!
