I'm glad you survived your "Near-death experience!" Craziness. Perhaps people were honking because that's what stupid guys do when they see girls.
Very poetic about you not needing your iPod.
I told Starbucks today that Nov 4th will be my last day. But they are letting me come back in January!
Hope you had a great weekend!
Lovins and laters,

I did! But my alarm won't work because my phone can't pick up a signal to tell the time. Wierd cause Sam has verizon too and although she can't make calls, her phone receives the signal for the clock. Bummer.

Hey, I thought you brought your cell phone to act as an alarm. Guess what? I have 700 minutes to use these days. What should I do with all of them? I'll think of something...
I already emailed you, Mom, saying that you can just email me to contact me. We're not supposed to upload anything on the internet during the day so I'll have to load them sometime at night after Rome.
Mom
Hi, Danah!
Good to see a couple more messages. Thanks, Brian, for your sweet compliment. Yes, you can come up here for Thanksgiving this year, if you like. Maybe E could pick you up on her way north. Just a thought.
Danah, have you enrolled for more than two classes yet? Do you have any kind of printout/attachment that says so?
Dad would like to see you take the stone cutting class as well. Dave says, he wants you to carve "The Barbara" to go with "The David." We can keep "The Barbara" in the back or front yard. Ship it over.
Have you received the "contact" messages I've sent? Or is the "msg board" the best way to contact you?
Must run to school.
Love, Mom
Elaine
Hey D's!
Sounds adventurous! Are you used to the time change now? Do you have to do a lot of school work and studying, or are they kind of relaxed? You have Fridays and weekends off, right?
So you have internet in your dorm now right? How many roomates are in your room?
Wow, you can drink two glasses of wine and not "feel an effect," as you say? I'm impressed...
Have a good second week! Go you!
Love, E

Yeah I am growing on this blog thing. You know what I saw this show one time called Celebrity Rap Superstar where professional rappers teach celebrities to rap. One guy who was rapping was a celebrity blogger. Didn't know there was such a thing that existed. Its not like her gets paid much unless its so popular he is selling spots for ads. No need to upload photos on Facebook either when you can upload them here for your whole family to see. I love you Danah and I love you Turner family. You are like my second family. Happy travels Danah!
Love,
Brian

Hi, Danah,
Now I see why you want to use a blog rather than just email. It has your pictures and story all together, it's more recent technology (good to be up on things), and you don't have to impose your emails on people who may not want to have it with attachments, etc. The bad part is, I don't see any spell check.
So don't forget, I need to have proof of your full time studentness to show the health insurance before September 29. I'd prefer it as soon as possible.
Dad and I like your pictures. Dad says it has old world charm.
So breakfasts aren't very healthy, huh? Maybe a group of students could get together and as for yogurt and juice. Or eggs and juice on occasion.
Thanks for sending us your travel notes. We love them. And you.
Love, Mom

Hi, Danah,
I cannot see any of your photos. It shows only computer code when I click on the icon in the upper right corner, which I believe you call a thumbnail. I will have to wait until later. It's hard to wait.
I finished my first week of teaching today. I feel good about this year.
Patti and Steve are going to Rome on September 15 for a week and wonder if you might meet them in Rome. I will send you their itineray by normal email so I can just forward it.
What is the advantage to using a blog over your normal email?
Your car registration came; it's due in October. Do you think we can mail it to Brian to put the stickers on your car? Dad's worried that we may be ticketed if a police officer sees it on the street without currecnt registration.
