As the title says, the exam is done! The conversation exam was this morning, the last part of the PLIDA test for international certification in Italian. I think I did well, but I'm just relieved to have it finished! Now I have to wait until October or November to find out how I did on the tests and whether or not I passed. I won't be anticipating it because waiting that long with anticipation would probably kill me! So, I'm going to put it out of my mind. Now I have a few days left here in Florence before I'm off to my island vacation in Malta, which sounds a lot more glamorous than it probably will be.
Tonight is our closing ceremony where we will receive our diplomas and have one last meeting together. Tomorrow is the closing ceremony of the theology students, and I'm going to try to go to that, too. This afternoon I'll spend some time shopping for souvenirs! Anyway, these are my last few days in Italy, and I hope I can enjoy them as I have enjoyed this year!

Ho finito! Ho finito! Ho finito!
Title = I have finished! I've finished! I'm done! :D
Yes, I have just finished my last final exam (how's that for an interesting phrase?) for this school year! Of course I still have the PLIDA test, the international certification exam, which is nothing to sneeze at, but that's not for school! And boy, am I excited about that! Well, about the fact that it's not for school, at least.
Anyway, I'm off to eat lunch since I just had a few minutes here to mess around, but that was enough time to say what I came to say. I'm done!

Malta, here I come!
I've been trying to figure out where to go after the school year ends, well, at least for a few days. I think I already wrote about that, but now I've found my solution! I'm heading to Malta!
In case you don't know, Malta is an island in the Mediterranean, though don't ask me anything beyond that!
Well, just an update, and now I'm off to eat some lunch.

After School Ends
Well, I've got plans for the end of the school year, whether I want to or not! Oh, and I am finally updating after another long period of time with no updates.
Okay, about my most interesting travel plans for the end of this school year. I had thought about going to the northern part of Italy again and seeing some of the towns around Venice such as Padova (Padua), Vicenza and Verona. Sadly, I'm not going to be doing that. Of course, I'm still pretty excited about my plans, but I really did want to see some of these places. Maybe I can just take a few day trips to the cities, though the train tickets are a bit pricey. I'll figure it out, I suppose.
So, after all of that suspense, I will tell you all what I'm doing! I'm going to Malta for ten days! I hope I don't get bored there, which I don't think I will. Uh oh, I just had a bad thought. I'm traveling with Ryanair and can only take a carry-on bag. Which means that I can only take liquids and gels in tiny amounts. Which means that I can't take my sunscreen. I'm going to be in trouble! Let's hope that I can buy some sunscreen there for a lot less than 16 euro! So, those are my plans for the end of this school year! The end for now, I suppose. It's way past my bedtime!
