thanks a lot, hoteltrain

today i arrived in barcelona. i took the train here from milan after being in florence to see my brothers new apartment. florence was cool. my brothers apartment is very bizarre because it looks like some swinging gay bachelor pad but everything in it is really cheap and just looks like it's expensive. because of this matt and his roommates started calling it the model home from arrested-which is very fitting.
when i was walking out of an internet cafe in florence i saw maddy romano - a friend from highschool- on the street. it was really really weird and exactly what i heard of happening to people when they were abroad. it was even weirder when she told me she was about to meet up with evan witty-another good friend from highschool. then later that night i met up with kyle (bain) at matt's friends apartment. it was just weird but really cool.
i took the hoteltrain from milan last night and got in this morning. matt had told me a lot of good things about the train. because if this i was a little upset when the i entered it into the SMALLEST hallway i have ever seen. i had my huge backpacking backpack, a big duffel and a small duffel. i couldnt turn around int he hallway and i had to do like 3-point turns by going in the a room partially. also there was no place to put our bags so they were just piled int he middle of the room. my two roomates were lus, a 50-60 yr old peruvian woman who spoke spanish and a tiny bit of english and tamara, a 50-60 yr old russian woman who spoke only russian. it was a little awkard at first but lus was really nice. the awkwarness got to a high point at the french border when tamara didnt have a passport and was detained by the french police and taken off the fucking train!! i feel bad for her but honestly, i dont know how she even go into italy without a passport. this morning lus said almost nothing to me which made me think that i probably made my noise and she was bitter. oh well.
barcelona is really really sweet. today we went to this awesome park with palm trees and a big fountain. brett and maybe beckley get here on friday which im pumped for. also i just ran into a girl who i played soccer with when i was younger.
well i am in caseys school using the internet and i feel like im starting to get some looks. peace out.
