DAY 588: a card, a badge and the future

I miss Ben I really miss Ben a lot.

This morning I woke up with a lovely call from him, he called me because he received my Valentine's card. I was scared about the eventuality that he wouldn't have liked it, considering that as a "child card"... but Ben loved it! I'm so happy!

There were 3 pages in the card:

Today I started my master course at RAI (the Italian National broadcaster) I'm very happy about it because it will be an incredible full immersion in the world of new technologies, graphic and web design! 

But In this way I won't be able to chat with Ben in the morning :-( ... the only occasion will be on Sunday. Luckily when the time difference with Australia will be 8 Hours (around the end of March) we might be able to chat during my lunch break!

Today I acted as Ben because I need a badge to get in the RAI building (as Ben in Channel 7 building!), that's funny, how many coincidences!!! :-)

I'm happy but very scared as well, happy for what I'm going to study, sad because I miss him.

I'm also searching for a room in Florence, and it's hard to find one... I wish I could still stay with Ben and have our room and our life together... yes, sometimes we had problem... but I probably loved the problems as well ahah. 

I really wish one day it will happen what I wrote in the last page of the card.

DAY 221: Valentine's day

Last year I celebrated Valentine's day for the first time in my life! It was the first time for Ben as well (I'm pretty sure, and in any case there's no reason to be jealous of that :-).

I got up in the morning finding a bright yellow sunflowers bunch... but there was more, Ben bought me a little teddy bear and a big bar of toblerone as well.

Ben doesn't like to be too sweet instead of me, but when he acts in this way he is the best! He also bought me a card where there was a wheel to spin and see what was my reward for the day!

As present I did a little "book" to study italian, with all the typical italian colours on the cover and Ben's name on an Italian soccer jersey on the back.

The rest of the day was beautiful, we went to St. Kilda for a Festival and then we had dinner at Rococò, a very nice and yummy place.

I have lots of pictures which belongs to that day, photos taken in the bed with flowers and teddy bears!

This morning (February 2011) I'm looking for the card and the teddy Bear, to take them to Florence (Where I'm going to study for the next months)... however it seems as if they disappeared! What have you done mum?! ahah
