Not to self: When your great aunt and uncle, native Italian Speakers and Known World Travelers offer to show you Italy your senior summer...say Yes.

don't worry. There will be plenty of time to drink and those people you think you'll be friends forever with...you won't even know where they live in 5 years. Also, Theresa isn't going to sleep with you so don't waste the summer chasing her.

But going to Italy with experienced relatives would have been an experience of a lifetime.

  - I can understand that. I had never been outside of California until i'd joined the Army. - Stephen Apr 20, 12:06 1
    - I was already used to it...being an Army brat I went to 8 different schools up to 12th grade and lived in Europe. -- nm - CrankYanker Apr 20, 12:09
oh yeah, and trying to explain 'missed opportunities' to your own kids is also a waste of time. - CrankYanker Apr 20, 11:52 1
