Misconceptions, Preconceived Notions and Justified Stereotypes
Long fancy title just to fire off a quick one, Im catching a train tonight, I checked out this morning, I have killed 7 out of a 12 hour stretch until my train and I have come to a few conclusions:
1. I do not have enough warm clothes
2. Switzerland is cold in October
3. I have lost weight, I dont have my protective layer of blubber
4. The Swiss are as orderly and clean and punctual as you think
5. There are swiss army knives for sale everywhere
6. With the exception of draft beer everything is expensive (like the 119dollar pair of jeans I saw today)
7. Some sterotypes are justified
8. You get weird looks after waking up on a park bench (its how I killed 1.5 out of the 7 hours today)
Also, there have been a few of you jumping to conclusions about a previous post…I said that one of the shops main functions was hair cutting, but alas, all my hair remains on the top of my head. The OTHER function of the shop, was body piercing, and there is a barbell in my left nipple right now, and it didnt hurt as much as I thought I would, and I watched the entire process. Other than that, I am catching a sleeper train tonight, sans wine and weed and will be arriving in Florence early tommorrow morning to liberate my pictures…hopefully, then on to Roma for friday to visit the pope, confess to all my sins etc etc (if he has time) and gladiate in the coliseum and so on. After that who knows, and who knows how long I will stay in rome. 4 more hours and 30 minutes to go until train time…

Oh nipple piercing. That’s hot. I stayed at UofT last night (tuesday) and had a blast, I also go to sleep in until 7:45 and had a massive free all you can eat buffet breakfast. Today in MTP I was making calender of important events for the month of October, and I realized that I may get to see you in the near future. I’m not counting the days because I’d rather you have the time of your life and me not wish you were back here. I’ve been listening to some good old Garth Brooks recently and thought of you. Anyways, gotta look at your next post.
Love, Kat
