During the day, I spent the day preparing the presentation. I did not have lunch, so I got really hangery. At night, we went to a local community for a meeting arranged by Eleonora. At first, we had no idea what was going on but saw lots of strangers in a short amount of time. We shaked hands and smiled. I put the "Italian performance" on, but I had no idea what we were doing. I sat in a room listening to their philosophy of philanthropy. I always hated those kind of activities in my life, so I was not very nice to show my patience. They talked about what they did and wondered what we had done. Then they took us to their organization camp where we had some conversation with the Italian ragazzi. They tried to use their English while we were trying to use our Italian that was funny. Also, I found they were much more easygoing people than I though they would be. It was funny that one Italian guy had a crush on Kaylee, and one Italian young girl had a crush on Riccardo. They wanted to take every picture with every single mind, and they wanted to friend us on Facebook. We all thought it would be much nicer to meet earlier with them. We had many mixed pizza for dinner, also we had cannoli and fruit cup. We sat on a very long table, pizza and calico and music. Those things reminded me that "we are in Italy"
