Reading Notes (Italian Part 2)

The second day of lessons was very similar to the first. I don't have too many notes for this second day, as they would probably be almost identical to yesterday. I don't necessarily plan on making any of these stories into a longer version either, but did appreciate being able to read these tales and relate them to other stores I've read this semester or even prior.

1. My favorite is probably The Three Goslings.

Maybe I can try and add more details to grab the attention of the reader. 3. Just like my story, there are brief instances ...

I thought it was about time that I got around to properly introducing myself. My name is Lauryn but most of my friends and family only refer to me as Laur. I am 21 years old and a junior in college (woohoo!). My hobbies include working out, playing with my puppy, singing, playing the piano and guitar, and playing soccer. For me, where I am is a huge testament to how far I’ve come. Life hasn’t always been so easy and I have not always known whether I would make it this far. I was a very healthy child. An extremely athletic competitive soccer player who was on the brink of breaking into the Olympic scene. No really…It was 2012 and I had just received my second invite to join the Junior Olympics Women’s Soccer League where I would have to move across the globe to Australia with my trainers and coach and begin a life away from everything I’d ever known. The first time I had politely declined, much to the chagrin of my parents and coaches. But now, I was 14 years old and already had ...
