Day 16- Umm...Pressa

So I wake up early...I'm on a mission to find a flat iron. I go the Internet cafe, ask the lady that works there where to find a flat iron. She tells me to go outside the wall and to a store called Euronics and ask for a "pressa." If I bought one inside the wall of Lucca, it would cost more.

So I remember seeing the store on the way to the Supermarket. I go inside and its like Best Buy. They sale all electronic devices. I locate the hair dryers and find the flat iron on the other aisle over. They are really expensive, I buy the cheapest one which was 30 euro. They had some that where up to 80 euro. I hope it works and if not i can return it. They girl at the register did not speak English.

I get back tot he apartment and turn it on. It only has one switch, on or off. To my surprise it worked and worked well. It got most of my roots straight, new growth is starting to come in!!

Also for my video class we started filming our group video. the professor wrote out the movie. Our Italian friend Francesco, got a few of his friends to be in the movie also. So its about a guy who likes this waitress, but she has a boyfriend. He stalks her and get ready to kill her or him, but gets hits by a girl on a bike. Now he's unconscious and falls in love with her.

So the girl that is playing the waitress and the boyfriend are really a couple. So it's funny at the end that she has to get mad at her boyfriend and slap him. So we are filming the scene over and over because they can't be serious and stop laughing. So finally we decide to change the scene and have her jut throw water on him. It actually worked, he was so surprised and had a natural reaction. So I can't wait to see the film later in the studio.

So we rush back to our apartment, to do movie night. We where filming from 3:30 to almost 8pm. So one of the girls in the "too live crew" birthday is on Friday. So they are planning a surprise her at midnight with a cake and champagne. So at midnight we have cake, that has liquor in it. It tasted really weird, but good. The apartment is a hot mess, we have dishes and bottles everywhere. I start to clean up because we will be gone all day tomorrow. I went to go use the Internet and come back. The party went on and I closed my door and went to sleep!

Sidebar....my roommate and the bday girl are kind of hooking up which was why it turned into a huge deal!!! Hope it doesn't turn into Real World Lucca.
