When I go to a five-story club
The first time:
By the end of the semester:
*thanks sarah
When I learned there is no open container law
When I realized "peperoni" in Italian does not mean "pepperoni"
When I take the overnight train
The creepy guy across from me is all:
And I just sit there like:
When my friend and I ask a cute guy to take a touristy picture of us
When people park in Europe
When I'm told to rub another statue for good luck
When I'm dancing with a French guy
When I took my first grappa shot
When I tried a bidet for the first time
At first I was like:
But then I did it and was like:
*thanks lauren
When I see another person wearing a Hard Rock t-shirt
When I try to make the Royal Guards laugh at Buckingham Palace
I’m like:
But they just stand there all:
So I give up and I’m just like:
When I type up my language homework
When I walk across Abbey Road
Expectation:
Reality:
When I tried my first kebab
When I get out of my three hour conversation class
When I see the Eiffel Tower at night for the first time
When my friends come to visit and it is raining
When the person in front of me at the train station is taking forever at the automated kiosk
When I learn there are national quiet hours
When I buy a fresh loaf of bread at the market every day
My friend is all:
And I’m just like:
When I'm unpacking back at home and find a receipt from my favorite restaurant
What happened to me when I took one too many Absinthe shots
When my friend and I get stuck with the horribly monotone tour guide
We’re just like:
My first night in Ibizia
All night:
The next day:
When I accidentally brush up against a creeper on the metro
He’s just sits there all:
Meanwhile, I’m just like:
How I feel about siesta
When I fly a discount airline and they leave the lights on during my night flight
When I get my food before everyone else
And I know it offends the cook to not eat it right away, so I’m just like:
When I decide to wear heels out at night on the cobblestone
Expectation:
Reality:
When I try to make a call on my shitty prepaid phone
When I drank my first cappuccino
When I set my laptop clock to 12hr rather than 24hr time
When an Italian guy comes up to me at a nightclub
When someone tells me how many days we have left abroad
How all the salespeople look at me when I walk into Harrods
When my friend asks me where we are going to eat Thanksgiving dinner
When the creepy Italian guy is eyeing me when I am hungover at breakfast
He’s all:
And I’m just like:
When I lose my drink card at the club
Whenever I am drunk and meet someone with a British accent
When my friend asks me if the Albanian guy she made out with at the club last night was hot
When I try to blend in
But I actually look like:
When I realize the coins in my pocket are worth more than just cents
When my friends and I see a group of obnoxious American girls
We don’t think we are ever like that so we’re just like:
When the power voltage kills my $100 straightener
When I get to my homestay
I’m just like:
And my host mother is like:
But when I have to leave at the end of the semester I’m all:

After dinner when the limoncello hits me
When I tried sangria in Spain
It was so delicious I had to ask:
When I show up to the club too sober
