These are the best things that happened to me the year I didn't go to school:

Traveled around Italy with my family's theatre troupe.
Performed in a theatre outside. (I was a monkey, a panda, and a lion!)
Ate spaghetti with fried egg on top.
Slept in a truck.
Wove cowboy boots.
Ciao! (I spoke Italian.)
Kept a journal to remember everything that happened.
