I am a lazy blogger. Okay false. I am not a lazy blogger. I am a busy-living-in-Italy-with-no-internet-and-no-cell-phone-who's-completely-disconnected-from-the-rest-of-the-world-blogger. And I'm not even actually a blogger.
So it's going to take some time for me to get used to this.
I promise a huge, well-written with beautiful pictures blog is coming soon. Probably on Monday. So much has been happening and I can't wait to write all about it. Once I have time. Here's the deal: We don't have internet at our apartment, and we have to walk pretty far to the school to get internet...and the school is only open for a few hours during the day, most of which are during the hours that I'm in class. So I'm trying. Our first week of classes was kind of like a fake week. Instead of having our actual classes, we had full days of intensive Italian language classes. Basically we learned the basics to help us get by while we're living here. Then, at the end of the week, we took a placement test to figure out which ACTUAL Italian class we should be in. I'm actually picking up the language pretty quickly, so I signed up for the intensive class, which meets for a couple more hours a week and moves at a quicker pace than the regular beginning Italian class. I'm excited to start real classes on Monday! I'm taking The Roman Empire, Human Development in Culture, Women's Writings in Italy, and and Italian. Classes only go Monday through Thursday, so yesterday (Friday) we went to Assisi! Pictures to come with the next blog post! It was incredible. We saw the Basilica of St. Francis (SO COOL). And we also just walked around a lot and died of heat and got really toned butts from all of the hills.
OKAY MORE ON MONDAY!!
