This blog is brought to you by the letter C...

No, really.

Yesterday was my first real day of classes. For those of you saying, "Hey! You said your first day was 2 days ago!" I lied. Well, kind of. I did have a class on Wednesday morning, but I didn't go. Because the Italians are apparently paranoid that we are just going to stay here forever and ever, I had to do yet more paperwork, which involved going to l'ufficio postale, which sounds cool until you realize it's the post office.

I had my first day of Italian and then the Immigrant Experience class. Both of my professors seem very nice, the IE one might be a bit crazy, but in a fun way, and the Italian one is very sweet, knowing that when she was talking in rapid Italian, we all had a glazed-over looks on our faces. Then we learned our alphabet and spent a good 15-20 minutes talking about the letter "C" and the many different ways it can be paired up with vowels.

After class, I went to UPIM , which is the Italian equivalent of Target, but so much nicer, with a girl I met in Assisi. It's probably a mile away, going downhill on the way there and up on the way back so when you have a bunch of groceries, you'll get a workout. I stopped at a supermarket and bought some biscotti and wine. The wine came to a grand total of 2,10 euro, so you know it must be good stuff.

Then came dinner, and a chill night hanging out in Reinaldos.

I'm off to the Vatican, but I'm sure I'll regale you with stories from this trip later!
