Orientation!

Orientation has been great so far, we’ve seen so much in these past few days. Today we had our first class in Italian (which meets once a week for the rest of the semester). I feel like it’s pretty similar to Spanish, except with a strange accent. Our professor is awesome; his name is Mario (pronounced exactly like the video game of course). Some of the professors gave us tours around campus and our neighborhood so we knew where things were. The school even treated us all to giant cones of gelato, which were fantastic (three flavors even!).  We got pizza for dinner tonight because the grocery stores close pretty early and we were kinda sick of pasta already.

Tomorrow we just have a meeting/tour at 10 in the morning then we are free for the weekend! There has been talk of heading to the coast to find a beach because it’s so hot here in the city. It’s been over 90 degrees every day and no one has air conditioning. So it will be nice to escape for a little while and read some more of The Godfather.
