This week has been pretty uneventful, but good because it has been full of gelato and pesto. haha. Today, though, moved in two people who are starting at my school tomorrow in Italian sign language. They remind me of myself when I first got here. It is nice having people who speak English to live with and I am sure I can learn a lot from them and signing. For dinner we had an American meal! Well, chicken curry. I thought it was going to be some spicy thai food dish, but it was actually not at all. Just chicken with sliced almonds in a yummy broth. They find it wierd that rosotto is served with the meat, instead of before it. The time here is passing by so fast. I can't believe it. In Italian culture classes we are learning about the 4 elements (well 5) : earth, air, water and fire. Once a week we watch movies relating to them. Last week was fire and this week we started water. It is very interesting! The new students who are coming are taking many classes, not just 2 like we are. I do not know how they are going to do it, because I can't imagine being any more busy than I already am. I find myself being so tired all the time from the heat or walking everywhere, yet I get a lot of sleep still! But it is worth it. I love going to school in the morning and the teachers make it fun to learn. I can't believe how much Italian I have learned in a little over a week!
