Saluto da Italia!

It’s 9:05pm here, and I’m already extremely exhausted from the first two days in Italia. I’m going to keep this post very short this time.

My thoughts…?

 WOW. I’m still enthralled by the Italia’s exquisiteness, and I’m still pinching myself to see whether this is just a wonderful dream. BUT, fortunately, it’s not! J I’m also feeling very overwhelmed with Italian. I’m trying so hard to remember all what I’ve learned so far- it’s quite difficult! I have to remind myself that it’s utterly impossible to learn all in a few days. Last night, I was chatting with my friend’s roommate, well… should I say attempted to chat with him in LIS… I caught myself signing Libras, Língua Brasileira de Sinais (Brazilian Sign Language).  Boy, it’ll be a long semester for me to learn Italian and LIS (Lingua dei Segni Italiana), but I’m very enthusiastic!

I’ve only had a few hours to get some quick glimpses of my new town, Siena. It’s gorgeous. My god, I can’t stop praising about Siena, Rome and Italia in general! They’re sososo much more beautiful than photographs, and movies!

Here’s some photos from last night in Rome- My friend, Vincent was kind to take me to the Colosseum, the Column of Marcus Aurelius and few buildings in that area. The entire time, I was thinking about how it would be amazing if Dr. Glass could take her art history class to this city... actually the entire country on a field trip. Only if she had the magic school bus... and crazy shoes to match her crazy outfit.

Dr. Glass, if you ever plan to do that sometime in the future... oh please, let me be your TA for the class! ;)

Im so tired. I’m going to bed.

Buona notte!
