Not too many pictures this week. Been stuck behind my computer writing essays and trying to get organized to leave! That's right-- just 7 short days until I am officially in America for good.
Over the past two weeks we've had a "Spettacolo" in Italian class. Directly translated that means "show"-- it's a small little terribly organized barely memorized compilation of bad puppet skits, kiddy songs in Italian and english (that's right--folks, I pay to do the Hokey Pokey!) and other ridiculous dances (IE: everyone's favorite bar mitzvah tune-- Cha-Cha Slide and the age old Tarantella) The great part about the whole thing is after our supposedly "one time only" performance at an elementary school two weeks ago-- we had to do it again! But we're not too dumb to not ask for special conditions. My class would only do the show if a)NYU bought us pizza dinner. and B) there was beer there.
They did not disappoint. It was great. a truly bonding moment between our Italian class.
Not that singing "Nella Vecchia Fattoria" on your knees dressed like a pig doesn't do that already. (Old McDonald)
Anyway, this weekend is LONG. Thursday was Italian Labor day-- so no school. We also don't have most classes on Monday except for a few exams. That's called 5 day weekend, folks!
Thursday night Kelly, Dani, Bhargavi and I got a bottle of wine and climbed over on of the Arno's bridges and drank on the "triangle" over looking the nasty river filled with super-being beavers that devour humans. It was a lovely night.
Here are the few pictures I could muster up::
Me, Dan and Bhar on the "triangle"
Dani, on the tip of the triangle!
Kelly's purchases made her this-- a skirt made only of receipts!
Lily and I on our class trip to the ancient tombs of the etruscans! a few weeks ago.
