5th day!

It was the third day of Italian intensive but I already feel a lot better about speaking Italian. It's become a lot easier to talk to Fulvia and we can have conversation during dinner. 20% more than usual hahahaha. I'm about to go get a 15 euro price fix dinner with the rest of the school group so it BETTER BE WORTH MY MONEY.

For the next three weeks we have Italian from 9am until 12 for lunch and then a lab again after lunch. For lab today we did this kind of "scavenger hunt" Some of the classes have involved asking random italians questions about vocabulary and where things are. by the end we will all be GO GETTERS. Surprisingly it's really fun, not at all like college language classes, and we play a lot of vocab games.

Every Wednesday, there is a market in Siena that is outside the Fortezza and near Piazza Gramsci, which is the bus stop that I get off at from Fulvia's place. It is huge and wonderful. They have such a crazy assortment of objects from gloves to buttons, hammers to leather boots. And the prices are really low also. If you visit we will go. I got two scarves and a pin for 10 euro (eh-ooo-row).

EEEH OOOO ROWWWWWW
