Monday, First Day of class.

Today we started our first day of class. This week (Mon-Fri, and next Mon) is evangelism class. So far it is really interesting, Sam Spatola (founder of SBI) is the professor, and I love the way he teaches. I am not sure how many times I will be able to update this week because we have a lot of papers due. A two page, four page, eight page, and another paper due all this week! Our final is next Monday. I really like how it is set up though because we can really focus on this one subject.
We also have Italian 101, and today we learned the alphabet and some pronunciation.

Right now it's the Reposo, which means rest. Where we are at in Italy, everyone participates in this. From the hours of 1-3:30 pm, everyone goes home to rest! No stores are open! Restaurants are though. Usually people will take naps, but I won't until my internal clock gets used to this time zone. Even though I am not tired during the day, I don't want to take a nap so that I can sleep at night. Our classes resume at 3:30.

Ok, pictures anyone?

The View from my bedroom. That is the classroom and dining hall building.

Macchiato and Croissant!

There are a few pics for you, I will upload more later when I have time too!

Ciao,

  1. That's so interesting about the Reposo. It sounds like such a different and wonderful culture there.

    That *is* a lot of papers due! Good luck!

    Hope you’re having an amazing time!
