Past Weekend, and Upcoming Plans.

The Sunsets are gorgeous.
My Backyard consists of vineyards and Alps... :]
Hey Everyone,
This past weekend, we were supposed to go to Treviso, but it was rainy, and I skipped out and watched movies all day. Ministry week was very tiring, but so rewarding. To get the good things in life you have to work hard for them. Sunday we did go to Trieste to watch a Sail Boat Race.
One thing I learned about sail boat races... it's more like 'snail' boat races! You could barely tell they were moving. We had fun nonetheless!

This week we began our philosophy class! I LOVE IT SO MUCH!! I have always been intrigued with this subject, and if I were better at math and science, I think it would be a wonderful degree to get! Thinking is such a beautiful thing; the men that we are learning about were so brilliant! Plato ALMOST had it too! I feel like I know these men of old personally now, as silly as that seems. I just love learning about the history of ideas and how it is shaping today's world.

It just began to get cold here, we don't turn the radiators on until November though. Which is kind of good, that gives me time to figure out where to put all of my things (I kind of use it as a bookshelf...)! It is much colder weather than this southern girl is used to, but it's growing on me. We have Thursday's class, and the Final Friday. Saturday I leave SUPER early to catch a train to the airport, where I fly to Germany for Fall Break! I am so excited! I get to see friends I haven't seen in years!

Well I really should get to sleep, it's pretty late, or early if you will, and I have a quiz tomorrow!

Ciao!
