Day 7- First Day of Class

So class is in session officially. I started my video class, I have no clue what the hell the professor is talking about. So I really got my work cut out for me. So I have never spent so much time with professors before, its crazy. Luckily he didn't turn into Serious Guy from Mr. Cool Guy. We talk about our first video that we are going to shot, the professor already has it mapped out. So we go at sights, most will be right in our own apartment.

So I have this really great apartment in Lucca. You walk down this long hallway and there are two bedrooms and a bathroom. Then there is a living room and a kitchen. The best part is the balcony!! We are the only ones that have a balcony on the the whole block. I feel so fortunate. So my roommate allowed me to pick my room. I got the smaller room, but I have a a full mirror closet and the full size bed. We even have TV with satellite, there is only one English channel which is BBC, so I say up on my news. Also MTV is pretty good about showing a diverse mix of videos and some English shows. Maybe when I get better in my Italian I'll watch more TV.

So after that I hang out out the cafe, start getting my blog going. I have the best best friend ever, Shani Hilton. She is awesome and brought you this blog!! It's so hard to stay mad at her. So while there I met some more Americans. There is a huge group staying here for five weeks from Cincinnati music school.

So then I go home and three of the girls are over. I'm going to call these girls "the too live crew." My roommate made dinner, it was great, we ate pasta and drank lots of wine. Then we left for the 9pm movie showing in our studio. So every Tuesday and Thursday we have movie night. So we watch these Italian movies with English subtitles, which is such a blessing. There is a cinema right next to the cafe, thinking about seeing Indian Jones in Italian. It might be the only movie that I can understand without the language.

So later I call Steven, I'm talking about my day and my roommate. So I say, "He made dinner, it's great." He so got stuck on "HE." So I so thought I had told him about my rooming situation, but it looks like it was of those conversations I imagined. So since I am a grad assistant, the two grad assistants live together and there was suppose to be another guy but he dropped out. We have the best apartment, might I add. I so don't see it as a big deal. My roommate and I just mix. He's from Cali, so laid back and chill, just like me. We have no problems, he shares, he thoughtful, but so not my type, if you know what I mean. So I'm hoping he understands that the setup is nowhere near Real World. Also my professor lives right across the hall, he's always around, along with half the other students who wanna hang out. So he has nothing to worry about.
