I said goodbye to one of my best best friends in the world, miss Courtney Shill, who is leaving tomorrow for a mission in Madrid, Spain. She informed me that she had been checking my blog every day looking for new posts, which were rarely there. This has therefore guilt tripped me into writing a post today.
Also I'd like to make a #S/O to Alison Patch, because she requested it (although I don't think my blog is the smartest place to reach out to the interwebs)
So. Back to Italy.
I have taken cooking classes while here. My roommate and I have a very spacious apartment so we often have a bunch of kids over for dinner, and we are dang good cooks at this point (Well Lauren was already a good cook). I make some mean homemade pasta and tiramisu.
My Italian is excellent. I have never felt more confident in wanting to study Linguistics and just go live in the world and learn lots of languages, because I love it so much that it's not even difficult, it just happens. Voglio imparare TUTTE LE LINGUE NEL MONDO!
It's incredibly beautiful here. We went to the beach again this weekend on Saturday and Sunday, and even though it rained on Sunday it was still so much fun. I have mastered public transit, and actually thoroughly enjoy it at this point. Siena is really quite a small city, but since I walk everywhere it doesn't feel small at all. I feel like even if I had a bike the city would shrink considerably, but I like walking and it has let me get to know the city much better than I otherwise might have.
That's me and my tiramisu, that I made.
I'll post more pictures in a little while.
Ciao ciao
