A Roman Update

In the past few weeks I really havnt left Rome due to a lack of desire to move and also the need to catch up on some homework. I have been wandering around the city, which has been warm the past few days, and catching up on drawing in my sketch book (which is required for a class. I have to do about two and a half hours of sketching every week). Today Anne and I went to Bernini’s angels on the bridge leading up to the Vatican and it was amazing. Though the angels were beautiful, it was painful to spend two hours drawing all ten of them. Afterwards we wandered back to our apartment, made sandwiches, and walked over to Café Good for cappuccinos and Internet access. Anne has since then gone to class and left me with Joe and Tim to do homework and blog.

I would be going away this next weekend, but I have midterms next week and I don’t want to do poorly on those. I may go to Napoli (Naples) for a day, but that would be the most adventurous I would get. I think for that trip Joe and I will go together, as I think Anne is out of town. For now I sit and study Italian in hopes that I will remember the irregular conjugations of –ire verbs. Ciao for now!
