The last couple of days haven't been the most exciting because I've felt somewhat ill and only wanted to sleep, but I thought I'd give a short summary nonetheless!
After being in the Superior Italian language class for 2 days, I switched into the medio avanzato class; those kids spoke way too well, and unfortunately, I'm definitely not on that level yet. I feel so much more comfortable in this class, which is still advanced, but now I don't feel confused at everything! I also had my Italian Literature class which will focus on Dante, Petrarch, Boccaccio, and a few contemporary Italian writers. This class is taught in Italian, but the professor speaks slowly (specifically for us international students) and is pretty easy to understand. I had my final class on Thursday afternoon- Renaissance Lit: Humanism, which is taught by none other than Dennis Looney, a professor at Pitt. He is such a great professor and I am so excited to take his class!
On Wednesday, I went out karaokeing with Tylar and 2 of her homestay friends (she has 7 other international students living in her homestay!). We went to a fun place called Shot Cafe where we all took a "Boob" shot and also had an "Orgasm..." definitely some questionable shot names!! We went to the karaeoke bar where Tylar and I did a very poorly sung version of Lady Gaga's Bad Romance and we rocked out to Bohemian Rhapsody, of course. It was a pretty fun evening full of ridiculous dancing and awful singing!
Also, on Thursday night I had gelato from a place called Vivoli... LET ME DIE, IT WAS SO GOOD. They had delicious flavors like pineapple, pear, etc etc, but I ended up buying some amaretto and pistachio gelato. Next time I go, I'll definitely be trying their fruit flavors. MMMMM, dead. I will probably go back there about a billion times!
Now it's Friday night and I'm ready to have some fun! Hopefully I'll have more pictures and stuff soon. Ciao ciao, y'all!
