Well today is my second day of classes, and they really are not that bad. We are all still getting over the shock of actually taking class in Rome! I have this amazing Scottish priest as a professor, and I love hearing his stories of traveling around the world. He is so nice. My art history professor is actually Greek, and is in every way possible what I envisioned an art teacher to be. The classes are long and challenging, but I believe that I can handle them. I was eating lunch by the trevi fountain today and could not believe everything I was seeing all around me! I have learned that the real way to see this city is to actually get lost, and ask the local businesses where a place is. It is so much more fun to walk down some side streets and see all of the wonderful shops, and to get away form all the tourists. I love looking at all the clothes and shoes in the windows contemplating on what I should buy. Bartering with the street vendors is a lot of fun too. I love seeing how low I can get a watch or pair of sun glasses for!
