Life here is wonderful, but busy! Thankfully my afternoon has freed up so I have a bit of time to update my blog. I would like to invite you all to check out my exciting photos on Facebook:
It is much quicker, and easier, for me to post photos there.
So far we have only had Italian class in the morning from 9-11:30 at the IES Center. We have it Monday - Friday! My teacher is wonderful! She is very clear and has us speaking as often as possible. Today my house mates and I had a meeting with our CA to discuss cleaning schedules, community purchases, and to learn how to make an amazing tuna pasta sauce! OM NOM NOM! Later this afternoon there is a Folk Dance seminar that one of the CAs is putting on. I think I may go try it out....
Ok, one of the biggest things that I will have to get used to are the strikes! We all received an email from IES telling us that today from 6pm on the metro will not be running because the transportation people are on strike! The trains have been on strike since 9am, and will be until 5pm. It's so strange! The last strike I can remember made national news in the US! Here it's an inconvenience, but quite common.
Thursday I have an audition for the IES Music Ensemble, and on Monday I audition for my voice teacher. One of my house mates has been sick so I've been pounding tinctures and cold snaps. No getting sick for this soprano!!
I have taken photos of my apartment:
