uno cappicino
this place was just so cute out on the edge of lago nemi. i'll have to go back when i really want to study, it was perfectociao tutti!!! life is really busy here lately, i'm trying to keep up, but i might be slacking a bit on this blog, so dispiace.
friday, after classes, i walked around a country. i'm serious, all in one day, actually in less than an hour. ok, it was vatican city, but still, it sounds impressive. to think of it though, the back side of the vatican isn't too wonderful, but that is another story. so my roommates and i spent friday night in rome, and just stayed out to experience rome at night for the first time. well saturday morning rolls around and we slept in, of course, the first time in a week😉. in the afternoon the professors took us on a fieldtrip around castelli romani (roman castles). we saw several historically significant sights, one of which was a church from the split of the east and west, and i'm offically a wedding crasher. we were looking inside the church when a bride showed up and who didn't look to enthused about all of the americans at her wedding.
that night we went to a winery (i'll put pics up later). it has been around since the late
actor!!! bravo!
he was SO awsome. it didn't really matter that i couldn't understand what he was saying, but for the first time i felt just a bit italiana. 1200s. so we had a meal and learned how to drink and pick out wine. it was all really very cool. but last night was also la notta bianca, which i've been waiting for for months. basicaly all the museums are open and things like that, although getting through the lines is really not worth it, so i'll just pay 7 euro to get in later. at least it isn't as expensive as it was back in india, and that was only because i am white. although not to white these days, but nothing compared to the italians. anyways that is a bit off track. really the whole entire night was just amazing, ending with us at san pietro at 6 in the morning. i think i haven't crashed yet cause of jetlag, wow useful for a change.

Jet-Lag?
I don't think that really exists, I've been here in Korea for how long now? And I never got anything that I would describe as that. I was tired the first day, but come on, I can't sleep on planes, makes me uncomfortable for some reason. So, if you do get Jet-Lag, let me know what it's like, it would be another contribution to science, probably.
