This morning in class we had presentations on the subject of our paper, which to be completely honest, I basically winged it because we had little to no guidelines at all, so I just hoped for the best. All went well though and I got a 94%.
After we finished presentations, we went to see Palazzo Barberini, which while we didn’t get to see much, it was very pretty! The Barberini family uses bees to represent themselves and so all over their property there are little bees carved into the pillars and it’s kind of adorable. As one of the guys in my class said to me “it’s almost a little Disney-esque”. (He knows how much I like Disney so he knew that would appeal to me.) We left Palazzo Barberini and I headed back to my apartment. I made lunch and worked a bit more on my paper, which is nearly done and now we have one more day to work on it, which is always nice.
After just hanging around a little while after that, I went to the school to print my boarding pass for tomorrow and then came back and worked on my paper a little more. My roommates and I decided to go out to dinner tonight and it was a wonderful decision. We went to a little place about 20 minutes down the street from us that had a cute little rooftop terrace and DELICIOUS food. I had Pinot Grigio, bruschetta and a homemade pasta and it was one of the best meals I’ve had here without a doubt.
When we came back to our apartment, I packed, talked to my mom for a little and showered. Now tomorrow morning I’ll wake up and head to the airport a few hours later because I’m going to Germany!
But, before that happens, I need some sleep, so I’m gonna call it quits
here and report back more tomorrow! Until then–arrivederci!
