Wine and Cheese

Today was fun. Jenny and I got to sleep in, right in time to get ready and go to lunch (at noon). Then we went to Upim (an Italian version of Target) and after Sohaib and I went to an electronics store to get a sim card for my cell phone. So now I have a phone, finally! Calling people costs 19 cents but incoming calls are free!!
Then I had Italian class (which I love cause I really want to learn Italian and my teacher is pretty cool), and after we heard a speech from the dean of the university, then dinner and a wine and cheese party. Dinner was, for once, really good and dessert was an amazing chocolate cake!! It was a really fun time, with Jenny asking the dean (Todd Waller, who sat with us at dinner) about the Italian mob and other random things about Rome. The wine and cheese party was fun-it was an Italian speaking party so we met a lot of Italians which was great. Hopefully we'll keep hanging out with them outside of JFRC cause that would be awesome and it's a great way to learn more Italian! I was so impressed with how much English they knew, I wish I could speak Italian as well as they speak English. At least I'm fluent in English and Polish and I'm pretty good at Spanish so at least I know a few languages. Can't wait till I learn more Italian though!
