_goodnight torino_

I'm really tired today. To the point that I had an espresso at 10:45 at night.... with extra dark chocolate. BUT today was good. Despite computer frustrations among other things. But two blessings of today were 1) the fact that I have amazing Italian partners and we all get along very well. 2) I had Bible study, which is always refreshing, and perfectly positioned in the middle of my week 3) I have someone to do an English-Italian exchange with. (OK, I know that's three different things, but more is always better!) I'm really excited about that last one. I've been kind of disappointed in myself that I haven't been able to really use my Italian lately. In class, we always speak English because it is much more efficient. And after class we go home...and are around Americans all night...so more English. And I would really like to get better at Italian. It was one of my main goals for the trip.

Also, two other things that have picked me up today (two videos, actually)
1. Janelle Monae // Tightrope Re-mix

2. The Maccabees // Toothpaste Kisses

I'm a fan of both. Very much so. I shall write more tomorrow, maybe when I have more than half a brain :)

Buona notte,
~Angie
