First day of class!

Today was our official first day of class. We walked from our apartment to the Camp de Fiori, stopped for fresh apples for breakfast in the open air market and headed to class. Class was just review of things we were unsure of and the rest was us just asking Ruggero questions about Rome. We asked him how to tell the obnoxious boys to go away. "Lasciami in pace" (Leave me in peace) apparently is the polite way to say it. "Sparisci" is the more impolite yet effective "get out of my sight". Then we wandered around the area until it was time for our orientation meeting. Which was boring. The lady in charge could barely get her words out as if she couldn't think of them. Very strange. She told us there is a creepy old man who lives in the same building as the school. Apparently he'll tell girls every day that it's his birthday and that he needs a kiss. I think he sounds like a silly old man. We came back to the apartment and chilled for a few hours (I read my favorite book to relax!)and then went to the market to buy food for snacks, breakfast and dinner. Bought a bottle of Spumante for 1 euro. Then we came back and ate amusingly shaped pasta for dinner (some of the girls had bought penis shaped pasta in the market today). We were making ridiculous jokes for the rest of the night. We found out today we have the nicest class schedule ever! Here it is:
Mondays: Italian 103 (grammar) 11:30-12:30
Tuesdays: Field trip 8:30-12, Italian Culture 2-4, Italian 103 4-5
Wednesdays: Italian 103 11:30-12:30
Thursdays: Field trip 8:30-12, Italian Culture 2-4, Ancient Rome History 4-5
Fridays: Field trip

We also have no daily homework, just a weekly journal entry about our life in Rome and no weekly quizzes! Yay! Totally psyched for the rest of the quarter.  :)
