It is Friday. I don’t think I’ve breathed twice since Monday at 9:00am. Today, we spent an hour learning to speak Bengali (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bengali_language) just to see what it feels like to learn a language from scratch. It wasn’t easy.
I will do my very best to update you this weekend, but you haven’t missed much, and there is a TON of work to do this weekend. And, it is going to be sunny and warm. I hope the beach has wireless internet (it doesn’t.) because I owe many of you emails.
Anyway the update is more a status update. I am alive. And well! I am also getting my ass kicked. Seriously. This is hard. Really hard. And I even like learning. But I’m loving it. I’m in Italy, I’m being challenged, and I’m learning a lot (as much about myself as about English grammar). Tonight marks halfway through the course, though there is quite a bit to be done in the next two weeks. Not including, oh, finding a job…
But I’m happy. Really happy. And, I’m in Italy. :)
Fingers crossed when I sleep tonight my brain doesn’t leak out of my ears.
More soon!
