Last night a few of us went out to dinner. We went to this little Osteria a few blocks from our apartment. There wasn't a menu, the waitress just asked us if we wanted to have the pizza or the pasta. We all got pizza and bruschette miste. The Rome - Inter match was on. There were two other men eating dinner and watching the match on. The owner and the waitress were also watching and we could see the cook watching through the kitchen window. I want to start following calcio more, at least while I am here.

Today I slept really late. I have a cough now and need to figure out where to buy some Tussin. Our first Italian class was this afternoon. 3:30-6:00. I do not know how to focus or sit still for that long anymore. It has been way too long since I have had any classes. The other kids in the class are nice though. Kim, Jake, and Will are all in it too so it's nice to have some friends already. After class we all walked to the Anglo-American bookstore near Via del Corso to buy our textbook because we already have homework!! I'm going to do it in the morning though since we don't have class until 3:30. I want to try to use one of these mornings to go to the Vatican and take advantage of February not being that touristy.

Tonight Kim and I tried to make carbonara. It was actually pretty good. The eggs got a little scrabbley but it all tasted pretty good. Sonia ate some and didn't spit it out so it at least passed the Italian taste test.
