4 Thursday, February- 1st day of Classes

From 2-5 I have Italian Art History with Giusseppe Bombrezzi. He normally teaches philosphy in Italian, and does not know the name of all the renaissance art techniques in English, but he is definitely competent. The class was interesting and thankfully in Englisih.

After that I went to a bar; no, class wasn't that bad, it was for my next class, Italian Civilization and Culture. Our teacher, Peter Cullen, is the man. Basically, he had us skim an ideologically diverse array of newpaprers and figure out what the main issues are in Italy. After that he brought the bartender over and had us ask him questions (in Italian) about the workings of an Italian bar (e.g. why the hell would people open a bar at 6:30 in the morning and why is not full of truckers, who would be the only people at a bar at that time in the states? And why they drink their dainty caffe's with such relish, and don't bother to sit down?
