Classes, Naples & 99 days until I'm home...Oh my!

This month has been off to a good start. My classes are becoming easier. I've been doing very well in school too. I've had a new interest in the class of Philosophy. (It's actually a great class.) I've learned the Greek alphabet. (Greek is still super difficult though. Might have to study some more.) 
My classmates Annarita, Maria Vittoria and me! 
My great friend, Maria Rosaria.

      I also took a nice day trip to Naples last Sunday with a few friends. We took the train to get to the center of Naples then we started to look at the many stores. Then we ate a "pizzetta" (a miniature version of the pizza.) Plus, we ate some gelato later. We then continued to look around. I was lucky to find some clothes and some ENGLISH BOOKS. (I'm really excited about my books, ok? Hey, if you hadn't read in your mother language in a long period of time I think you'd be the same.) Then, we returned home after a long day.

Gelateria! 
Gelato (limone e melone) Lemon and Melon. 

My new favorite part of Naples. Look at all the flags. It's exchange student paradise!!!! 

       Guys today marks 99 days until I return to my home in the United States. It kinda makes me sad because as my father would say I'm now a "two digit midget." Thanks Dad! I'm sure I'll be sad to leave my Italian home here but I am returning HOME AFTER 10 MONTHS. I guess the only way to go about things is just take it all in and enjoy what I have in front of me. 
The countdown.....



Until next time, 
Arrivederci!
