Rain Rain go away,

Roman weather has been beautiful so far, today was an exception. It was thirty two degrees out, and raining, with 13 mph wind. And my three hour morning class was outside today. bummer. The good news is that I found several more awesome churches to explore, and when I finally returned home the hot water was working. I was quite cold, an old man on the tram asked me if I was cold, and I replied very cold. We had a broken (on my part) conversation in Italian, but I was quite pleased with it. I took a twenty minute shower, and was still cold for a half an hour so even out of my wet clothes, and under my comforter. I didn't do as much work over the break as I had intended, I really just wanted to curl up in my bed and nap the afternoon away, not an option. Instead i made a grocery list for next week, and a packing checklist for my spring break. Before I knew it it was time to head back to class, and I still walked despite the rain. Italian was fun as always, we're still talking about food, and I imagine we might for the rest of the semester, it's just the way off things here, and I like it. After class it was back into the rain, and I stopped by a tabacci for stamps, they didn't have any. I needed to visit an art gallery and write a review of the show for my art gallery management class, and I had looked one up over my break. I took the tram halfway and then walked. I think i picked the perfect gallery for myself. The show was by a female artist and detailed an abortion she had. It was incredibly personal and emotional, very beautiful. The regret and pain was imminent in the work. It referenced prayer often and one of the works was a version of the annunciation. It was a well put together and extremely interesting show, it makes me want to visit all the galleries, and continue this habit once I'm home. I worked on studying for my opera midterm tonight, while talking to Becca and Vince. I did not get much studying done. Oh well. Plenty of time for that on Thursday and Friday. I calculated a budget for Stu tonight, and making sure I was prepared for class tomorrow.
I'm glad I've decided to make lists to keep myself organized, I nearly forgot I need to print off my tickets for my spring break flights and check in online. I know myself well enough to recognize list writing as essential for keeping myself in line.
