So Tech in a Non Tech World

I have previously mentioned how Italians do not really use the internet that much, at least not nearly as much as we do. So I think it must be peculiar to them that we sit at their cafes for hours just to use the internet. But there is just so much I want to do! So I don't really feel bad. I am currently toying with the google pic application Picasa which should allow me to post whole slideshows of pictures up on this website. I am having trouble now and I would love more time to work it out but of course time is not on my side here, just to much to see! Yesterday was my first class in Travel writing and Intercultural Communication. I am really excited about both actually. The Comm prof is Irish and just very cool. My travel writing class is the one that i am most excited about though. My teacher made quite the first impression. She is American but has lived in Italy for 22 years! My initial impression of her is she is tough but still nice and VERY knowledgeable. So it seems the class will be tough but I think i can learn a ton from her! Who knows maybe she will be a major keystone in my quest to improve my writing. I hope so. Life continued... we spent the weekend in Rome which was of course completely amazing! Still my favorite city in the whole world. I might be going to Florence this weekend so that is great. I have not mentioned my roommates yet. I live with Jack, John, and Karl. They are all ultra cool guys. We have a great apartment and all cook together and hang out and just get along great which is a huge blessing! Jack and i share a room and John and Karl have the other. I wish I did not always feel so rushed on these posts but I just want to get some thoughts down while I can. I think for my next entry I will just budget the time so that i can construct it exactly how i want.
