Day Eighty-Four.

  • No new developments on the volcano. Prof Stabile will probably not get here until this weekend but he doesn't seem to mind--he is having a lovely time in Oxford, England with our Oxford program.
  • Woke up closer to normal time and read the next segment for our Econ. class.
  • Headed to the Campus Center to watch the first Film Festival film at 9:30. It was called Last Train Home and was about the lifestyles of migrant workers in rural China who migrate to the cities to work in factories in order to support their families back home and send their children to school. It was a good mix between documentary and narrative and was pretty depressing but, as a good art movie should be, thought-provoking.
  • Italian from 11-12. Ugh, I just cannot bear this awful class anymore. I haven't complained about it nearly enough on here but I'll spare you now that there's a light at the end of the tunnel. I'm learning completely useless information.
  • Lunch.
  • Back to the Campus Center to watch another film. This one was called Oblivion and was about political corruption and poverty in Peru. I guess global awareness is hip these days so it makes sense. Was more of a documentary than the first one and had very interesting "characters" that it focused on.
  • Italian 2:30-3:30.
  • Gym.
  • Napped.
  • Wrote the 2-page paper for Econ.
  • Turned in vouchers at Vin (sandwich for dinner) and Akash (small vanilla muffin).
  • Watched last night's House.
  • Played Monopoly online with a friend.
  • Read a new blog that is, unfortunately, very similar to one of mine. Oh well. I didn't know about that blog when I started mine and I don't really care--the blog is for me and for fun.
  • Listened to WTMD via iTunes.
  • Bed.
