Longest day of my life...
I just got back to the apartment, and it's nine at night. Don't freak out momma, it doesn't get dark until about nine thirty. I left at ten this morning. Today has been the most challenging because I have have been on my own most of the day. My roomates are not in the same clases that I am. I took an hour bus ride to the main train station to get a month bus pass, and when I got there it was so big I couldn't figure out where to get it. I had to leave so that I could make it back to class, without the pass. I wasted two hours. Then, I tried to change some money into euros at a bank, but I could't do that either because you can't go through the door with any metal on. Everytime I tried to walk in a recording started speaking in Italian, and I didn't know what it meant of course. One of my teachers went with me, and she helped me do it. She is really nice, and she took some of us out for coffee after class. By the way, my roomates went back to the station this afternoon, and after lots of searching, found the tickets and got me one. I wish I had time to write more ,but I already have homework...alot!
