Today was just another typical Thursday! We were able to
sleep in before we had to catch the bus for service learning at 12:30. This
morning Sydney S, Claudia, Rebecca, Lorraine and I left the apartment early to
go to this great café in Campo Di Fiori that Stephanie recommended to us. It
has amazing fresh squeezed juice; a few of us got the ‘pineapple, pear and
apple’ flavor. It was so yummy I had two! After that we caught the bus to
service learning. I am starting to get attached to some of the kids; it is
going to be sad to leave them! Especially because we aren’t able to communicate
with them in Italian, I feel bad that we won’t get to say a proper goodbye.
After service learning we had our weekly group dinner. Tonight
we had Thai food, and I think lot of us agreed that it was one of our favorite
meals since we have been in Rome! We had Pad Thai, fried rice, dumplings,
shrimp, curry, beef and vegetables… I think I can speak for everyone when I say
I ate way too much. I really enjoy group dinner, it is a nice way for all of us
to sit down together in a non-school setting and enjoy each other’s company.
A few of us are heading off to Barcelona for the weekend and
I can’t wait to lie on the beach, eat paella, and speak Spanish (even though it
may be a little rusty). This week went by really fast… so crazy to think our
time in Rome is almost over. Ciao for now!
