Some things I’ve done so far:
· listened to “The Zephyr Song” in a car with 3 Italians that barely spoke any English
· arrived (very) late to my first class
· got a free orange from a friendly fruit stand lady
· said "I'll meet you at the Coliseum"
Some things I haven’t done so far:
· slept for more than 6 hours in a night
· paid to use public transportation – apparently this is the norm
· washed my clothes (Italians don’t use dryers, this makes me nervous)
· memorized my roommates names
“this new convection has left no wondering why
i can't concern myself with ordinary tripe.
like what's this morning's paper got to say
and which brand of coffee to make”
