Uffizi Gallery
Today I was woken up early by some Italian electricians who came to put a censor on our light I guess. Since I was up I went to the gym and pumped it! Later on I went to my Love sex and marriage class. We visited the Uffizi Gallery with our class and saw a lot of famous paintings such as Botticelli's "Birth of Venus" and "La Primavera." It was really cool to get an art history lesson and see the actual painting in front of you rather than a slide. The only bad thing about the class is that there is a group of kids in it that don't give a shit. During the entire lesson they stood in the back in a circle and talked while our teacher told us about each painting. I found it really ignorant of them. They are in Italy looking at very famous historical paintings and are on their blackberrys ...are you serious! Why would you take that class/ come to Italy if you are not interested in learning about the culture. At one point I said something to them because they were pissing me off, and later on a girl came up to me and said thanks for saying something to them, they were getting on my nerves, and it wasn't just today every single class they talk. Know the types of guys who think everything they say is so cool but they are really obnoxious.. that is what they are like BAH sorry about that tangent! Anyways after class I went got a cafe latte grande via porta bought some more books for my lit class and went to Ganzo for dinner. I can't believe tomorrow is already Thursday which means it is the weekend! I have fun day trips planned so I am excited.
