I want to go back

I haven't blogged in a while. I've been busy with school and really haven't thought much about it. But I thought I'd put down one of my thoughts that has been nagging me.

I NEED to go back to Italy. After only a few weeks of class I am already ready. I thought it was great going there after a few Humanities classes at BYU. It was amazing to see the things that I studied. But I know so much more now!! There are way cooler archaeological sites to go see than just Pompeii. I would love to be able to spend a few months there getting to know the place outside the tourist realm. Today they had a study abroad fair at my school. If only it were realistic for me to go....
I love the culture and history of Italy. It's such a beautiful place. There is so much to do and see there.

I need to learn Italian.

Did you take all of those pictures?? They're so pretty! I am sooo excited to see Michaelangelo's Pieta. Especially since I just recently read My Name is Asher Lev, and his reaction to the statue is so moving.
