Well I have been in Florence a week now and it is going o.k. I only had my first succesful day of study today at one of the libraries. I tried to go yesterday but they would only join me up on tuesdays or thursdays (they are german so lots of rules!) But now I am in and it is a good place, lots of stuff I need. I didn't have as much luck yesterday at another library it was very confusing and I couldn't understand what they were telling me, I had thought my Italian was quite good but I am still having trouble understanding what people are saying to me. Nevermind. I am missing Mark so much, we haven't been able to ring each other either because I have no home phone and my telstra card isn't working here because Italian telecom switched them off.

I have been getting quite lonely and bored in the evenings too, hopefully in Rome I will have free internet access so I can come on the internet more.

I have also been watching Italian t.v., so far I have watched 24, sex in the city and some star trek in Italian
