Thanks

We had Thanksgiving in the Cenci! It was delicious and huge, but kind of overwhelming. It made me really pretty homesick though. And pretty sleepy.

On Friday we had an all day art history class to Hadrians villa. It was a really beautiful day - there was something in the air that made it feel not just like a warm day in the fall but actually like spring. Like winter had happened but was now over. It was strange and maybe a little unnerving.
Yesterday it rained all day. I went for a nice walk, but otherwise I've just been working in studio all weekend. It's hard to believe that this semester is almost over. I'm kind of a little stressed about all of it.

This morning I got up kind of early and went to another service at S. Cecilia. It was really beautiful this time - I don't know if there was something special about this week, but the music was different. This time all the nuns had instruments - There was a flute, a mandolin, a drum and some shaky thing that looked like an abacus. It was so beautiful.
