Mangia mangia!

Today I probably gained 20 pounds.

First day of actual meals, and I of course had my favorite arancina (rice ball).

The rice balls here are truly incomparable.

Anyway, today I woke up, had orientation for a bit, and went to lunch at una pizzeria nella città. I ordered rigatoni carbonara. After lunch I tried to go on a tour to Eatlaly but ended up just going to the super mercato instead because the tour guides kinda forgot about us. Got some gelato and bought some strawberries and cookies, obviously.

After shopping I went back to the room, spoke to the 'rents and relaxed a bit.

8 pm we went to dinner, got pizza and a rice ball THANK GOD!

Went back to the dorms, showered, and got ready to go out.

Walked for what felt like an hour and a half to Campo di Firori, but there were good bars there at least!

Met up with Matt's friend King and had a great time getting to know my fellow PA and Pharm students.

Headed back, took care of the few stragglers hanging behind and we all got home safely.

All in all a very productive day with orientation, shopping, and campo.

Buona notte tutti.
