Hey there everyone! Sorry I haven't posted much of anything, but ya know, things have been pretty wild here. What with getting settled in, starting classes, having our professors attack us with nonstop homework, and trips across the city and the surrounding countryside, I'll hope you understand I didn't have much time. So I've finished my first project, taken over a thousand pictures, sketched every day, and learned more from my professors and the city than I thought possible in these few short weeks. And there hasn't been much sleeping, in case you were wondering. I'm only one man, after all. But please enjoy the pictures, and sit tight for a while--I won't be posting for another week and a half at least--we're off to Florence, Tuscany, and Umbria as a class, and then we're all going to Oktoberfest--although that trip is less than school sanctioned. So--I love y'all, hope things are well back in the states, and I'll try to let you know what's up at the next opportunity! Pax!
