Giocatore Del Violino
There is a person...I think man...who plays the violin. I like it, he's pretty good so thats always a bonus you don't want some shammy guy plucking strings...and sounding like a strangled Iguana. Which on all acounts would be bad.
Anyway, SO up to 1st of September- Primo giorno di settembre- and I went to Bologna...ha told you I would go back...LOL anyway, this time was just to see what the deal was with the language course thing...I kinda probley didn't have to be there but I was all up for the meeting of new people. So this time I had to get up early...really early cause I was ment to be there by 9...I was a bit late...eh dunno how long by but ahh it didn't matter in the end!
I got lost...cause I don't eactly have a DETAILED map of the city...more like...
..so not your handy dandy road map LOL. It works...most of the time unless you can't read your wrting or...it just dont go the way it says on the paper...or you loose it-yet to do! LOL So I trundled around looking for this place, and kinda got a bit lost. Which was a bummer...but I managed to follow a person with a map. Ha if you see someone about your age with a map...follow them, they might be lost too...but hey YOU CAN BE LOST TOGETHER LOL.
Eventualy found the place. Went inside saw the people I had met the other day and then spoke to to the random man at the counter...then went OK...he wasn't exactly helpful or useful..I was just there to fill in time...kinda...and then I went outside. Where I met some more PEOPLE. I met the people who do the Erasmus thing, and a random French dude-David. I was like hey wow go the randomness LOL it was pretty cool, They gave me an piece of paper telling you what the deal is with the activities and any important things you need to know...that thing...starting with...I... yeah that thing...and was like cool cool.I was kinda over the big city scene, feet hurt and it was hot so wondered back to the train station and went back to Cesena.
Rest of the day was lazy as my feet were killing me from the day before. Did washing...with the fantastic 1 washing machine...hate...and then hung clothes out to dry around my room! LOL I didn't want to pay for the dryer and plus it might shrink...so I was like...eh NO.
The squeeky dog is back...I dunno...and the violin man stopped...bummer...
2nd-A recovery day and clean room day, I got food too so I was like EXCELLENT...and a bonus Pasta was on SPECIAL...oh my...WOW LOL.
I think the tv gets weirder everytime I watch it...more the fact I can understand a little bit more each time I watch it so I guess thats the difference...LOL...thus it's weird!
3rd-Cruisy day wondered a bit. There is a random "managery" I am not sure if thats how you spell it but it's a random collection of animals and other stuff...just kinda plonked in the middle of like...concrete...kinda weird really. I was just like hey wow look at that...smelt weird so I walked fast...
Here in Italy Twisties-cheese flaveored twisted puffy chip things-are called FONZIES...hmm yeah I dunno...random fact for you...
4th- I went back to Bologna to OFFICIALY register with the ERASMUS thing...even though I am not an Erasmus Student...cause Australia isn't a European Nation...so yeah. Oh but at Cesena train station there was an old man who was TAKING FOREVER on the Ticket machine things...and I needed a ticket quick! So I had to do the...talking to the person one...I was like HI CAN I HAVE ONE TICKET TO BOLOGNA PLEASE...no copito...UNO TICKET BOLOGNA...ahh si si one way or return...ONE WAY...quatro Euro Novtanta cento...4.90E...GRAZIE...prego! And you get a wee little ticket and you gotta validate it using the yellow box thing. Brilliant.
I met a girl from Latvia, guy from Bulgaria-he didn't know alot of English so short as convo, guy from Germany, girl from Germany, guy from Scotland-Great to talk normal English again and another girl from Germany. I waited close to an hour...to register...but I got a cool badge and sexy Card...with my name half choped off...so my name is HRYN YOST...ExcELLenT LOL but it's cool...in a way meeting all new people but a bit of a bummer cause they are all in Bologna and none of which are in Cesena. So hopefully I get to meet some new people when I do the random language course thing soon. MARVELLOUS!!
I was walking back to the Stazione and then one of the German girls I met was on her way to this UBER...LOL UBER in the presence of a German ahahahahah...CHEAP ( DON"T MOCK IT CAUSE IT"S CHEAP-Lock Stock and Two Smoking Barrells-)supermarket...shop doobey called LIDL...yeah...similar to LIDEL but you kinda don't pronounce the E and it jsut kinda all comes together...or jsut ask someone who is German to pronounce it for you.
So I went with her to this shop thing and we did the small chit chat thing, she is doing Agriculture so I was like hey wow...I live on a farm LOL...everytime I tell someone I live on a farm and have cows...1 they ask what a cow is...and 2 they ask if we eat the cows...no we don't...they just mung out on grass...and look pretty. I am sure dad has a better reason as to why we have cows.
We were met by a random Italian OLD man...who was saying something about something and waving his hands around and what not. I didn't UNDERSTAND A WORD!!! I was like yeah he's confused...and we moved...on. He said in German that his "heart is Crying" it's the only thing he knew in German I wa slike oh poor man. LIDL is like chickenfeed. You get random stuff that has "FALLEN" off the back of a truck and thus UBER cheap. I got like 200g of salt for like...less then 50c LOL I was just like hey wow. That was the cool thing about it. It wasn't big kinda like the size of...a not very big supermarket...like Grove Shops or the eating bit of MacDonalds. General sizing...so not big...but enough to hold a fair bit of stuff!
So yeah. I went to the train station and she went to the bus station. I am yet to get on a bus! I swear when I figure out how they work I am never walking again!! LOL maybe to the bus stop! LOL
The random thing about the train station is that you have to pay...70c to use the toilet...I dunno if guys do...But I was like eh...what...kinda make sense you know...u pay for the toilet paper and the person to clean so yeah...but i wonder how many poeple would have stood htere trying to get 70c out of their bags and then...it's too late. HA who pays for that?? But there is a change machine and vending machine next to it...so I guess you can get change from either of them...I was just a bit like OK!
Got home and was like ok...sleep!!
5th-Went to the Architecture faculty cause I was going to meet the guy who welcomes the international people to Architecture. I found out that I am the FRIST International Student...they get Europeans...but not like other students. So I was like EXCELLENT...I am doomed!! LOL met the guy and he was nice. I can apparently do any course I want to..and i think they have the same core subjects like in Tassie. But a guy will send me the English version of it all so I can choose! EXCELLENT.
The man I spoke to was really nice. He had GUCCI glasses so I was like yeah. He said a couple of things that kinda hit home to what Architecture is all about. Firstly "we speak the language of drawing"-very true, and secondly "I think it is important to meet people and experience different things"-I guess thats what my exchange is all about, and you have to learn from the past and other people in order to understand what Architecture is all about. So by that encounter I was bit more freaked out but at ease about alot of things. So it was good. Kinda looking forward to picking subjects. I may or may not pass...but hey by the end of it I get a pretty certificate saying I was at the University of Bologna! MARVELLOUS!!
So that was the end of my adventures! It was seriously rank and hot and horrible eh...so I just sat...and didn't move move for the rest of the day!
5th-I went to a place called Rimini. I was looking for a church and I knew it would be ages away. I didn't find it cause well I had to cross two MAJOR FREEWAY things...and I aint playing chicken with Italian drivers...they ARE NUTS!!! So i kinda just walked around nad just kinda saw the sights.
I got lost and then found where I was. Saw a monk I was like ahahah, lol. Met another random person and got freaked out by a bus. LOL Bought some food. And since when do Smarties packets come in hexagonal shape??
I was walking back to the station and was walking close to a fence. Just kinda plodding along...and the loudest deepest BARK!! you could ever imagine EMMINATED from the fence LOL. All I saw were the big black paws and the tip of a black head. LOL I was like ahahhah...I didn't scream but I did indeed laugh my way along. LOL there was a man watching me lol and i think it was planned! LOL It was funny. Kiinda woke me up!! Made my heart pum thats for sure!
Rimini is kinda small and very similar to all the other towns I have visited...thus having the Italian tradition. Alot more Germans though...and water. There is a beach near by but didn't go that far but saw boats and green water! LOL
There are some photo's pf Rimini! Cool hey lol
At the moment there is a FOOTBALL game on that the entire apartment complex is watching LOL and something bad happened cause Marco-Deleti's boyfriend just got angry and hit something along with the entirity of the males in the apartment complex LOL its great!!!
va bene-all good
Arrivederci

Minnie Mouse here..oops forgot my password for the blogger log in...
Absolutely adored your blogger to Bologna. My house rocked with laughter.
Loved the pictures...Kat is now finally an official UniBol student... WOW...will now call you hryn from now on....I reckon the Kat confused them...hahaha
Glad you are finding your way around UniBol. Well done!!! Pity about your feet, will have to wear some seriously comfortable runners...Finding the correct bus will be the next challenge I guess.
So happy you can choose your subjects in English...
I don't reckon it's about whether you will pass or not, but it is more about focusing on doing your best at any given task...Like having your personal map written out before you headed out...that was soo cool...
And of course enjoy learning a new language...Your Italian also sounds sooo impressive...I bet you will find your church in Rimini next time round...Don't give up...
And last of all, it is the most special time of your life... You choose this adventurous challenge on your own...so enjoy every minute, you deserve the best...'cause you chose the best...
And Arrevedechi....
Hey,
It was for the Eramus Student thing that I am HRYN YOST not for the university. anyway, yeah dad is sending my oh so missed cons over so I can't wait for that!!
ALL my subjects are IN ITALIAN...the only thing that is in English is the list of courses...so means I REALLY HAVE TO LEARN Italian. One word a day at the moment!
I will try and do my best I can't ask for more
Anyway
have a good one
-KAt
