I got the job today, and I'm pretty excited about it. It literally involves playing board games with Italian pre-adolescents and speaking nothing but English. However, they are very limited hours, and I'm still trying to find another job that I could work at steadily.
Yesterday involved more calcio with the Italians. Now all I do is run a whole lot when I play with them. And they know I run, so they put me in a position where I can run pretty freely. But it was kind of boring and uninspiring- felt like no one was really into it.
The weekend, for the most part, passed by without a major incident. Just some hanging around friends' apartments, and that's about it. Next weekend, however, I get to see the most incredible person I know.
Also, I'm starting to pick up ping-pong. You know, it's not an exaggeration- Chinese people really are good at it. Yes, I said Chinese. There's a Chinese immigrant here who rules the table, and constantly kicks my ass. Actually, I've been getting my ass kicked in everything here. It's really disheartening- the Italians are better than me at literally everything.
Oh. By the way- I had to take this personality test as part of the selection process. We're talking a legitimate personality test- the readings were eighteen pages long. Had some funny stuff in it too.
Alright. I'm out.
