Ciao tutti!
This week has been pretty rigorous as far as rehearsals go. But, it's been raining, so there really isn't much else to do anyway. I didn't pack any warm clothes or shoes condusive for rain, so it's been interesting deciding what to wear so I don't get sick. Yesterday morning it was pretty nice, so I wore these really cool and comfortable white linen pants and a short sleeved brown peasant shirt. But that was a mistake, because in the afternoon it started pouring when I was walking to rehearsal, and I soon became drenched!!! Luckily, the peasant shirt was long enough that when my white pants became soaked and see through, all you could see were legs. I bet the Italian men LOVED that. Haha... So, I learned a lesson and wore black pants today because we got more rain on the way to classes this morning but now it's sunny and hot! I doubt I'll ever learn.
This afternoon, Kathleen McCalla (www.kathleenmccalla.com) is visiting us to talk to us about the opera business and having a career in Europe. I'm so excited to meet her and talk to her. She's also a graduate of Wichita State. You know, between Kathleen McCalla, Samuel Ramey, Joyce DiDonato...Wichita State is really pumping out the opera superstars. :-)
This weekend, we're heading to Verona to see Nabucco by Verdi.
Well, not to much to say actually, been a pretty uneventful week thus far. Except the moment where the guy who proposed to me said "You walk by everyday and you break my heart. After a month, I will have no heart left." Too bad for him.
Hope everyone is well. Stay in touch! Send me emails! Call me! Leave comments! I miss you all and I love, I love.
Ciao mi amore

Oh my friends... how you make me smile. You boys could learn a lot from the Italian men! They are so flattering and charming! Perhaps I will do a post of the top 10 Italian pick up lines. Hahaha....
Ciao e baci.
