the adventure of building a schedule

yesterday i went to my faculty and tried to find out which courses would be given that are interesting for me. it was not so easy to find the faculty, because there was written "facolta die medicina" on every building and i thought i was totally wrong. a guy sitting in an information office told me that there was something with language too, but he didnt know where... this is what they call information in italy.

i finally found the place the courses hang out what doesnt mean i understood it. there are some notes pinned on the wall, but not on every note is written the beginning of the class so maybe it takes places next year. printed calendars or something like that dont exist. i chose some of the courses i understood and hope that will be enough.

the first started today, and we were 7 erasmus students and 2 italian girls - the course is called history of modern art, and i dont know why the faculty of foreign languages offers a class like that, but perche non!
the second class was more like what i know from leipzig - there is not enough place for everybody so some students stay outside and try to understand something. thats a class called history of the cinema, and we are going to watch stanley kubricks "shining" tomorrow. nice class.


i also picked a german language class which will start in november, a class called germanic filology, a literature course my tutor gives (we will read rafik schami...), and something else i forgot now.

classes do not take place once a week for 2 hours as it is in germany, but 2 or 3 times a week, so its 3 up to 5 hours a week for one subject. also very strange. strange country. strange.
