I resurface...
I've been asleep for some time now, having stayed away from blogging. Life gets in the way, and as with an old friend, we lost touch, then we find each other again. This is actually a perfect time to resurface: summer vacation has begun in full force, and I'll soon be returning to my Alma Mater, Middlebury College, to continue my graduate studies in Italian at la Scuola Italiana.
Surely, there will be many anecdotes and opinions --for better, or for worse-- to blog about. As to the immediate future, plans are a bit banal: 3 days to unplug at Orlando's Universal Studios. I can't wait to visit Hogwarts.
Ciao a tutti!

One Man's Myth...
We are taught in schools that Greek mythology was just that --a bunch of myths made up by ignorant people who were trying to explain the world around them. Thunder? The god Zeus was angry. Love? Cupid struck again. Feeling angry and war-like? Ares must be close by. But who's to say that their tales of gods and heroes weren't based on actual beings who fulfilled those roles? If you choose to believe in beings with wings who perform miracles, and that a virgin can magically become pregnant and give birth to a demigod, then I choose to believe in Athena, goddess of wisdom, and Aphrodite, goddess of beauty.
