The Language

At my music lesson this week, my professor and I spoke in Italian for the first 10 minutes. We didn't talk about anything musical, just what each of us had been up to since I hadn't seen him in 3 weeks. He said my Italian was good, which made me happy. It wasn't perfect by any stretch of the imagination, but I was able to convey what I needed to convey. It was a good ego boost for me since recently I've been getting pretty nervous about how I'm going to do when I'm suddenly plopped down in the middle of a non-English speaking country for 9 weeks.
