Internship-wrecked and other news

I got the Italian Cinema Studies Internship, yes! I'm nervous because I'll have to speak fluent/correct/good/not-fucked-up Italian to Italian directors coming for the Italian SIFF (google: italian siff). Sono nervosa, non voglia fare cazzate! Devo studiare, studiare, studiare ma anche praticare, praticare...

Update-
Ran into my Ital. Cinema TA on the bus home yesterday. I didn't catch her name, but I'm sure I'll seeing a lot of her soon. I need to do my research on Ospetek. And by research I mean watch his films! Yay. Haha, best research I could do though, right? I can't wait to see all the SIFF Italiana screenings for free with the directors (le regie).

Speaking of the internship, I'm still trying to scrounge up $271 in order to get the 5 credits! I'm registered for 3 right now (or a total of 18 credits for this quarter), but I need the whole five or else it won't make a huge difference for the bottom line.

In other exciting news, I found the most wonderful discount for the Seattle Opera! That way, the Italian Club and whoever else wants to come can see Lucia di Lammermoor this month at 50-70% off!!! I should inform Samantha and Nyasha about this, I'd love it if they could make it down from Bellingham to see it with me. Imagine, my very first opera. Mio Dio, bisogno di trovare il vestito! Bisogno i vestiti per l'opera ma anche per SIFF!

Something along the lines of...
or

Burberry knows how to do sequined dress. Period. And Kate Hudson knows how to do clothing, in general. Love her. Anyway, I've become incredibly side-tracked...
That's a que for me to get on with my morning and start being productive. Practice Italian, anyone? Penso di si. I do want to do a small Italian conversation group this Sunday if anyone's willing/avail.? Maybe Cafe` Allegro, Zoka, Solstice, etc... I'll decide tomorrow morning.
