This week was short and pretty easy. We had reading about Galileo for Art and Science, so those were actually interesting and we had some legitimate class discussions, finally, it only took 6 weeks. For Art History, we went to the Church of Santa Maria della Scala, which used to the biggest hospital in Siena. It housed one of the nails from Christ on the cross. This isn’t true at all, but people believed it back in the day, so it brought this place a lot of money and it was a very big political player in the scheme of Italian politics. I have started to go to the University to use their internet because it is free. They do not have very convenient hours though, so I don’t have much time to use it for. It has been a rough week of sleep for me, with a few people very close to me having problems that I am so far away from. They are always in my thoughts and prayers and I will be home soon.
