With the need to get rid of pretty much everything I own, one of the larger concerns has been, will I be able to sell my piano for a good price?
Tonight that question was answered: YES! A friend of a student has bought it! I'm very, very pleased.
My piano disappears from my life the second week of May. I'm itching for a fresh start so badly that I'm not even sad at all.
In other good news: I somehow qualified for a bursary [for my Italian course in Genova] -- of 50% off!!!
Before I talked to the Italian Cultural Institute here in Toronto about the bursary, I thought it would be a total long shot. Or that I would at least have to fill out a big long form or write an essay or otherwise somehow prove I deserve to save money on studying Italian. Here's the information they actually asked for: my name and the name of the school. Seriously! I may have found the one Italian institution that isn't a bureaucratic nightmare!
Happy things like this keep happening. Which makes me think more and more that this trip is meant to be.
