On air

On Monday my Ethic class took a field trip to a radio station. At first I was not looking forward to this because we were bringing a translator with is and I'm not interested in radio. It turned out to be a lot of fun. Our guide at the radio station was probably an Italian hippy who just dressed up for working.

The radio station had booths for news, and separate radio stations. One was devoted to 60s music and another, called Piter Pan, was for our age group. When we were in this booth, the DJ went on-air and talked about the students visiting from Paderno. The assistant director of the program went on talking about how we were American students studying in Italy and then our whole group yelled "Ciao a tutti" which means goodbye everybody. I wish that the bars and clubs in Italy would play this Piter Pan station because the Italian music was actually good! None of the stupid techno stuff they try to pass off as music (which also happens to be impossible to dance to).

This field trip was way better than our long bus ride to Treviso to tour E-Tree, where our guide spoke inaudible English and just flashed powerpoints to inform us about his company.
