Raindrops in the Afternoon

I wrote the following story based on my own experiences as an American girl in Italy. Although I was born and raised in NY, my parents were both born in small towns in southern Italy. I discovered what it really means to be Italian-American through the many summers I spent in those towns. I think part of the experience of being Italian-American is sometimes feeling as if you have one foot in the U.S. and one in Italy, and as I'm sure the story will illustrate, that was definitely the case for me… Continue

Benvenuti a tutti
Potreste ascoltare le canzoni che ho
messo nella mia pagina?.
Ho scritto queste musiche per il periodo
di Natale. Spero che vi piacciano.

(I can only hope that my Italian has some
semblance of sensibility)

Greetings everyone--
As time permits, please click onto my page
and listen to some of my original Christmas
musical compositions that I've created for this
most holy of seasons. The holidays are right
around the corner, so--enjoy!
Augie

i'd love to come down and meet with you guys ... i know you said you were having meetings this week -- is there a certain time/day that works?

there's a possibility i might not be in the city until after thanksgiving, would that work as well?

The contest will close in February 2008. We've not announced the day yest 'cause we're not sure. It will be the day in which we hold the closing conference of the Eusic Project (Eusic = Empowerment of the US-Italy Community). It's the international project funded by the Italian Minister of Labour and directed by a partnership involving Rome's University "La Sapienza", America Oggi and CUNY's J.D. Calandra Italian/American Institute.
This project has made possible i-italy and in that closing conference the winners of the contest will be announced.

Our office is located in CUNY's Calandra Institute, 25W, 43rd St. Next week we'll hold meetings with all memebrs of www.i-italy.us who are interested in discussing with us in person various ways to collaborate. Hope you'll come.

Hi Marisa! Welcome to i-italy.
Why don't you tell us something about yourself? We all would like to be your frinds...
I was told by other friends, here, that you are a journalist and writer... is that true?
