Bury my Heart

Ciao a tutti!!

Some more days have past...time rushes by and I feel like I'm trapped in an infinite loop...I'm not doing so much, the usual, listening to music, reading, thinking about what I should do for my thesis instead of actually doing it because I'm scared as fuck....Paranoia a plagueging me and so I throw myself into another Nirvana frenzy...Vive les années 90!!

However, on the 12th December I forced Francesco on the Vespa to go to the Vice Squad show at a club here in Rome. I have never heard worse support bands...they really sucked so much!! One guy was wearing a pyjama on stage and they tried so hard to be REAL PUNKS that it was kinda funny to watch them. The second ones tried to sound like the US Bombs but sounded more like some kind of Italian mushipunk....when the last support band Pinta facile (means Easy Pint *g*) played, Francesco listened 10 seconds of their first song and then screamed Via, via! which means Go, go! because they were a superbad Oi!-Skinhead-kinda band...
Vice Squad were primarily super fast...the singer, Beki Bondage, who used to be a kind of Punk pin-up in the old days of punk, also played guitar and this incredibly well...you don't see so many punk women who play so well....and that fast....here a pic....

Then I tried to write on my thesis but ended up contacting another Professor for an academic interview on good old Thompson and actually Prof. William McKeen, who wrote 2 books on Hunter, is going to answer my stupid questions!!!
But to be able to interview him, I need to go to the US, which will only happen if I apply for the study grant...therefore, I try to write a motivational letter and also some of the questions I wanna ask...not so easy...and I'm so lazy and too bored to anything...

I'm so easily distracted from working on my thesis because I play the guitar so much that my fingers are almost open. A thick skin has already grown on them and I have blue streaks from playing so hard. However, I'm also writing songs...and maybe you'll get something to hear soon...I just need to wait for Babbo Natale to bring me an electric guitar because I wanna make some noise...zu zu zu zu zu

On Monday, I had my first presentation in an University course...the topic was the translation of the Ipod nano manual from German into French...and it went pretty well...I told them I was an Erasmus student...I had prepared a PowerPoint presentation, but as we are in Italy, the beamer didn't work and I had to do it without it...in the end, I got some applause, which made me feel embarassed...I didn't do anything better than the others....maybe my French impressed them so much ha ha ha...
On Thursday, I was in another uni course, it was so boring, I almost fell asleep...On Friday, I went to uni again but when I arrived at the classroom, no one was there, it was totally empty. So I waited some more minutes but no one showed up, so I went home again. Francesco's comment was: This is Italy! No one gives a shit here! and this seem too right...good for me however...

I also fell in love with a movie called "Dogfight" with River Phoenix. Everyone who knows me a bit, knows that I'm not a big fan of love movies and romances, only if they are a bit crazy maybe, see Sid & Nancy...but this movie is really funny, a bit weird, but also goes directly under your skin...it doesn't use many words...and it ends in one of the most beautiful scenes I've ever seen...and in silence...and with every River Phoenix movie I see, I feel more sad that such a talent died so young...which is true for some more people...you know who I mean...

This Friday, I went to Miuro's party with Sarusk, Flavia, Megha and Bebiu...I didn't know so many people there, so in the beginning I was a bit shy...but after some beer, I started talking to some nice people who I've never met before and all in Italian - alcohol definitely helps in languages...and for the first time since I'm here, I went home at 5!! Unfortunately, I didn't take any pics...but Bebiu did and I will ask him if he can gimme some...

Yesterday, was a show at Circolo called Romans do it better (I dunno what but maybe someone can explain this to me...), where all Roman bands like Your Hero, The Gaia Corporation played...I don't like the music but we went there later to see some friends...and after that Megha, Sarusk, Francesco and me went to a bar called Romoli, where they sell super fresh cornetti and sweet stuff in the night...One thing I don't get is how people, after drinking a lot of beer, can eat sweet stuff....I always feel like Goulash (I can't believe that you spell it like this!?!?) or something spicy...but they shove the cornetti and cappuccini in their mouthes like it is some kind of early morning breakfast...here a pic of Megha and also Sarusk...after the cornetti

Apropos sweet stuff...in the Christmas time, people here eat a sweet cake called Pandoro (see a pic)...and I'm in love with it...I knew the Panettone before but I don't like it since there are these dry fruits...Pandoro doesn't have them....and with milk it's just delicious!!





Something funny happened...On Facebook, I play this game called Pet Society where you can have a pet and need to take care of it (yes, I am this stupid!!)...mine is called Zingo Van Frizz and he likes to give presents to Francesco's pet called Fruzzy...one day, I bought a huge white snowman in the game and send it as a present to Fruzzy...but it never arrived there!! My pet had spent 1000 coins on a fuckin snowman that vanished...3 days I have been looking for it..I went to other pets houses to see if they stole it and placed it somewhere, I sent messages to other pets, to ask if they have seen the snowman but no one knew anything...I had almost given up on him, when suddenly one evening Francesco found him in his house..we don't know how this happened...

So much about my exciting life...
Baci...mi manchate...

PS: Music I listen to these days is: Spinnerette (ex- The Distillers) - Ghetto Love EP (still not so sure if I like it), Nirvana - Incesticide & In Utero, The Thermals - all albums, some more 90s stuff...

Back to Grey

Dear Boddah...

This weekend I finally had some visitors from home. My mum, my aunt and my little sister Anna-Lisa landed in Rome on Thursday to spend some days in the eternal city.
We had rented an appartment in the centre, in a super cute little street right around the corner of Via del Corso. When they arrived, we had to tune the heater because the whole flat was awefully cold. They have only one heater in the whole thing!! We brought my family some pizza from the best pizzeria in town in Via Nizza...they loved it. I also confessed to my mum that I got the tattoo because she hadn't known about it before...here her face when she saw it....but her reaction was very positive!!!

Then they went to sleep because they were a bit tired...I slept at my place and at 8 o'clock in the morning I got an sms from my mum saying that my aunt was suffering from diarrhea and was vomiting...so we went to the pharmacy and got some medcine...poor girl had to spend the whole day in bed....

In the meanwhile, my mum, my sister and me went to do some sightseeing...the weather sucked pretty much....but we managed NOT to buy an umbrella from one of those hundreds of umbrella-selling guys in the streets....we went to the usual sights in the centro storico: Pantheon, Piazza Venezia, Fori Imperiali, Colosseo....and my little sister was totally in love with this huge building....then it started to rain heavier, so we decided to go back to the apartment and spent the afternoon reading a book about Rome with my aunt sleeping on the couch.Saturday, my aunt was back in the game and we did the whole tour from the otherside again...and we also went to the famous Mondo Arancino, that I have already mentioned before, to get some lunch...my sister liked it pretty much...After that, we went to Castel Sant'Angelo, my sister started to cry because we didnt want to get inside since the entry fee was about 11€ which I personally considered a bit much...Then we went to the Basilica San Pietro which was very impressive and we were surprised that you can actually get in for free..which doesnt happen too often in Rome...My little sister is going to have her First Communion soon and therefore, she has a little paper in which she has to get a stamp from each mass or church she visits....we tried to get something like this in many churches in Rome but we never found someone to ask. So in San Pietro, I asked one of the securities and they brought us into the vestry of the dome to get it!! Now my little sister has a stamp of the Vatican inside her little church booklet....

After this exciting day, we had some wine and cheese in the little apartment...

On Sunday, we went to a very cool and totally crazy market called Porta Portese...my aunt proofed to be ready for the Italian way of life since she was dealing with people like a native =)
I bought some nice sunglasses and some black-red striped stockings...and my family went home with a lot of stuff...I also got an amazing Christmas present from my aunt that she bought there: This is a bronze skeleton in the famous thinker position...this guy just thought too much!!! I love it!! My first real piece of art...

After that we went for a traditional pranzo in a restaurant called Sale & Pepe which I can only recommend...good sea food. Ensuite, we went to do another walk in the Roman city centre. We saw Campo dei Fiori and from there we walked to Piazza Navona and then back to Via del Corso to take the bus to my place at Piazza San Silvestro...we rode to my place for a coffee, so that they could see under which circumstances I am living here...
When they left, I went to bed since I didnt feel well...my aunt had transmitted her virus to me...I took some medcine to prevent the worst...I also had a cold and was constantly wiping my nose!
At 4.30 o'clock in the morning, we got up to bring my family to the airport..they had their flight at 6:30!! Saying goodbye was pretty tough since I had a good time with them and I sometimes feel a bit lonely in Rome since my so-called friends turned out to be no friends at all...
The rest of the day I spent in bed, watching a movie called My own private Idaho with late River Phoenix who is amazing in this movie....

The next week, I'll put into the next blog...so much for now...and remember, when the going gets weird, the weird turn pro!!

Static Age...we're on a video rage

Dear my imaginative friends...

Times are tough....I'm caught in the first wave of the so-called winter depression that is eating up every kind of motivation or interest in anything or anyone...Moreover, people here don't seem to be into having contact with me...even the ones that I thought were friends...so Im hanging at home, watching movies, playing guitar and writing confused stuff into my notebook. Of course, there would be things to do like having a look around or finally starting to write my thesis. I have read so much but I'm kinda anxious to start writing my first chapter...
I think in some way I'm close to a major freak-out...but this week my mum, my aunt and my little sister Anna-Lisa come to visit me...so there is still something I can look forward to.

The uni here is breaking my balls...I have to do a presentation in a French course and I wrote a mail to the teacher asking for some further explanations...and she answered I should figure this out by myself! Thanks so much!!! Such a b*tch! So I will do something random...me ne frega un ca**o!
In the other course, I asked the teacher to find a solution with me for an exam possibility because I can only do 1 semester of a year-long course....at the beginning of the semester, she said that I will just have to hand in a written essay e basta....the last time I asked her she said, I need to come to her office hours because we need to fix a date for a written and oral exam!!!! What the fuck is wrong with these people???

Im really turning into a first class misanthropist....or like Joe Strummer put it: People are dehumanized....and this is true....
Concerning Joe...I watched a super well made documentary on the life of this impressive and warmhearted musician called "The Future is Unwritten"...have a look, it gives various interesting insights into his turbulent life...and he had just so much style...

Another smashing movie I saw is called The Heart is Deceitful Above all Things with the skilled Asia Argento as drug addicted, abusive anti-Mum....this movie is not for the faint-hearted..if you've like Tideland, you'll love this one too...
Im also back into the my 90s Nirvana and Kurt Cobain frenzy: I started listening to them when I was 9 years old and the outsider everyone made jokes about. They helped me through the divorce of my parents more than anyone else and when Kurt Cobain died, I spent 3 days totally upset and confused in my room. However, there are a lot of rumours around that in the end, he didnt kill himself but rather was forced into it or murdered. Normally, I don't give so much about these murder theories that exist for all kinds of stars or heros of our time, even for Hunter S. Thompsons who said that he couldn't appreciate life if he didn't have the option to kill himself any time. But in the case of Kurt Cobain, there are various inconsistencies in the facts that propose a suicide. If you are interest in this, check out these pages:
The Death of Kurt Cobain
The Cobain Case

I can't say it was murder or not but I think there are a lot of doubts around...maybe they reopen the case and we'll know more...but I don't think this is going to happen as long as Courtney Love lives who might be involved in a conspiracy....I don't trust her for real, just check her lyrics on the Hole album Live through This....even though this album is amazing....and has also probably been written by or with the help of Kurt and everyone who knows Nirvana can hear this...

Ok, this was enough useless information for another week...I'll go back to maybe, but only maybe, start writing my thesis.....ha ha ha

I know

I should update...but my life is so boring and I have nothing to say....

Check this out! IMPORTANT

Hey everyone..

Im back for a short kind of advertisement of a documentary I've watched today...it scared the shit out of me...."The end of suburbia" (click me!!) is about the oil peak and oil depletion which is currently taking place not only in the US but also in Europe and the rest of the world...it describes how dependend on oil and natural gas our lives have become and facing this depletion and its subsequent consequences, we will have to totally change our lifestyles.
We have to take a look back at history and go back to a locally based community structure and economy...globalization will be killed in the end by the lack of natural ressources.
However, the most important thing is to realize that the oil ressources will not las forever but that within our life time, we will have to change our lives dramatically!

If you care, try to get hold of the documentary....

and the sky was made of amethyst...

Ciao a tutti!

Long time, no update...but I have been away from Thursday to Saturday and the rest of the weekend I have been just as lazy as usually...and now Im back to the usual reading and doing nothing - thing...

But now some info on my weekend...Francesco and me drove to Rimini (a horrible drive since it was raining, see the pics) to visit a friend called Arianna. She works in a shop called Skinwear and is an incredible good tattooer. We had an appointment on Thursday but unfortunately, she felt sick and we had to postpone it to the day after. So on Friday, I spent 5 hours on a table with Arianna inking my right arm...the first 4 hours I was fine but the last hour I struggled a bit since it started to hurt pretty much. In the end, Im proud I sat it out and here you can see the beautiful result....

I really have to recommend her and her studio because her work is perfect, clean and clear and the studio is probably the most beautiful I have ever seen. There are so many people with bad tattoos, it's a shame!!! You really should think twice before getting one since it will be there forever!!
I wanna thank Arianna and her team for being so nice and cute and professional and great and and and!!!!
(...I hope my mum doesn't read my page because I want to surprise her *g* She was the model for the tattooo!!)
Here the link to Miss Arianna and her studio if you wanna see more:

After the tattooing session, I took a train to Bologna and met Francesco there because he had been to Verona while I was suffering in Rimini. In Bologna, we met our friends from Forty Winks and went to a club called Covo where Sandro, the band's singer, is working. We had some drinks but I was so tired from tattooing that we went to bed soon.
The next day, we went to a famous restaurant called Trattoria da Vito...it's famous but not good, they told me...famous because sometimes well-known people like Italian singers go there....the food was pretty cheap and I liked it a lot!!!
Then, we hit the road back to Rome and there we went to a show called Rock your weekend with To Kill, Dufresne and Your Hero. Im not into either of these bands but it has been organised by some friends....It was not too bad...
But the real fun came later when we went to the Circolo degli Artisti to keep the party going. There, Luca, our friend, tried to convince the Dj to play "some real music"...he is djing himself and went a bit crazy...I had to laugh so much....and they also went crazy about taking pictures...here you can see some of them....


However, now Im back to normality....reading a new Hunter S. Thompson book for my thesis called Generation of Swine...it is really hilarious!!! And another one called The American Dream - A short history of an idea that shaped a nation by Jim Cullen which, as the title already explains, describes the origins of the American Dream from the arrival of the first settlers on the shore of the "promised land" to various American Dreams that nowadays constitute an important part of the American identity....ah Im getting too much into my thesis now....but Im professional after all...

So leave me a comment if you feel like....Im a bit weird today, so I dont feel like writing so much....Music of the moment: Hole - Live through this, Queens of the Stone Age - all albums

Pints of Birra make you strong...

Ciao Ragazzi!!

Im back for an overdue update...I have been lazier than ever before and the university courses don't make it any better.
Last Wednesday, we had the usual Traffic night with cheap drinks and I was pretty tipsy at some point. After the club closed, which usually happens at the very early time of 2 o'clock, we went to a famous Roman bakery, Il sorchettaro. They sell a thing called "sorchetta doppio schizo" which literally translated means something like "pussy with double cumshot" - it's some sweet bread, shaped like a egg (or a pussy) with a huge load of whipped cream and chocolate sauce. (here, a bad pic of me with a sorchetta)

Friday I stayed home, I watched "One flew over the cuckoo's nest" with Jack Nicholson which is an amazing movie!!!! If you haven't seen it yet, check it out!
After this I read some more Hunter S. Thompson: A story he published in the Playboy mag called "The Great Shark Hunt"....I had to laugh so much because it's just crazy!!

Saturday, my friend Stefania came to pick me up and we went to San Lorenzo. There, it was so difficult to find a bar that was not featuring the soccer match Roma vs. Bologna. We ended up in the Tirabuchon again, took a Vodka Martini and we forced to talk while all the other people, mainly boys, we're screaming crazy soccer chants...and when Roma scored, they jumped up and hugged each other like Obama just had become the Italian president....
After that, we went to a pub called Jolly Rogers which is run by Francesco's friends. Stefania and me were talking, drinking beer and when we realized that you were allowed to smoke in this bar, I almost felt at home!!!
We left at 3, passed by a vending machine that sells 0,5l bottles of Gin Tonic for 1,60€ ( I love it!!) and went to a Pizzeria al taglio at Piazza Sempione to eat huge pieces of pizza....

Yesterday, I slept basically the whole day and watched a movie called Rude Boy featuring The Clash which is pretty interesting because you see a lot of original live stuff...
Today , I have uni at 18.30 until 20...so boring...but I will survive!!!

I found...

...a strange tissue brand in Italy. It's called Peluche and as you can see on the picture, a little girl tries to suffocate her teddy with one of them..the teddy seems to be a bit scared but the girl has a nice little smile on her face..would you give them to your children???

Beware of the Zingo...

Ciao Rega!

Come state? Tutto a posto?
(These are the usual introductory phrases being used in a standard Italian meeting.)

Some time has passed since my last posting and some people might think I have been busy...but guess what, I have been lazy as fuck...this Erasmus semester is becoming a 4 months holiday...nothing compared to the stressed work&uni life I used to have at home...
However, here some news...

Friday we went to see the Stiff Little Fingers at Forte Prenestino...it was fun, they were playing really well, sound was good, they played most of their hits (except for Dead of Night, which pissed me off!!). But to be honest, I had the impression they were a bit arrogant...maybe Im wrong...I dunno..
Saturday was another show, Forty Winks *clickme*, an amazing & in my opinion totally underrated Italian rock band from Bologna, who played at Traffic. There, a friend of mine introduced me to this strange drink called rhum e pera - you get one shot of rum and one shot of pear juice and you drink the rum first, followed by the pear juice...it's sweet and after 6 of them, I was a bit tipsy (Grazie Stefania!!). The good thing is that my Italian gets better with every drink which is a nice side effect!
The night ended with some crazy Guitar Hero gaming in my room with the whole Forty Winks gang who slept at my place since they had no other place to stay...

The day after we were supposed to go out for lunch with the band& some friends but being a bunch of lazy cats, we didnt...we really wanted to but at about half of the way, we decided to go somewhere else...and we rode through town....here some pics of things you see when you ride through Rome on a Sunday afternoon...

We ended up close to the Vatican in a place called "Mondo Arancino". There you get strange food from Sicily called arancini (which means "little oranges")..these are fried balls of rice with vegetables, cheese and/or meat inside....here you see me with one of them...

On Monday, I went to the usual, pretty interesting uni course on "Lexique de l'informatique et des nouvelles technologies", but the day after, things started gettin weird. As I have mentioned before, Italian universities and schools are on strike these days because of a new law that has been installed. So when I arrived at uni for the Italian course, there was no one there and I went home again. Yesterday was the sciopero generale, general strike of all schools and also the uni. There were several manifestations all over Rome, one even got out of hand - see here. So I was not sure if I should even go to uni. I wrote some postings on the uni forum, no one answered. In the end, I stayed at home because the people I asked about it, told me they highly doubt that there were any courses....
Today, I would have to go to one course (a very boring one)...but I got into this sciopero thing and now Im sympathizing with the poor Italian students....(Im being ironic here...)

Maybe it's also the fact that this afternoon Im going to buy a acoustic guitar!!!! I can't wait...after 6 guitar-free years, I'm back again!
However, this morning I burned my right index finger while brewing coffee and now it's a bit difficult to write, so I better shut up...

Have a nice afternoon, Baci

SELLING!!!!

a pair of T.U.K creepers ballerina, size 39, which look like this for 20€!! I bought them 1 day ago over the internet but unfortunately, they dont fit me!!!

Send me a message if you want them....

Agli italiani piace scioperare

This afternoon, I went to uni for my usual French course but there was no one there except for another student wondering why there was no course...
I realized that the course didn't take place because the Italian universities and also some schools are on strike because of this !!! (*click me*)
Berlusconi warned the students that if they continue to occupy the uni, he will send police forces....what a nice premier!!!???
Some students claim that this strike will even get worse and that in some faculties no courses might being held...If this is the case, Im fucked since I need to follow some courses...
However, my flatmate Valentina told me that at this time of the year, university strikes are usual and I should not worry because until November, the situation will have calmed down again...
Im happy today that I didn't have to listen to Prof. Dumenil's boring monologue....

Tonight, we go to see the Stiff Little Fingers, another old punk band from Northern Ireland, who play at the Forte Prenestino...
I'm really happy to see them since you can never know if you will ever have the chance again....they are as old as my parents and I think at some point they might consider to retire...

All lost in the supermarket...

I can no longer shop happily...
This The Clash song perfectly describes how I felt yesterday evening, when Francesco&me went to a big shopping center (si chiama Porta di Roma) close to my house to buy some stuff....and we ended up buying some food in a huge supermarket called Auchan. This store is so immense that I felt totally lost and confused...it's full of special offers, which are no real offers if you recalculate, and basically they have everything there, even an Auchan SIM card....but who buys all this shit??? How do people get the money to buy all this?
The prizes in Rome are freaking me out - everytime I go to buy the basic stuff you need everyday like milk, salad, yoghurt or cookies, I pay at least 20€, although I check the prizes and do not take the expensive stuff. One thing that shocked me was that as a girl, you should never go to Italy if you're having your period because buying tampax will ruin you!! I payed 6,65€ for one paket of a standard brand for 32 pieces...(Im sorry, boys, if you don't care about buying tampax but unfortunately Im a girl...Im awefully sorry)
This is what I looked like after the horror trip in the supermarket!

Another interesting but very disgusting thing happened to Francesco's car. He parked it under one of these tall cypress trees that are growing everywhere...and after one day, he went back to his car and found it all covered with bird shit. My friend Corina warned me about agressively shitting birds in Rome and I somehow couldn't believe it. I asked my friends here and they agreed - so NEVER stop or hang around under a tree unless you like being shit on!!

My friend Kurt (Thank you again, if you read it...) sent me a book called "Macht und Rebel" by Mathias Faldbakken, a hilariously nasty misanthropist from Norway...if you like reading Irvine Welsh, you will love this guy too!

Today is Wednesday, my diploma thesis day that I can spend at home investigating the American Dream...if anyone has found it yet, please give word...

Tonight, I'll go out to Traffic since it's the cheap drinks night there...4€ a cocktail (which basically are super strong since the skinhead guy behind the bar doesn't know how to mix for real) and 1€ the shot or shotini how they call it here...Francesco will provide the music so it might be fun...

Anyway, another useless blog from me, I hope you enjoyed...leave me some comments...it makes me happy...
Cazart...

Rome City Rat...

Ciao belli!!

This weekend I basically did nothing. Except for hanging on the internet, listen to music, watch videos and sleep. I didn't feel like going out or running around. I dunno. Sometimes I need to be alone.
However, I fell in love with the last The Distillers album called "Coral Fang". If you have the chance, listen to it.
And also the DVD on Hunter S. Thompson that has been released some time ago called "Gonzo - The life and work of Hunter S. Thompson". It made me realize that, in times like these ruled by beserk confusion and currupt politicians, we would need some people like Hunter S. Thompson to keep up the hope that there are still some honest guys in this world.

I decided that I need a new hairstyle and made some experiments. (see pics)
I also have a new friend - his name is Tommy Toe and he looks like this (see pic)
Yesterday, Francesco and me went to the Circolo degli Artisti because they had a Vintage market there. It was ok but I wasn't in the mood to scrabble about in huge boxes of old stuff. But I bought a Leopard fur photo frame for 3.50€!!!
Ok, today I booked a flight for my Mum, my aunt Elisabeth and my little sister Anna-Lisa who are coming to visit me in Dezember and Im really happy about this.
And soon I need to go to uni to a very boring course....ahhhhh....

Mi mancate...

Eat

this...

here we go...

Ciao ragazzi!

Some days have passed and I again feel ready to give you some new information concerning my daily Roman life...
Last Friday I went to a funny university course - It's a II anno specialistica course which means last year of studies. The teacher is a young French woman who doesn't speak a word Italian and this confused most of the course participiants because they were not really able to understand her. I had to laugh because the teacher seemed to have expected a way higher level of French...and ended up in a class like this...good for me since I didn't have any difficulties in understanding her and I was actually the only one asking questions in French...Brava Sonja!

Saturday afternoon I went shopping with Sarita. I needed to buy a new pair of jeans and found out that the new boys' jeans from Zara fit me perfectly well...so I bought a nice pair for only 25€! After that, Sarita and me had some delicious ice cream from a gelateria called "La Palma" close to the Pantheon which you can see on the pictures...and then, we went to visit her friend Alessandro who works in a tattoo store...as you might be able to figure out *g*...
When I came home I only had the time to change clothes because I went to a free The Cure show on Piazza San Giovanni. There were about 500.000 people and the place was more than crowded, so I could barely see Robert Smith on a videowall!! They played the whole new album which was a bit weird but in a second part they made us all sing along their hits like Boys Don't Cry or Friday I Need Love...Later that night, we went to San Lorenzo to the bar with the cheap shots (si chiama Tirabouchon) I have already mentioned before...and we had a "crêpe con nutella e burro d'arachidi" (Nutella and peanut butter)...so fuckin delicious!!
However, the day after I had stomach cramps but since Francesco brought the Guitar Hero game, I quickly forgot about them and we (Gerry, Simona, Francesco and me) spent the evening playing like blazes...
Yesterday afternoon, I went running for the first time in 5 years...I felt like my lungs were falling out...and I ran so much, my socks died...

Ok, enough for now, I want a cornettone con nutella (and therefore, I'll need to go running again tomorrow!!)
Cazart!
