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...
