Repeat after me: Italy is boring boring boring..
yupz, just got back from 2 weeks of hols in italy. went to namely milan, venice, naples, and rome.
milan was a shopping paradise.venice was good makan place (we had our best spaghetti there) naples was a load of rubbish cuz we kept losing our way in the mountains, and they absolutely wasted their nice waters by not having snorkelling activities-you gotta rent your own boat and that costs 80 euros for an hour..rome was full of churches again..and the vatican.
so there you are..pizza, spaghettis, lotsa gelato and cuppacinos.
some interesting things i noticed about their lifestyle there
1) you can cheat the government by not paying for bus rides (for security reasons i'm not gonna mention how much i saved by doing that..lol)
2) their buses and trains hardly have the handles that drop down from the bar above. why? cuz majority of their people are tall enough to reach the bar anyway.
3) graffiti is their way of life. they have many michael fays roaming free there.
omg this entry was halfway done and left dangling for sooo long.
basically, you see 1 church, you've seen it all. the trevis fountain was nice, cuppacino so so, pizza depending on location, spaghetti..neh! except for that special one we had in venice. and we kept thinking it was at milan so we painstakingly walked so much before we finally realised we could have looked at the pictures to help us recall where it was..and hmm..you could have imagined how angry and disappointed we felt to find out that it was actually at venice, not milan. we had been looking forward to that plate of seafood spaghetti the entire trip!
the world is such an exciting place. i'm really quite convinced that its very much more exciting to be a cabin crew than a pupil pharmacist, though the latter is a respectable (but not as highly paid) profession. lolz. facts arent pretty, but to do some justice, its really a challenge to handle a pharmacy, and you learn hell lot of things. way to go. 6 day week, average of one to two 3 hour tutorials per week, plus 95 reports to do in 9 months. lets stock up on multivits. *poot*
