Lol, look at my university's website's new layout (archeology section) ---> ...funny header! ^^

This morning I went back to Venice, as I had to buy new contact lenses. Then my cousin and I went to St. Marco's square, so that she can took some pics with her cellphone. What can I say? I was disgusted and nauseated. They threw my beloved city in the rubbish. So full of tourists you couldn't even breathe, it looked like Disneyland. And garbage everywhere. And the shops? They all disappeared! Now it's just full of restaurants, masks shops, and souvenirs shops. Ugh. No wonder all Venetians are slowly leaving the city, just like me, it's impossible to live there anymore. =_=

We came back all sweaty and tired, and we spent a couple of hours browsing through my mp3 collection so that she could take the songs she liked for her mp3 player. It was truly a nightmare. "Nirvana? They suck. Iggy Pop, Velvet Underground, Bruce Springsteen, Muse, Neil Young, Coldplay, Nick Cave, all horrible!" While I was trying to recover myself drinking a massive amount of iced water (read = ice cubes), she started playing her music: cheesy pop songs that made my ears cry out for help. And then, she played My heart will go on, and I tried to commit harakiri on my bed. Really, it's just like talking two different languages. The funniest thing is that it's happening exactly the same thing this week on my favourite web comic, Ozy and Millie! XD It feels just like being in the Hotel California, surrounded by people you don't understand and who don't understand you as well!

Now I'm trying to save my brain by listening to massive amounts of Coldplay, Nick Cave, Green Day, and the Reservoir Dogs soundtrack...

EDIT: I forgot! Yesterday we started watching Invasion. It was so weird, as it was almost a year since I last watched something on tv besides the World Championship finals, and the commercials looked so...strange. I'm not used to them anymore. The show itself is interesting, although having grown up on X-Files, it doesn't look that original to me. I wonder if it'll change in time... today we'll see the second episode, and from the looks of it we'll have a hard time having a shower before going to bed! Don't touch the waaaaateeeeer.... XD

Da una 15enne non puoi aspettarti diversamente, anche se avrei da ridire sui Coldplay, credevo piacessero alle ragazzine e invece...

Beh, frena un attimo, a me a 15 anni piacevano Bruce Springsteen, Neil Young, Creedence Clearwater Revival, Beatles e via così, ma mica vivevo su Marte! O_____________O Certo, mi piacevano anche smelassate che ora mi fanno accapponare la pelle, ma non solo quelle!

Devi pensare che siamo di due generazioni diverse e poi in effetti i gusti sono gusti, per esempio nemmeno io a 15 anni ascoltavo Bruce Springsteen...

Hai visto il nuovo capitolo di xxxHolic? La donna è proprio un cadavere, e inoltre Watanuki inizia ad aprire gli occhi su Himawarichan

L'ho visto, ma non ci ho capito nulla, come al solito... :( Credevo fosse una bambola rotta, che casino... ma la promessa con Himawari-chan che c'entra?

Aiutooooo, non capisco nienteeeeee!

Non c'entra niente, lo so, ma... hai visto Host Club 14? Il mio amore per Tamaki cresce a dismisura! *___________*

Vederli giocare a "Un, due, tre, stella!" mi ha fatto morire! XD

L'ho visto l'ho visto e splendida icon! Tamaki fa morire dal ridere c'è poco da fare ^^ Ma gli Hitachin twins sono fantastici quando lo difendono, il loro Lord!

Verissimo! Anche gli altri, il Re nell'Ombra, davvero un bel gruppo! Peccato cedano sempre ai suoi occhi da cucciolo! XD

Certe volte cerco di immaginare Kiba al suo posto, visto che è la stessa voce, e mi piego dal ridere! Certo che per Kiba è facilissimo fare gli occhi da cucciolo! :P E se penso ai 4 lupi che giocano a "Un, due, tre, stella"...

That's an awful shame about Venice. I've never been there but I always had a very romantic image of it in my mind. I suppose that's the problem - EVERYONE does!

It reminds me of an article I read a while back about historic sites of the world that are in danger like Machu Picchu and Anchor Wat. They are being literally eroded into dust by the thousands (probaly millions) of feet that pass over them every year! Not to mention the Galapagos Islands. I don't think that anyone but a small number of scientists should be allowed go there.

I agree. I don't say we should ban tourism here in Venice (that would be stupid, I know, as it's the main source of money for the city), but we should decide a number of tourists allowed by year, and stick to it! When I was a kid, in the 80s, there were tourists, and still my mom took me on my babycar every day at St Marco's square. Today, it's absolutely impossible. You don't see Venetians there. It's depressing. And all those people contribute in making the city sink, and even if there were lots of scientist who told that, nobody cares. =_=
