Here I am! I've been to Rome for 2 days and it was beautiful... And what else? Not much, I don't even know why I'm writing this... *lol*
I met my best friend from junior high for the first time in 2 years and meeting Jana again, in Venice, on the 2nd of January. I feel very cool indeed - I'll spend one day and one night with a group of very nice and smart and interesting croatian people. ^^
Apart from that... I've been playing with Nerverwinter nights a lot and I've been reading a lot too. And I've seen 2 exhibitions in Rome, etc. etc.
Sooooo... Happy new year to everybody. ^^

I know Christmas is only tonight, but I probably won't connect again today, so...
HAVE A NICE CHRISTMAS!!! *^__________^*
Ah, a question I think could be interesting: do you celebrate Christmas on the 24th or on the 25th? In my family we open the presents and everything at midnight on the 24th, or generally in the night of the 24th, but most people in Italy open the presents in the morning of the 25th... what about you? ^^

The post I wrote while I was in the train from London to Paris and couldn't post... :)
13/12/2002
listening to: Cousteau - Sirena
Such a beautiful album - it makes me feel melancholic and nostalgic and happy in that strange way...
Writing this entry from the Eurostar... Oh my God I feel so cool. *^^*
The train was leaving London and I wanted to cry... I am probably exaggerating but... Seeing the red-brick houses, Waterloo behind me and all that britishness leaving me... I was so sad. Because London is my home, my natural home: I wasn't born there, and it's been the first time I have been living there, but in my heart it always was the place I belong to. I don't know why, I don't think it's the most beautiful city in the world, it's not the cleanest one and it's not an easy city to live in or anything but... It has something special, a soul (like every city in the world, probably) that created a tight bond with mine. As Kirsty would say, me and London are "tight mates". *lol* (it's a long story, involving Kirsty, Dave, Freddie, me, Ambar and lots of weed XD)As you can see, the train making me talk and think in a really serious way... *lol* I don't know why! It's just that when I travel, let it be train, car or train, I find it easier to think - because I am bored probably. :)
Wow... Two more hours to go... And I don't think the battery will last that long, because I am also listening to music - maybe if I switch to my mp3/cd player it's going to last longer. (I FEEL SO TECHNOLOGICAL! *lol* I only need a webcam and a palm pilot, and then I'll be perfect)
Yestarday was such a funny and sad day at the same time... I said goodbye to my flatmates - I felt like crying, I still can't believe how lucky I am to have them, I mean, they're such great people. James and Freddie and Rie - even if one day our friendships will come to an end, I'll never forget them, because... In these 3 months I have seriously had the time of my life. I probably haven't been that happy in 5 or 6 years. Last night I watched Fame Academy with Rie and her friends and Hide's mum (I don't know why but they love that program - I personally think it's crap, but well...) and then we ate some cake because it was Rie's birthday... Then around 12 I decided I would go to bed but suddendly realized there were like 5 parties going on around the building. So I went around with Dulcie for a couple of hours stealing alchool from other people's kitchens, got drunk, went to Sophie's room and smoked a splif with Sophie, Kirsty, Tom (Kirsty's flatmate) and some random japanese guy. Actually he was very nice - I think he was called Yohe? I can't really remember. He spoke really good english and he was rather cute too. Anyway. Met also a really nice japanese girl called Miwa and a japanese guy who was just weird. He came into the room and suddendly asked me what I was studying. Then went on talking about Vietnam and then started speaking chinese to Tom (who's 4th year doing chinese).Then we had a really nice discussion on books (we were actually arguing *lol*) and I agreed with Tom that Shangai baby is basically crap. And found out Sophie likes Baricco - who is, imho, the most boring writer in the world. I heard one of his interviews once and he is really clever and funny etc. etc. but his books... So boring.
Then around 3 I decided it was finally time to go to bed but ended up sitting in the corridor in the floor above mine listening to people (Dominic and some of his friends... Dominic is so sweet, he is very cute... *lol* Why am I always thinling of guys in these terms???) playing guitar, freezing to death and drinking juice from a bowl (that was so funny - they've been drinking everything from bowls since the beginning of the year because they don't have glasses - I think it's hilarious)...
It was such a nice last night of term. Just enough - and I went to bed at 5! But I wasn't that tired so it was ok.
And now... Paris... Going back...

I can't believe it - I unexpectedly succeeded in connecting to the internet. ^^ I can't stay very long (you know, it's the only telephone in the house and stuff), but well, it's better than nothing.
Thank you to all the people wishing me Happy Christmas and stuff, the same for you! I love you guys ^^
Oh, e per tutti gli italiani: mandatemi i vostri numeri di celly che quando arrivo in un posto civilizzato dove il celly prende vi mando gli auguri ^^ Questo riguarda Lu-chan, Satine, e chiunque altro sia interessato ad avere un messaggino da Vanina/Vanilla/V. ^^

So, here I am. Ready to go to Italy. My plane is at 12. *sigh*
It's like, I am happy to go because our house in the country is beautiful, but... No internet connection and no friends ;___;
So, to all you people, have a nice christmas with lots of presents and a happy New Years Eve and have fun and everything, and I'll see you again in a couple of weeks (coming back on the 7th of January). *^^*
Kisses kisses kisses. *^^*

Haven't blogged in 2 days as nothing really interesting happened. I went to 3 different doctors in the last 2 days. The problem is, my mum told me I had two appointments with two different doctors on tuesday, but she got them wrong. They were on MONDAY. People, that's my mum. I managed to see one of them anyway, so friday I am getting new glasses. I haven't been wearing glasses in at least 6 months. It's going to cause HUUUUUGE headaches, but well... There's not much I can do about it.
Apart from that, I "worked" on my Christmas presents (I've got presents for my mum and my aunt - still nothing for my dad. Any idea?) and Christmas cards (to put with the presents). Why is it s difficult to make MEANINGFUL presents??? *sigh* Actually, I have 5 or 6 audio cds that I downloaded from the internet that are a "common" present for my parents. But I really have to find something else for my dad...
I am leaving on friday for our country house in Italy... It's going to be so damn cold down there. Already here the heating is barely working... Argh. And I won't have a permanent connection there - I can connect by dial-up from time to time but not much more than that. So tomorrow I have to finish replying to lots of old emails and tell everybody that I won't be able to reply seriously until the 7th of January (when I come back here).
This year, as usual, I am going to be the person with the most presents in the family. I don't know if I should feel good or bad about it. My parents have been spending so much money on me it's ridiculous. And my dad is selling the last of his most beautiful ancient books, a first edition of Goethe (he already sold a Shakespeare's second folio at the beginning of the year to pay for my rent and stuff)... My family is so bad with money. We can't handle having money in our hands, we have to spend it. *sigh*

She is my mother and she lured me into a Dark Alleyway... Come here too...

Oooh, the time when I was a little innocent teenager... Life was easier.
Ho ritrovato una "collezione" di bigliettini i quando ero in primo e avevo 14 anni... Che cretina che ero. XD Andavo dietro a un tipo che naturalmente era un deficiente. Adesso mi é venuta nostalgia delle mie amiche dell'epoca, Chiara e Fabiola. Spero di incontrare Chiara a Natale ma Fabiola non so neanche più se vive qua o in Sardegna. Che triste perdere i contatti con le persone con cui credevi che saresti stata amica per sempre...
Time goes by, and it's so sad and beautiful at the same time...

Today I woke up at 12... I am becoming such a procrastinator lately - even during school periods I now have to be up just before lunch anyway. It's bad bad bad for my sleeping routine. I'll hopefully get a job in january and put everything back in order... *lol*
I did some more shopping with my mum today, and got all kind of bathroom stuff (foundation, shampoo and shower gels), a really nice scarf and another nice top. I AM SO SPOILED!!! I feel bad for my mum!!!! ^^;;;
What else? Not much happened apart from that. I am really not in a reply emails mood... Which sucks. And having a not-so-fast connection sucks too. it's like, I can't download mp3s at all - in London because of the firewall and here because it's too SLOW. Baaaah.
Tomorrow I have to buy presents... Hard hard hard. I have to find something small for my mum (she already has some things), my dad, my aunt and possibly my brother. And I have to make nice presents cards for everyone, and download at least 4-5 albums from the internet for various presents, and it's so slow it's a pain in the ass. And because of the damn slow connection I also lost a post I wrote yesterday at like 1 a.m., and I didn't have the energy to write it all over again. Actually, it was a survey.
Bisogna assolutamente organizzare qualcosa per Roma!!! Io sono sicura che ci vado (i miei vogliono fare il Capodanno lì, io ancora devo decidere) quindi... Che bello *^^* Misatuccia, tu che sei un'esperta, chi c'é di bello a Roma, voglio dire dei vari bloggatori e non? :) E dobbiamo assolutamente incontrarci Dada, si si si. ^^

Today I am 18 years and 4 months old... 4 months, it's all it took to change everything...

Misa cara, saro' in Italia dal 20 dicembre al 7 gennaio, di base nella casa dei miei in mezzo al nulla tra Toscana e Umbria - ma voglio assolutamente riuscire ad andare a Roma e possibilmente Milano per vedere degli amici. Ehi, qualche speranza di riuscire ad organizzare qualche specie di meeting? Sarebbe troppo bello... ^^
I went shopping with my mom... I have so many presents I feel guilty. :)
1 pair of light beige leather boots (with fringes XD), 1 pair of Adidas shoes (you know the taekwando style ones?), 1 maroon skirt, 1 jeans skirt, 1 andes style hat, 3 bras with matching panties, 1 pink pajama... I am really happy *^^* It looks like since I am not living at home anymore my parents want to buy me more stuff... *lol*
And I have such a nice advent calendar - I have a REAL present each day. Yesterday it was a mascara and today one of those lipgloss sets, with 5 different colours... Wow. ^^
My mum told me she'll give me 100 € for the presents I have to buy and mangas (I missed so many of them in french it's crazy), I hope it will be enough... I really really really have to find myself a job in january.
Anyway, I am happy to be in Paris with my parents and everything, they're such nice people... Once again, I feel lucky. ^^

I had this really nice post I wrote on the train, and I can't post it because the cable doesn't work on my laptop. >_<
Anyway. I am in Paris. I am going to shopping this afternoon with my mom... YAY XD I'll be here until friday and then I'll be in Italy, without an internet connection... ;__;
Dada/Roses, vi metto nella family appena mi sistemo con i computer... Non pensavo che avere 2 computer fosse cosi' complicato :)
My mom said it's ok for my new domain and everything... Yay *^^*

Ok, I have to reply to some 20 zillion comments now... :)
Roses, sono riuscita a beccare solo una foto di un paio di stivali della Phard (stupido sito senza catalogo online) e sembrano... Woooooooooooooow che belli /me ama. Ma perche' le scarpe mi piacciono cosi' tanto??? ;__;
Dada, scusa per il ragazzina, non era veramente diretto a te cmq. ^^ Per quanto riguarda i "labels"... Ok, credo a te quando dici che per te essere pariolina non vuol dire pensare in un certo modo ecc. ecc. ma... Pensi veramente che sia cosi' per tutti? Io penso che mettersi un nome, pariolino, truzzo o quant'altro e assorbire relative idee (e parlo per esperienza vissuta e persone che conosco) e' solo un modo per non dover pensare, o ancora nascondere che non si ha una mezza idea in testa. Indossare una specie di uniforme fisica e mentale. Ne conosco di gente cosi'. Un esempio? Un mio compagno dell'anno scorso, che e' passato da semi-truzzo a pariolino... E stava li' che parlava di musica e bla bla bla e quanto e' fiko ecc. ecc. Te pensi che sapesse elaborare anche una sola idea con il suo cervellino? Assolutamente no. Lui diceva che "gli zingari e i negri fanno schifo", le donne vanno maltrattate, che e' perfettamente normali menarsi con qualcuno per stronzate, ecc. ecc. e perche'? Perche' queste sono le idee che ha assorbito dalla sua famiglia, dal suo ambiente e soprattutto dai suoi amici.
E inoltre, e' normale che COSI' tante persone possano inserirsi in una categoria? Mi sa un po' di "pecoraggine"...
Sai, io un po' di cose dell'ambiente romano le so, ho parecchi amici li' e poi sono vissuta a Roma 10 anni. E quando avevo 15 anni e stavo a Parigi nella mia minuscola scuola mi rodeva il culo perche' non potevo essere a Roma con le mie ex-compagne per andare al Gilda ogni sabato pomeriggio e vestirmi con questo e quello... E poi mi sono chiesta: ma non riduce i miei orizzonti voler far parte di una categoria cosi'? Perche' se tu sei truzzo o quant'altro vorra' probabilmente dire che andrai sempre in quella discoteca o quel posto che piace a chi decide nel campo dei truzzi e non ti vorra' mai voglia di provare nient'altro (e stessa cosa per musica, amicizie, ecc. ecc.)
Per quanto riguarda il discorso gallinelle, non era certo diretto a te ma alle altre persone coinvolte nella discussione. E io non ho assolutamente nulla contro gli adolescenti - voglio dire, sono una adolescente anche io sai??? Ho ancora 18 anni mica 30. ^^ Quello che mi da' fastidio e' quell'atteggiamento che hanno certe persone nell'adolescenza di diventare iper-aggressive. O di comportarsi come se avessero sempre ragione e gli altri dovessero solo stare zitti. L'avro' avuto anche io questo atteggiamento - ma l'ho superato taaaaaaaaanto tempo fa. Almeno un 6-7 anni fa direi. ^^
Non faccio assolutamente di tutta l'erba un fascio. Il mio discorso era generale per non dover specificare a chi il discorso era diretto, che non mi sembrava carino.
Oh, per quanto riguarda il link, avevamo detto family no? Non mi ricordo piu' che membro della family ero pero'... Ops. Se ce la fai a dirmelo prima di stasera che poi domani parto e sara' un po' un casino sistemare il blog. ^^
Cos'altro? Oooooh si, complimenti a Cat per il nuovo layout! Go Cat go go! (imitazione dei Garbage, *lol*) ^^
Jana, the worst thing is that tomorrow I am going home and then to Italy and I KNOW that I'll buy a zillion books. And I already have so many to read here! *lol* I don't know why, but in the last three months I've been reading very very very little... And I feel bad about it! But now I have one free month and I am going to read like mad... *^^* Oh, and yeah, we can smoke weed in our union bar - the only place in London in which you can do that, I think. *lol* I remember that when I decided to come to SOAS my brother started asking around about it, and found out about the weed thing... He was shocked! It made me laugh so much. XD
Lu-chan, lo so, il nuovo Harry Potter e' troppo bello. ^^ Personalmente mi e' piaciuto piu' del primo. ^^ Per quanto riguarda il nome del dominio... Sai che mi piace proprio??? E' quello che mi piace di piu' di tutti tra quelli che mi sono stati proposti... http://www.lotus-scent.nu/... O .net? Mmh... Devo dire che .net mi ispira. Adesso devo decidere se voglio farmelo regalare dai miei per Natale... Non sarebbe male... Con Aruba probabilmente, mi sembra la cosa migliore. Il server che usa mio fratello su cui e' tutto il mio sito non e' male, ma non ha tutte quelle belle cose tipo cgi et similia... ^^ Guarda che leggere nel bagno non e' difficile, basta che stai attento a tenere il libro sopra l'acqua XD
That was the longest post I have ever wrote, I think. It took a long time but it feels good. ^^

I am so sad. I said goodbye to Freddie and James. I still can't believe that I won't see them for one month... One month suddendly seems such a long time. Can you believe it? ME being sad because it's the last day of school? Until six months ago I felt shit having to go to school everyday, it killed me inside... And now I want to go to school, and live here, and have to study but go out all the time... This is crazy. Everything has changed so much...
On a more bright note, I got 60% on my economics essay. Best mark in my tutorial group. *^^*

It's so nice to not use the computer for one day, come back and find so many comments on your blog ^^
I'm going to reply to anyone very soon - now I am pretty busy packing and everything... I can't believe I am going to leave London for ONE month... I am going to miss it so much... Sigh! ^^

I've been to Waterstones. I want so many books it's just crazy. I added a trizillion books to my amazon.co.uk wishlist... I WANT BOOKS! I like to read too much ^^ I don't know how people who don't read can even survive... I can't. Books are like air to me. I read when I wake up, I read when I take my bath, I read on the bus, I read on the tube, I read when I wait, I read when I eat (alone), I read before going to bed... *lol*
I think that if I had 1000 £ I would probably spend half in clothes and accessories and the other half in books...
Anyway. I bought a really really really nice green SOAS jumper. /me happy! I feel like I belong to my uni now. SOAS rules! (and you can smoke weed in the union bar - how cool is that? You get stoned just by walking in the bar actually XD)

I watched Almost famous yesterday - such a nice movie... It makes you want to live in a period like that, the 70s... It looks so nice. And thinking of my parents... They did so many things in the 70s. And in the 70s London was cheap XD
Anyway. I HAVE TO FIND PRESENTS!!!! ;___;

Cara Sara, come ho detto stavo solo esprimendo la mia opinione visto che mi sembrava assolutamente ridicolo che te e Dada foste li' a litigare per nulla. Mi ha semplicemente fatto un po' rodere che, senza aver fatto un bel nulla, mi sono subito beccata un bel "smettila di menare stronzate"! Come ho scritto qualche post piu' sotto, non trovo per nulla 1. rispettoso nei confronti di altre persone 2. educato in generale che una ragazzina (e bada bene che quando dico ragazzina intendo una ragazza sotto i 20 anni - includo anche te, come Greta come me nel quadro) non riesca a parlare senza una parolaccia o due per frase. Non che io non ne usi, Dio me ne scampi, ma almeno cerco di moderarmi. E trovo anche abbastanza fastidioso essere attaccata per non aver detto nulla. E per il "persone piu' vecchie di me", era diretto a Greta, che essendo una gabber ergo un mito puo' permettersi di dire alla prima che passa di stare zitta.
E non per far partire un flame, ma dei vostri litigi del cazzo da bambine non me ne frega un emerito tubo, stavo cercando di essere GENTILE e di far notare che era tutta una cavolata. Ma vabbe'.
(Oddio quanto mi piace essere acida XD)
Sorry for the english speaking people. Just a random flame with random italian girls. ^^
Actually the flame made me realize something. Why do italians love so much categories? If you are under 18 you NECESSARILY have a label. Gabber, Punk, Tamarro, Pariolino... Why don't people forget about that and GET A PERSONALITY??? It always makes me think. I mean, it reduces a person into a stereotype. If you are a [insert category name] you act like that, wear only [insert brand name]'s clothes and listen only to [insert music genre].
I don't really get it.

That's too funny: Naked Quidditch match XD Thank you Ragabash for the link! *lol*

Ditemi se c'e' qualcosa di peggio di svegliarsi con mal-di-testa-da-influenza??? Sigh... Per fortuna che e' il mio giorno libero. Sono rimasta a letto fino a mezzogiorno. Pero' dovrei andare a fare lo shopping natalizio. ARGH. =__=

There are 3 japanese girls, 1 japanese boy and 1 japanese mum (the boy's) trying to pump air into an air bed just outside my door, and as they can't, they're happily chatting. And laughing. If at least I could understand them??? =__=

I'm in love with Fornarina's shoes. Vintage looking shoes... Mmmmmh... (I'm such a clothes freak XD)

Is there anything worst than 15 years-old italian fangirls with blogs who fight over the most stupid stuff? Ma poi, e' una mia impressione o le ragazzine sti giorni (manco fossi vecchia io poi) sanno solo dire cazzo-stronzo-minchia-merda? Io mica parlavo cosi' 3 anni fa. Piu' che altro per una questione di rispetto. Mah...
(sono anche riuscita a farmi dire da una povera ragazzetta che "devo dire meno stronzate" per un commento completamente innocente! Grazie! ^^)

I've got stoned for 3 days in a row. Yay for me. I think I am pretty much... Stupid, right now. And I'll be for the next week. Ahahah... I should stop (no, actually i shouldn't, it's funny XD)
Apart from that... Nothing exciting. Might going to the Mayfair club tomorrow night. I'm definitely going to LSE's place on friday. And I already miss London - I don't want to go back for 1 month! Way too long. :)

Matt Damon is the sexiest thing on earth. I need a guy. QUICKLY!
(yep, random 3 am thoughts again)

I am stoned again - YAYYYYYYYY! Started smoking at 2 and still are, with Kirsty and Freddie and James... And I really can't write anymore and I just want to laugh. AAAAAAH! And I have to meet my mom's friend in like 2 hours. *lol*
I am really sad though - I haven't been going out with the "crew" in the longest time (=1 week). I really have to next week - because I'm going back to Paris on saturday... I am so saaaaaaad ;__;
Going to have another splif and eat my spring rolls! OOOIII!

I don't want to go to sleep. I don't know why... Anyway. HELP ME FIND A NAME FOR MY NEW DOMAIN. It must have vanilla or lotus in it. HELP ME!

I'm participating to BookCrossing.com! I'll release my first book, Fay by Larry Brown, next week (probably on tuesday). I'm really excited!!! *^^*

I want a new domain for my blog. I could even transfer everything on a new domain. Mmh... I have to find a name though. What about vanilla-lotus.co.uk? It has to be with lotus, no doubt on that. Any suggestion? Please help me find a nice domain name with lotus... It must be .co.uk or .nu or .net. HELP ME!!! ^^

Go read Colors - it's damn interesting and well done. Thank you Jana for the link. ^^

Ah ah. Drunk drunk drunk. Had a really good night with Dulcie and other people. Ah ah. Going to bed now! GOODNIIIIIIIIIIIGHT! AH AH!

Ancora, grazie a te (grazie per aver controllato Netscape e si, e' proprio difficile risparmiare qua... Ogni volta che faccio la spesa finisco per spendere 20 £!!! Accidempolina ;__;) e a te per i complimenti - Angelo, a me la pagina non da particolari problemi di lentezza a caricare... Non capisco. ^^;;;
I've got lots of food that I have to finish before next saturday. I won't have too many problems I think :) I'm a bit tired but going out with Dulcie, Ameriga and her friends tonight. I haven't been out in 5 days! /me happy ^^ And I'm finally going to see LSE's union. ^^
What else? I want to get to know better some people in one of my tutorials. There's a cute guy too... Mmh. I'm starting to feel a bit too much my 3 weeks of being single. I DON'T LIKE THAT! WHERE ARE THE CUTE GUYS OUT THERE??? COME OUT! *erm* I should control myself. XD

I am so sick of what is happening. And so sick of people who think one is right and the other is wrong. WTF, people, don't you see? Israelis and Palestinians are just killing their people, and nobody is right. When innocents are killed, nobody is right nor wrong. And then we have other dickheads (excuse me for the word, but it's necessary) like Bush that think that doing a war against INNOCENT people (because the so-called War against terrorism has been killing only innocent people, who, besides, are already suffering because of their political/social/etc. situation) will be good.
I hate all this.
And you know what? This is the reason why I am doing development studies. This is the reason why I want to work in a NGO or for the European Community etc. etc. I want this to change. It might be an idealistic thing to say, but I want to change the world.

Next week I'm gonna get a SOAS jumper, so that I can really feel like being part of my uni.
Yeah, that was one of those crazy thoughts that pop out of my mind at 2 at night. ^^

Here I am! ^^ Thank you for the compliments on the layout everyone (specifically, you you you you and you). Hope everything works out fine with it. ^^ I know it works with Mozilla, Netscape anyone? (I'm sure it doesn't work with Netscape =_=)
Today in my Cultural foundations of SEA class I met a really nice italian girl. Her name is Ameriga, she's italian and going to L'Orientale (Mary, so che e' stupido da chiedere, ma non e' che la conosci? E' al quarto anno di lingue e civilta' giapponesi...). She's completely crazy and really nice. We spent the whole (boring) lecture writing down stuff on sheets of paper. It's like... instantaneous friendship. ^^ I'm going out with her and her mates tomorrow night. Cool ^^
Apart from that... I've got 65% on my essay! I'm so happy *^^* It was like, my first essay in english. I've got the same mark as my english friends. ^^ It's a second upper class mark. /me happy *^^* (ok I'm repeating myself)
Ok gotta go study vietnamese! ;)

As you can see, I opted for the new layout in the end. ^^ I like it much much better ^^ And now I'll go to sleep - I have to get up at 8.30 tomorrow morning! Argh! I didn't even know one could wake up so early XD

I am sorry to say, I already dislike this layout... You can see I didn't work on it too much, I really... BAAAAH! So... I already made a new one. But I'm going to ask YOU my dear visitors if you like it better than this one. Here is the new layout (I miss Nana too much - and there's Hachi too this time! ^^)!
PLEASE COMMENT and tell me what you think about it ^^
(I don't want it to be stolen, so I put my name on it, in a big big big font *grin* ^^)

I just watched Cruel Intentions 2... It's not as good the first one - not at all, but I liked the whole idea. It would have been so much better with Ryan Philippe, Sarah Michelle Gellar and Reese Witherspoon. It sounds quite right, I mean the story... It's a good pre-Cruel Intentions. And the guy playing the protagonist is not bad at all. The others are not very good though... And a bit TOO much sex - in Cruel Intentions it was more hidden and consequently... More exciting ^^
Anyway. Misatuccia non ti preoccupare Nana Oosaki tornera' presto, giuro! Se non prima per gennaio ^^
I haven't studied vietnamese at all today - I haven't even done the homework for tomorrow =_= And I even don't know what the homework is actually XD

New layout ^^ I can't decide whether it's good or not though. But I'm quite proud of myself - I used divs for the first time in my life (and you thought I was an experienced webmistress! Ah!) ^^;; And I can't tell if you can read the text on top of Aya or not ^^;;; Somebody please tell me? XD
La la la... I am still sick. Ah ah. And haven't studied vietnamese today. But I'm happy because the department of education and skills (oh oh big name) is contributing to my tuition fees with 639 £ = my parents have to pay only another 400something £. ^^
Going to eat something now me hungryyyyy XD

Here is the title I came up for a playlist for Championship Vinyl: "A list... Of songs that make me cry and make me think and in the end make me happy"
Is that ok? Oh sempai-big expert can you tell me? ^^;

I'm tempted. Should I participate to Championship Vinyl or not? Apart from the fact that I don't have the sligthest idea of what my playlist could be (the theme doesn't make much sense in my mind - but it will soon!) and that my cd would probably end up as the most conventional/boring, it could be fun... Mmh...
(I should be studying, but my head is way too confused to do anything - aaaaaah I hate to get the flu... I think it's the flu, 2 of my flatmates have it! ;__; I probably have a high temperature or something... *sniff*)
<- it took me 5 minutes to write that piece of crap - yep, I'm definitely ill.

I am sick
* headache
* sore throat
* swollen eyes
* disgusting nose (I can't say more than that)
* complete sleepiness
But I should be studying vietnamese. Bwaaaaaaaaaah ;__;

I studied vietnamese! Yay for me. It's not enough (yet), but I will keep studying every day this week. I swear! ^^ The next things that I have to do are: translate a couple conversations (actually, 8 conversations) - finish my lists of words - study more the lists - continue the sheet with all the different construction of sentences in vietnamese - do a list of all the expressions like Pleased to meet you, Thank you etc. ^^ I have to say, I really like vietnamese. It's difficult but really nice (I saw an indonesian book the other day and I must say... Vietnamese sounds better. But indonesian doesn't have tones and accents *sigh*).
Apart from that... I didn't reply to the emails in the end ^^;; I don't know why, but I can't be bothered right now.
OOOOOH and I'm proud of myself, for the first time in 3 months I cooked myself 2 healthy meals ^^ (apart from the ice cream and cheese on toast in the last 2 hours O_o;)... For lunch I cooked a turkey breast with soya sauce and rice with vegetables (frozen, but well, it's already something XD) and for dinner I did spaghetti with little fried tomatoes... I love that thing - my dad always did it for me in Paris... *nostalgic*
And I've been eating lots of fruits lately. And I swear after I finish the ice cream I have left I won't buy ice cream anymore. ^^
Last thing I wanted to say... Unfortunately it's in italian (no, actually, it's beautiful because it's in italian) but this is the most moving thing ever. And her blog is fantastic - intellectual, interesting and... Really nice. ^^ Go and visit!

Here I am! I just spent a really cool week end I must say. REALLY tiring but cool. *lol* And a couple people now consider me as completely crazy because I went to Fabric two nigths in a row. :) I swear I'll never do it again though! It's just too much :)
What else? Not much is happening in my life. Nothing really exciting I mean. No boyfriend namely. *sigh* But I'll find one I swear (oh my god am I starting to act like Bridget Jones??? AT EIGHTEEN??? ^^;;)
Today I've been good, I woke up at 10 (which would be late for a normal person but not for me! On monday I only have a tutorial at 4 ^^) and I went to Sainsbury's (and bought fresh meat for the first time in 3 months)... And now I am blogging and I'll also reply to various emails (laziness was on me again and I didn't reply to emails for 4 days! Gomennasai <- Is that the correct spelling? I can't remember...)...
Gypo com'e' che conosci Fabric? Cmq 8 ore in un club cosi' passano in fretta - ci sono talmente tante cose da fare!!! And yeah, I found a fairly good kisser... *lol* But nothing special really. ^^
Lu-chan, fortunato te che te li puoi permettere i cibi pronti - accidenti la minima cavolata costa 1.50 o 2 £... *sigh* Non me li posso decisamente permettere - con un budget settimanale di 100 £ me la cavo a malapena... Figurati che oggi mi sono comprata 4 miseri petti di tacchino e costavano 3 £!!! E' una follia. I really need to find myself a job. I'll do it in january. I don't want to work too much though. Maybe 8-10 hours per week (the maximum for a part-time job is 12 hours per week anyway, isn't it?). Anyway, you really should come to London! You can easily find a last minute ticket and then stay in a hostel, which should be fairly cheap. ^^
I know I am bad - the only day I NEED to wake up at 8 is thurdsay, and on tuesday at 10 - all the other days I am free to wake up whenever I want to. *lol* I feel really lucky XD

Spent 8 hours in Fabric last night (dancing sitting walking kissing drinking). Got back at 6.30. I. AM. DEAD. I'll (eventually) blog again when I'll (eventually) wake up from my numbness. Bye!
