Welcome!
Thursday, June 26, 2003
So, dear visitor, welcome to my new home. :)
I am pretty satisfied with myself... The layout is not perfect and there are another zillion things I have to understand yet, but it just took me a bit more than three days to figure out the whole thing, install Movable Type, customize everything... So I think I did alright. ^_^
I love not having to go through Blogger, soooo much better. And I finally have a proper email address! :)
About the pictures in the layout... Let's see, the flatmates are obviously Freddie, Rie and James (from left to right). The going out pictures... The first one: Sophie, Kirsty, yours truly and Freddie (we were in my flat, ready to go to The End). The second going out picture: taken in a club in London Bridge, from left to right: Dennis, Paul (well, Paul's eyes), Sophie, Ryan, me and Kirsty. The picture just below that one was taken the morning after, when we got back to King's Cross. Then... The Japanese people, from left to right: Mami, me, Rie, Liesa and Hide. The picture under my room (that was my desk, with my laptop and my dear mug of tea) was the first picture I took with James... Moving to the right, you have Tom and Kunal, being so Kunal... The other friend is Jana, naturally, picture taken with a public webcam in Croatia. Finally, at the extreme right you have a picture of Ambar (taken on a bus to a house party...) and below that a picture of Dean and me (taken in his flat by his chinese flatmate with a Polaroid). This whole thing is not too clear is it? Well, it was quite good fun to write it. ^__^
300 pages into Harry Potter. I am going to repeat myself: way too much teenage angst... Mmh.
Rika darling, yes, I've seen L'Auberge Espagnole. I saw it just a couple of weeks before moving to London, I seem to remember... I absolutely love the movie. Basically, I was hoping for my life in uni to be like that movie, and my expectations were met, oh yes they were. :) And all the actors in that movie are so cute and young and good. *lol* I also had just visited Barcelona at the time, so it was nice to see it in a movie.
By the way, my blog has 566 entries, for 262 days of blogging. I blog WAY too much. *lol* But I was looking through some old entries, and it's so funny, to see all the things I've done during this year, all those thoughts and mistakes and funny things... In some way, I think I've grown up a lot since October. :) Kisses to panuru and Cat for commenting. Thanks. *^_^*

Vani! ^^ Sai, in un certo qualmodo anch'io sono d'accordo con CAT; penso che la cosa che più emerge dal tuo blog è proprio una vita fuori dal comune; per quanto mi riguarda è come se, attraverso le tue righe, anch'io potessi passaggiare un po' lungo le strade di Londra, partecipare a delle fichissime serate e sentire proprio la vita che scorre ogni attimo... insomma, è come se il tuo blog fosse un ricettacolo di mondanità e charme! ^^

giaggià...pensa che anche a me il tuo blog fa pensare...mi fa sentire il tempo che passa, come una giovane ragazza diventa adulta pucciata in un "mare di mondo" come Londra...Sai, a volte penso di essere piccoletta e meschina a stare sempre qui a Milano...vorrei pure io fare un cambio di prospettiva :) Smack!

Version

Because a picture is worth a thousand words, and I cannot describe my life better than a picture can.
And because my heaven is here, I'll wrap the world around it and live in a cocoon. Quoting from a favourite song, 'Letting the cables sleep' by Bush, in its incarnation as a remix. And I do wish the friend who introduced me to the song was here to see the way things turned out.
The photos used on this site were all taken by me and can be found on my Flickr account.
