So, obviously..since I've not been updating bfore I lefy, you might just got that I'm in Rome already :D
I'm using my friend Chiara's notebook at the moment and we're about to watch a movie (even if it's almost 1 in the morning and we'll have to get up at something around 8:30 to go fetch another friend at the airport LOL
Oh well, who cares.
Btw, Rome isw all windy and rainy right now. Very Forks, but not so very cool :D
The BIG EVENT (Rome Flm Festival, exclusive Twilight footage plus 15 mivutes of the movie, just to be speficip even if the ones of you reading my journal already knew) is in two days (I should say 1 though cause technically it's already Wednesday) and we simply can't wait.

As I already said, there'll be plenty of babbling and other fangirl activities later on, so right now I just want to let you know that I'm having  a great time here and see yu all soon!

Kudos!!

I'm warning you, there's a lot of ranting in the first part of this post - feel free to scroll down a bit - LOL cause I'm officially the most unlucky person in the world.

Okay, bad news or good news first?
( Bad news, that is. )

On the bright side..and a very BRIGHT one!
( ..a little update on the Twilight @ Rome Film Festival event, yes? )
Btw, I'm going to leave for Rome a few days before the event, probably on Monday 27th, to spend some time with my friend Chiara ans visit the city (I've been there twice but just for one day and I didn't really have the chance to see a thing aside from the Colosseo and the Olimpic Stadium) before we get stuck in this whole Twilight frenzy LOL and I should be back on Nov 2nd
Yes, I'll do my best to take tons of pictures and vids from the event.


I'll get back to you before I leave for Rome, anyway.
Now I gotta go 'cause - among other things - I have an exam on Wed so I better go to bed and rest a bit before I have to wake up again to put my nose on Hystory books once more.

I fucking love my Country!
I LOVE ITALY MORE THAN YOU CAN POSSIBLY IMAGINE!
For those of you that are thinking I'm losing it (might just happen in the next 10 minutes), I'll try to explain why I'm on the verge of tears (of joy) and i'm like orgasming on the spot LOL

Robert Pattinson, Kristen Stewart and Catherine Hardwicke will be in Rome on october 30th to present 15 minutes of the Twilight movie and never-before-seen backstage footage at the International film festival..Obviously I'm fucking going! LOL

And now I can die happy an all fuzzy inside.

So here I am.
I got back from my cruise on Sunday and kind of slept all the way through Monday and half of Tuesday LOL
You know, before I left I thought cruises were all about relax and sleeping and sun bathing and swimming in the pool.
I couldn't be more wrong. I mean, sure you can do anything but relax and all that, but truth is it can be boring on the long run.
We actually stayed aboard only on Monday, when the ship was in Naples, but after that, we went ashore on exursion every day in a different city, and almost every excursion we chose was in the morning, so no sleeping through the morning for us. On the contrary!
Wednesday morning, when we were visiting Tunis we actually had the meeting point at 7:30 a.m. LOL yeah, I know.
It was so much fun though. I have to say I always had my doubts about cruises, you know, thinking about staying on the ship the whole time, but I'm glad I've been proved wrong.
I've been in 5 different cities - Palermo, Tunis, Palma de Mallorca, Barcelona and Marseille (Em I SO thought of you while I was there!!) - and 4 different countries - Italy, Tunisia, Spain and France.
Fascinating countries, all of them, but if I have to pick one as my fave I'm gonna say Spain. People are so NICE! It's warm but not too hot, Barcelona is so FULL of history and art and last but not least, you can go shopping without getting grumpy about how much money you spent, because it's cheap. I can't say the same for France, though. Damn they're expensive!
So yeah, I'm definitely planning on going back to Spain as soon as I can and take the right amount of time to visit the city properly.

I made like TONS of pictures but I'll be posting just a bunch of them, because they're really a lot and because I'm lazy :D
AND, since photobucket apparently HATES me, I'm uploading them on couple of facebook album. And I actually had to use two albums cause I uploaded something like 120 pics. Considering I took over 700, that's almost 1/3 of the total LOL
You can find the pics here and here. I'm sorry probably just the ones who are friends with me on Facebook will be able to see  them for now. As soon as Photobucket gets collaborative again I'll upload some there too and edit this post with pics.
You can now see the pics HERE, in my holyday picspam, as you probably have already noticed on your own LOL

Let me know what you think!

As for my getting-back-to-reality process..I'm starting this new little job on Monday. well actually I'm going to meet my 'boss' tomorrow afternoon with the girl I'm going to be the sostitute of. Nothing too exciting, really.. I'll be sort of babysitting a couple of kids, take them after school, make them lunch and take them to the sports centre in the afternoon.
Nothing exciting, as I said. But it's still work, they pay me (quite well actually) and I can be out of the house for 3 afternoons a week, which is SO good giving my mom's grumpiness lately.

It's vacation time for me, finally!!!
I'm leaving tomorrow morning for a cruise on the Mediterranean. We (me and a friend) will be visiting southern Italy, Tunisia, Spain and France.
8 days of complete and utter relax! Yay!
I'll be posting tons of photos and videos as soon as I get back.

Be good while I'm away! LOL

PS: Ok so..I still haven't finished reading Breaking Dawn and I think won't read one more page until I get back from my vacation, 'cause I'm not taking it with me. My friend is waiting for the Italian version this fall so I don't want to take the risk and spoil her by mistake.
I'll be taking Vampire Academy by Richelle Mead, though. Thanks EM!!! Love youuuuu!!

I just can't believe it yet, I need some extra time to process the whole thing in my head without panicking or hyperventilating or something like that, like I've done in the past 15 minutes or so.
Have I ever told you how much..HOW FREAKING MUCH I LOVE my country??
I mean, seriously! And the most amazing thing of all is that..since we have a few hours difference from the US..the movie will hit cinemas HERE before it will in the US!

I can't even concentrate!

I was meaning to post something about my first impressions on the first half of Breaking Dawn today, then I found out THIS and..really, people! it's like I don't even know my name anymore LOL I had to call a couple of friends and give 'em the GOOD news. It doesn't really matter that one of them is actually the same friend (keitmi ) I'm going to spend the week-end with and that I'll meet her in exactly 9 hours..which reminds me that I probably should have been in bed half an hour ago since I have a train to catch early in the morning and it's about midnight now.

Btw, I guess that BD-impressions post will have to wait until I get back on Sunday night. Oh and of course there'll be a LOT OF RANTING - you've been warned - about this other little thing a.k.a. Midnight Sun and its non-publising. Which sucks, big time *frowns*
Until then...


</lj>

Ok, so I still haven't gotten my copy of Breaking Dawn, so yeah, the hiatus thing still stands.

I'm posting because I just wanted to let you all know whan an AMAZING LJ (soon-to-be in person!) FRIEND I have!!
*drums roll*
I'm super HAPPY because Em (inthevast) has like..just taken a train to come and see me!
I mean, seriously! You know she was in Paris the last month (you knew, right?) and she came to Italy to pay a little visit to Rome and a few other cities..well..she's been awesome enough to catch a train from Bari just an hour ago and I'll go fetch her at the station in the morning! *_*
I'm excited beyond belief and I can't wait to finally see her and give her a big bear hug!

That's it..I'll post pics and everything as soon as I can, but in the meantime..YAAAAAAY!!!

Hi everyone! Yes I'm back and welcome to a completely restyled version of my journal!!! I doon't usually pimp myself, but I want to do it this time around LOL
So, header and coding are mine (I've been up very late for the past few days to fix the css and general settings), and I'm proud of what I came up with.
What do you think? Just comment and let me know! Feedback really makes me all kinds of happy. Concrit is welcome too (unless you're complaining about my tv-ship taste or something like that. This is MY journal, after all, get over it! Besides, Lois&Oliver ARE cute together LOL). Here's a screenshot of the old layout, just in case you need any reminder. ;)

I have a HUGE (and I mean HUGE like I've never made so many icons in a row like this time) icon batch I'm hoping to post tomorrow. At least I'm gonna post half of it while I'm working on the other half. I won't spoil you the subject, but maybe you can guess what it is? LOL

Also, I snagged a meme from tiredofrunning7 earlier this evening and I ended up taking another couple memes more over at BuddyTV, so blame her. :D

We're almost there..Christmas is coming and  I'm really happy cause I managed to have all done in time and I'm all fuzzy with holiday spirit!

Decorate the tree, check.
Christmas cakes, check.
Buying (ALL) the gifts, check.

Plus, my VM Secret Santa task is almost acomplished! Yay! Told you I was this deep into holiday spirit LOL

I have to rant a bit, though..
A few hours from Christmas (my favourite holiday ever) and I'm stuck with a terrible cold! I mean, seriously! Come on! i was perfectly fine yesterday night when I went to bed, and this morning I woke up with a scratchy throat, coughing like mad. Not to mention a reasonable difficulty at breathing properly. God I hate feeling feverish! On the bright side, my mom doesn't bug me with 'do this' and 'fix that' LOL which, believe me is gold!
Well, actually this isn't going to be a real HAPPY Christmas anyway. My grandpa has a surgery procedure fixed in between Christmas and new year's eve, probably on Dec 29 and we're all a bit  shaken. He keeps on saying it's nothing to worry about, bu obviously we worry, a lot.

Btw, I really hope veryone of you has a GREAT Christmas, full of gifts and sweets! Stay cool, see you all in a few days!

It's time for some thanks to.
Yesterday I hade NO time to ran through my f-list as I usually try to do day by day, so today when i did..I found a bunch of AMAZING dedications for my birthday.
I wanna thank every single one of you guys, so here it goes.
