italy...

ohmygosh... was watching part of a movie over lunch today on HBO (Only you... yes i'm a freak for romantic shows.. haha) and they showed scenes of Venice... and the amazing Italian countryside.
Hard to believe that just last december, i was there! driving around, getting lost in the tuscan countryside filled with hues of fiery orange and green.. the colours there are unimaginably vibrant, walking along the streets of romantic venice, skiing down the pristine white slopes of the Alps... gosh... i love italy...

haha kor can testify to how i told him i loved venice... i really do.. walking along the streets, exploring the nooks and crannys (really nooks and crannys), sitting in boats moving along the waterways.... seeing the beautiful architecture tt's all gothic and intricate all at one go... gosh it just makes you feel so in love... haha even tho there isnt anyone i love romantically, the place just made me feel tt way. i'm in love with venice haha... its a place i dont have to visit any attractions (pls, i hate visiting places like museums and whatnot tt make no sense to me...) but just immersing yourself into the place, does u a whole load of wonders...

no where in US has made me feel like tt, even tho i've been to a million and one places there... everything there is just so new, and commercialised.. tho it makes me feel happy and vibrant...
france's southern seaside region gave me a somewhat diluted version of what i felt in italy.. mm.. other places in europe, austria has a different historic feel, germany, spent not enuff time there to get any feel... haha but nothing can beat the feel italy, esp venice gave me... haha... i swear to earn lotsa money and take myself there again! haha...

haha well before i can start earning money to take myself to italy again, i hafta study hard!!! argh. sad truth hits me.. i shld stop daydreaming... or rather reminiscing... haha
