Fiorentina Forza Viola 3-0

Mio Prima Partita di Fiorentia Calcio.  Gilardino has juice!  In just two minutes after entering the game he scored two goals within 6 minutes of each other.  'Nuff Said.

SIESTA!

One of the most significant words in my vocabulary, and all of Italy for that matter, is Siesta.  The midday nap, taken either during the 6th hour or after ones lunch meal, soothes all of the morning woes in many Latin influenced countries.  Italy, no exception, prides itself on siestas as a maneuver of masculinity in which any drained man should recover his midday machisimo vigor in all but 90 minutes.  Although I beg to differ, I cannot complain about siestas before preparing to bullshit for another few hours of "work".

Evidently I have a tendency to prolong these siestas like "Days of Our Lives", as does the majority of Italian society.

Weekend Trippery!

This weekend I rolled to Venezia via Eurostar vs. TrenItalia coach train collabo with my Architecture homies.  It was rad, I went to the Mostra Internazionale di Architettura (an event held once every 4 years).  It's romantic city.  We got lost at night, good times.  Got a lot of fotos and literally lived off of nothing but wine for a solid 24 hours. 

Here are more than a few fotos from the day and a half spent there.

PIETRO

I don't know where to begin; whether it's his love for graphic design, furry costumes, or his non chalant ability to engross himself in awkward Larry David-esque scenarios- Pietro never ceases to amaze me!

Non stop comedy comes from Pietro, former host of "Metal Mondays" on MTV U nominated KSSU, making un buon amico/roommate.

At his finest moments:


"I got the world on my shoulders, got to hold it up!"


Chomp on This!

In the city. . .

City of Milano!


City of Pisa!

So far that's all I've visited, but there's a couple more I have up my sleeve


This is where I get to skateboard and ride my bike by school.  La dolce vita- no complaints

First Post in a Minute!

It's really been a bit longer, but:  this blog is Back From The Dead- Nah Nah, Nah Nah! (not nearly as funny as it sounds, actually it's not funny at all)

Posted in Pisa

Moonlighting in Milano


It's been a cool minute since I wrote something; or was inspired to write something on this without feeling an absolute sense of defeat due to the photo uploading software.  Obviously, I've been chilling!  A lot happened in a year and a half- mainly schooling, skateboarding, biking, and hiking.  Also moustaches' come and go, but most of that stuff won't see the light of day.

Bottom line:  Io sono in Italia per un ano e voglio scrivere qui.  All while engaging in random acts of shenanigans and debauchery that I know and love.
