Someone please adopt my 'to-do' list...

It's not all shit! There are some nice things there like: shopping in a trendy department store in Milan!

Ever get times when there's just too much to do?

And to top it (bad choice of words) I may have to take someone in for a few days/weeks while their family straightens itself out. confused That means I need to...

Do you ever start the day with good intentions?

My to do list looked something like:

- conduct research
- write 2/3 articles
- record a podcast
- tidy


I've done nothing of note! I heard something (family news) that's just knocked me sideways and now I have no one (in the family) to talk to about it as I can't seem to contact any...

Actually today is the Rose Parade here in Pasadena. Traditionally, I try not to do anything
roxiebeee:
There can be, a it is normally on new years morning... But I don't do anything mostly cause us impossible to get around the city.

There are so many Louis Vuitton handbags in Milan. Now some of them are real, there are some very good LV stores here - but there are so many. Like I can walk out and I will see at least one or two on my street any hour of the day.

Admittedly I live in a good neighbourhood but then anywhere you go in Milan...

RIP HolyShow. Conchubhair is here. I really feel that I needed a change. New country, new name. (Still the same old me though!) Although a lot of things have changed.

I've been very fortunate in Italy so far. I am living in such a great area, it's one of the best parts of central Milan, surrounded by amazing shops, bars, restaurants. My work is interesting...

Well, tomorrow I leave this Island behind and head for pastures new. I feel a mix of excitement and trepidation. I'm hoping to change certain parts of my life for the better and hoping the best parts remain. Let's see what the future holds.

Saying goodbye to friends was great fun, leaving family and seeing tears in their eyes will be hard frown

The house is packed up on and the way to Milano via Hamburg. My house is just an empty shell now, new tenants move in on Monday, however, I'll be living out of a suitcase for two weeks now till I get my apartment set up in Milano. I feel like a proper student again!
kyoko:
Oh cool stuffs =) I am such a bad innipki that I think I did nothing that weekend that I can remember. tongue

Have a good weekend yourself and enjoy living out of your suitcase and being a proper student in Milano! smile

One day until the international shippers come to pack up my life and move it to Milan!

I don't feel ready - at all! However, I was told I have to let them pack or it won't be covered by the insurance. The insurance itself was an odd thing...I had to go around and put a value on everything (from antiques to socks!)



The rhythm...

Yeah I wouldn't expect either that a rugby player was flexible. tongue Flexy comes pretty fast when you train for it often. I take flex classes at this combat gym and it surprised me that most of the students are incredibly stiff. I always thought that everyone in that kind of sports trained well for their flexibility. But they just seem to think about getting big muscles. I don't get that, not that muscle tone is bad but i'm more fascinated with the crazy things that you can train your body to do smile

That's cool your friend played with him. I never heard of him before until I heard that song recently. I would love some recomendations if you find any.

Moving to Milan and having other people pack for you? I'd be so uncomfortable with that. (other people with my things) What you going to do there?
kyoko:
What are you going to study and teach if I may ask? smile I guess it's nice having the movers pack everything. I really hate packing and moving but it'd still be weird having other people do it for me tongue
Maybe I don't understand but did you have Icelandic movers to that weren't efficient?

That band is alright but just a little bit monotone for me, but nice though and relaxing.smile But I am pretty hard to please these days from exhaustion I guess. skull

I'm a morning person. I love the dew on the grass as I go for a walk, the way the fingers of the cold air scratch at my face, I think it's worth keeping my beard. I admire the perfectly presented retired man in his suit, out and about at 6.30 for no other reason than to get the paper (and because he still is...

Haha! I was looking at it last night and I thought... hang on, I have a picture where I'm doing the same silly smile. smile

Everyone says she looks like me so you know... I take it as a compliment because she's beautiful. wink

And nah... I was determined that I wanted it, but I was looking a couple nights ago and the HTC's just looked so much better. tongue I'm waiting for it to be delivered as I speak. smile Hopefully it will come after the next 20 minutes or so though because my mum will be home then and I won't have to answer the door because I look TERRIBLE! hahaha.
kyoko:
I wish I was a morning person. It seems so nice. But I am just the opposite.

With the splits, it did kinda hurt holding it for so long while getting the photo taken but I'm working on it tongue Kickboxing people are flexy?! I did not know! And kudos for you for having been a flexy guy! smile

I am obsessed with that song these days hehe tongue Disappointed I couldn't find another song by Tom Vek that I liked as much as this one. I am so sick of my music and I'm not finding stuff lately that I really really like.
