Carnevale di Venezia 2012

Here is a little photo post of this years carnival. The weather wasn't as fantastic as last year (it was snowing!) but that was probably good as there also weren't as many people around this time.

This is where I stayed; Hotel ai Mori d'Oriente

At Piazza San Marco there was a wine fountain.
Looks quite Buffy to me..

There were masked people...

.

...the necessary "street view"...

And then, as we were about to leave, we saw this old monster!
Pretty cool.

Stay tuned...

I'm thinking of putting together a little post about stuff to see and do in Rome. So far this is just an idea, but if my lessons keep getting cancelled, who knows I might actually get it done!

My inner Bridget

Yeah, it's been a while since I've posted anything. I should say nothing has happened and there has been nothing to report, but it's not entirely true. The problem is, I don't really have any inspiration for writing about the stuff now.

Instead, I'm gonna tell you how today I have channelled my inner Bridget Jones.

I was just innocently watching America's Got Talent videos on Youtube (oh, they are so much better than the talented people I've seen on the Finnish version!) but then this Dolce&Gabbana Sport perfume ad comes on. You can see what I'm talking about here. Hello!
It's a sunny day outside, the spring has arrived, and here I am, in bed, in my long sleeved pyjama (that is to say it's not exactly the prettiest one I own) and I'm thinking: "I'd like some of that!".

Yeah right.

Then I realise that my hair is a mess, I have yesterday's mascara on my cheeks and my tummy is rumbling like I haven't eaten for a year. Supermarket own brand rice cereal for breakfast with full fat milk.

I love my life.
