November 27th 2008 ˜ 328/366
I went together with Libo to see the Picasso exhibit (other link here), sponsored by the company I work for.
As always the guided tour was followed by a wonderful buffet.
It was really cold and windy and the buffet on the terrace wasn't really enjoyable.... so we quickly ate our food, I took a few pics of the wonderful view (yup, the Colosseum...) and then we headed home.

thanks!
The movie (Italian, of course...) is called "Ti Stramo" (Sorry, Italian site..). It's a spoof.. a parody of all those teen love/drama movies...

Hahah well, new space is kind of ironic seeing as i'll be moving in to a much smaller room...
And sadly i am very much used to moves....
We've moved serveral times... and not just within the same touwn or country... often mioving from one CONTINENT to another!

We're down to day 2 out of 3 in our move... They're doing bedrooms today, and tomorrow they'll be taking the beds.
So apparently we'll be sleeping in the new house as of tomorrow night.
Yikes!
Wanna laugh? I've only see the house, (and my room) once.... ONCE! Can you imagine?

Congratulations on the move. I know it's hard. It's just amazing to me how much stuff we have... and we didn't live in a big house!

Rain again? You had a very wet winter last year too didn't you? Enough already! Settled into the new digs? Get a nice snuggly and warm blanket or throw and curl up in it and admire the new space. Smaller = more intimate. Smaller = less room to collect crap. Only THE most important things should be kept; it will be that much easier when you move out with *ahem* someone, or just into your very own space. And wireless in your room?!? You're all set girly girl. Sounds ideal. Thanks again for your encouragement. (((hugs))))

!!! you get all new furniture??? Oh dear, my envy is huge! I can't wait to see what you choose and how you arrange it. i often think smaller spaces are charming, opportunities for little nooks and inspiration for being creative with organization. I know, how lame, but organization is one of my fave things. An ensuite is bliss and a pretty nifty perk for taking the smaller bedroom, I agree!

I decided to tackle the first of my Ikea purchases.
The set of drawers.
I love Ikea stuff. Their designs are very simple, modern and just how I like them.
The DIY part of it all is rather fun, and the instructions easy.... but damn, I had no idea the drawers would be so time-consuming to put together...
4 hours, several breaks, and 1 back ache later... we had my chest of drawers!
Yay!!

How does it look? I think it's cosy..

Is that a park between your building and the buildings you see from your window? Nice. Also, that green doesn't look too bright in the pics -- if you bring in chocolate brown details, it could be very relaxing....

I'm not sure exactly what that green strip is.... but I've seen people walk their dogs along there...
It might just be a walk-way... I have yet to figure out where it is.. how to get there.

I like this shade too... and so far my furniture is all very light shades of tan...

Well... where you see the bes now, I plan to put one of those tall beds (kind of like a bunk bed, but without the bottom bed). This will allow me to crate space for my desk, which has been ordered and should be delivered wirthin the next week or so...
So there won't really be much free wall space!

Your room is shaping up quite nicely. I think that your solution of the tall bed with the space underneath is great.

December 12th 2008 ˜ I dunno what day it is anymore/366
It's been an awful week... the weather has been dreadful and it has rained non stop the entire week.
This has caused some significant problems with traffic, flooding and casualties.
We rarely have so much rain here in Rome and no need to say, we're rather unprepared for it.
The Tiber river was close to flooding above the levels of the river banks, causing serious damage.
We were let out early from work, in order to allow us to get home, before most roads and bridges were blocked off from traffic.
Luckily I managed to get home ok, considering I was with my scooter, but then again I am lucky to live fairy close to work.
On my way home I did want to stop off and take some pictures of the Tiber, but it really wasn't a good idea to stop in the middle of traffic and rain, not to mention that I had none of my two cameras on me.
Let's hope the week end reserves some dryer weather.
The picture above is for the mini challenge... revealing my true self. Can't get more real and exposed than that...
It's probably my first and last....
