------23RD NOVEMBER------
landed in rome with my mum, uncle, auntie.
took a skytrain to the arrival area.
there, my aunt n uncle was already waiting for us.
they're italians, were there to pick us up.
an hour later, my usa auntie n 2cousins came.
then we went to a hotel, checked in.
went for lunch after that.
i ate lasagne. it was nice but abit too cheesy.
got sick of it after a few mouths.


after lunch we went to the colosseum.
took many pictures there. n one of them was like a postcard shot. lol.
after that went to a place called spanish steps for shopping and dinner.
there were couples kissing everywhere man.
it was 9pm. but i was already ko-ed as 9pm in italy means 4am in singapore.
was suffering from jetlag.
got pissed off when my camera died on me.
back to the hotel next. bathed. ko-ed instantly.


------24TH NOVEMBER------
had an awesome breakfast at the hotel today.
totally awesome man the egg was like from macs big breakfast.


then went sightseeing. abit boring though. walk here walk there bought nothing forgot what i saw. lol.


then went for lunch. went to this chinese restaurant.
food wasnt really nice.
the restaurant's bgm was guzheng melody.
dont think too much of that ah. lol.
n i ate popiah.
dont bother finding out what that means.

during lunch, started to rain heavily.
umbrellas were everywhere.


continued sightseeing.
took many pics.

then went for dinner.
had a great dinner at a restaurant near d hotel.
best meal so far.
drank wine there.
my mum took one glass n she got drunk =.= lol.


back at the hotel lobby, had a supposed-to-be-a-surprise birthday celebration for me.

but still, was very appreciative lah.

then went up to sleep as it was already 12plusplus.


------25TH NOVEMBER------
same awesome breakfast this morning. then took a bus to vatican city.
scenery there was awesome.
the buildings and surroundings were simply magnificent man.
had super expensive lunch there.
100euros for some stuffs. not for me only of course.
but still totally not worth it.


walked around after lunch, then it suddenly became damn boring.
i came to this realization, that apart from the nice buildings there to see, n apart from taking pictures, there was nothing else to do man seriously.


got out of vatican city hours later. [FINALLY MAN GOD DAMNIT]
bought this gatorade drink. 500ml. 3.50euros = 7singapore dollars.
wtf man so bloody expensive.


headed to spanish steps for shopping after that.
