Pain of using a public computer

This one is in Korean or Japanese or some character similar to Chinese. My blog website is in that language.. Lucky for me I memorized things sometimes. The keyboard appear to be European but is actually American. Quite a pain.

Marco my friend from Milan came last weekend and we went to Assisi for a festival, the Medieval time festival, quite fun, I really like the costumes and all but there were just too many people. The next day we stayed in Perugia for the Parchi in Festa, where you get to try cheese, wine and prosciutto (ham) for free. See these items are too expensive to buy and then try, so when it is free, its cool. I can-t find a lot of symbols so pardon my typing.

I attempted nasi lemak on Friday but rice cooked with coconut milk without pandan leaves is as good as normal rice. bleh.... Then Marco cooked dinner on Saturday, yummmyyyyy pasta.. slurrrppp...

I went to Questura (Police HQ) today to get my fingerprinting done, of course I thought of going in the afternoon but later this morning I found out that they close at 1, so when I got there like 10am, they told me to come on Monday morning.. like 8am... yea whatever... I do feel like not getting it done at all... After all by the time I get my Permesso Di Soggiorno, I will be packing my bags to go home.

Which reminds me I need to purchase my Eric Clapton ticket later today. My classmate told me Santana on 18th July is going to be free but neah, it was stale news. The ministry still hasn-t settle my allowance yet and honestly, if they don-t give me anything by the 1st of June, I don-t have anymore $$ to stay on. I know I shouldn-t buy Eric-s concert ticket now but this is one risk I am willing to take. Worse come to worse maybe I could sell my butt in June.

Starting to sound ridiculous, here I am on scholarship and all I received so far was an air ticket. Which means, the scholarship isn-t for the poor, cause you better have 2000 Euro prepared to be spent here because they pay rather late. What would be really funny is if they pay me the whole amount after I-m done. hahaha

Couple of days ago I started looking at the calendar and realise I have very little weekends and many places to visit. Basically quite screwed but I think I will manage... Done quite a bit of Umbria, now gotta move on to Tuscany but I was told Cortona isn-t worth my time, maybe Bologna... But that-s not exactly near... For some reason I seem to be putting off Rome... Kept telling myself maybe later...

I watched Legend of 1900 yesterday in Italian. I watched the English version couple of years ago and I was bored by it, but this time it was so good. Even though I was watching from the floor. I must get the DVD, it-s so good. It-s called Leggenda della Pianista Sul-Oceana.. Or something like that...
*
I-ve begin to realise that there-s more people my age around here than I thought.. Girls... The one important factor among these people is to get a boyfriend. As usual I don-t know how to respond. I mean yea maybe Italy is a great place if you wanna have fun and flings but I-ve seen people getting all emotional and depress because they are single.. Errr... Looks like it-s an international problem.... Uhh maybe this is when it-s good to be easily contented...

More festivals in Umbria next week, so... will be busy busy... just by living...
