I don't usually hope for anything, much in the same way I avoid promising anything. I'm afraid of disappointment and of disappointing others. So I don't take any chances, and I pretty much avoid anything that might set anyone up for disappointment. However, when I decided to go on my first vacation, I think I harboured a small seed of hope.My life is devoid of meaning, simply due to how I jghttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13520737717787874594noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-16845633.post-20076613016104092822009-06-29T22:51:00.002+02:002009-06-29T22:52:23.342+02:00Portable Playstation IDJust thought I'd post this somewhere.

We were at the Vatican today.
One is called "Crucifixion", the other "Martin Luther King Jr." I saw one first and thought it was cool, then I saw the other and thought it was art.
I found the artefacts more fascinating than the art. Everyone's seen the frescos and paintings etc, but I haven't seen any photos of this stuff. I wasn't even sure what half of it was.

A place called Goose, close to our hotel. It has pretty great pizzas. I had a diavolo.
This is the cheap Chinese restaurant next to the Termini. I have no idea what it's called.
McDonald's near Scala di Spagna. The entrance was almost invisible; they probably weren't allowed to use their usual garish yellow and red.

This photo illustrates two things: How happy I am to be in Rome, and how much I can see of it. I can barely keep my eyes open, sometimes I have to sit down and close them for a while just so I won't go blind. The evenings are bearable though, I guess I'll just sleep all day and not go to any tourist attractions.

Something happened this Monday. It began as a normal day, just lounging about playing inFamous.
Suddenly we were whisked away by an aeroplane. This was my first flight. I was pretty nervous when it was time for take off, but I focused on the engines and chewing my gum, and anxiousness luckily turned into fascination.
Our intrepid adventurers.

Check out my seralized story Charlie Shortchanged, which takes place in White Wolf's World of Darkness, specifically Changeling. I was reading the Changeling rulebook and got inspiration for a role-playing adventure, but since I don't have anyone to play with, I decided to play it solo and write it down.

Last week, my brother, his gf and I were at the cherry blossom festival (hanami) at Kungsträdgården. Thought I'd post some photos of Swedish cherry blossoms, but it looks like someone beat me to it.
The celebration started off with a taiko drum performance. It felt rather anachronistic seeing this centuries old artform being performed in the middle of a city.
Look at them go!

The weather was great, the tour guide informative, and the castle itself was pretty neat.
