Fumbling Towards Ecstasy

About a boy who randomly posts but is filled with many thoughts, most of them ridiculous, some stupid and the odd one intriguing...

oh god, what have i done

so, hree i sit in my hostel in rome after indulging in a full litre of wine at the restaurant and now i'm subjecting myself to "general banter" of a WHOLE TON OF AMERICANS in the computer room. granted, a good chunk of my friends in oxford are americans, but these are 17 year old americans- some of whom are currently puking in a pot they just puked in, some of whom are rambling about the wonders of germany and others are talking about how they either love canada because the drinking age is low or they hate it because they had difficulty transferring in the airport in montrea; :)

anyway, so be it. i'm sure they're all very nice people... rome is fantastic except fucking confusing. really hard to find your way around. tomorrow we're getting up early to see the coliseum, the pantheon and a whole bunch of other stuff. the next day is pompeii, then we're back for a day seeing the vatican, then it's off to florence to hang with friends....

anyway, apart from falling down an escalator, spilling coffee all over myself and dropping random articles of luggage- i've done ok for travelling. miss you all and i'll check in soon
