Just another part of my summer 08 holiday, as the closing part of my summer holiday I went to Napoli, I visited Pompeii and city of Napoli.
I didn’t really enjoy Pompeii, it was dusty and hot and they didn’t put any information on each site, so I followed some tour guide and overheard what did they say. I knew that it’s the best preserved roman ancient city, and I admire Italian to be able to do that, but I’m little bit dissapointed that we can’t get any free information.
In the next day I was strolling down the city, despite of the fact Napoli has terrible reputation as mafia city, the city is surprisingly fun and safe, even though Rizky has tendency holding and checking his bag more caution than before. The city has 3 big fortress as their defense to Adriatic Sea, it also has a big park that shows us the dramatic view of Naples coast, and the public transportation is very well managed, even though I believe they used chaos theory to make the subway map, everything was nice there!even the pizza was nice!I feel like walking through the nastiest city in Italy that already changed into a good boy
Yesterday,
My friend remind me that I should update my blog, so here it is I update my blog.
Last we met friend of a friend, she’s ms.T friend and studied in Korea, it’s been a while since I talked with real Indonesian girl, that girl who took international law as her study is amazing she can express her feeling she can describe about her department, and really I can’t say anything when she told me that she was really upset with her friend because they are being in a group and she really felt that she’s being outside the group.Isn’t she just amazing? I mean I never tell the story that if it’s a group I’m always be alone, because I thought it’s normal.
To be honest sister, I’m always feel that I’m outside the group, never be accepted everywhere, I have to admit that I do really feel lonely in this world and sometimes it got me struck and I feel can’t do anything, and I’m fighting against that feeling, or exactly I don’t know whether I should fight it or accept the feeling as part of me. God, what did I wrote?
Ms.T’s friend thanks for making me realize about the value of friendship, living in Europe makes me want to forget about that, but for now can I just keep this feeling inside?can I just live inhumanly, torturing my heart with acting pragmatism to my surround environment, well I guess until I finish my study, just let me learn from the world about the real world.
Hey, this blog makes me think, why am I writing such a thing that made me sad?Just cheer up, rise your head up high, because you never know perhaps this day the world is being nice to you.
After my emotional separation with Mei I continued my trip to Florence with Rizky, only the two of us I could predict that there’ll be lots of drama if we walked together well it was true, living with people with somehow almost opposite of your personality could somehow make you wish to blow your head. But in the end I think survived, although sometimes during our trip I feel like I wanted to raise my hand and show him the white flag, but then I survived livin with him, I survived ‘pegel planet’!
My journey to Florence starts with regretting why did I took an expensive train from Rome, I have to pay €20 just for 2 hours ride that’s such a pain even though we got an AC train and clean toilet and also luxurious seat oh man.. I still regret it
When we arrived in firenze station (the station was very old reminds me of Bandung station) it’s a day time so we went to the ticket service to buy the 3 days ticket (€11 it’s quite expensive) and straight to the hostel put some stuff and took another train to pisa, the city of famous leaning tower, after whole my life I saw the picture on the dictionary now I can feel it by myself, but I didn’t enter the building, I didn’t enter any building because we have to pay ticket if we wanted to enter the building. For me personally to see pisa’s leaning tower up close and personal and saw all the attempt to make to tower not collapsed really touched my heart.
Anyway, the hostel was superb, it was nearby bus stop and in only both of us stayed in such a big room (the room was made designed for 10 ppl) and the bath room is better but they didn’t turn on the light, we got breakfast it’s not very good breakfast but we could take as many as we could eat, so I did eat a lot in the morning and off course also during lunch and dinner hehehhehe
On second day, we spent all the day by strolling around the city started from the fake David’s statue and end up with real david’s statue, d’all academia was a very astonishing place, no doubt it’s one of the most beautiful art gallery that I ever see, personally I prefer d’all academia than Uffizi Gallery, Uffizi is more crowded and really huge, I didn’t have enough time to enjoy it and furthermore if the security saw us open our camera they’ll say ‘No picture please..’ really funny!
I have to say that along my trip in Italy florence is the most beautiful city, like people said Florence the capital city of reinassance where we could find thousands statue, thousands paintings and also nevertheless reinassance building, and yes every building has its own history they have remarkably architecture and engineering history not to mention the building also decor by famous artist, yeah it’s a wonderful city I’d like to go there again
