summer vacation !
My high school graduation present was a trip to Italy! My family was thinking about going to Vancouver instead but I insisted that Italy was cooler. Overall, everyone really loved Italy!!! (Almost) all the food was amazing, 'sides from some bad tourist trap garbage. Huge picture spam ahead!
Chalk art on the road!!
(I've written Romwe so many times I couldn't spell Rome for a bit...)
borghese art gallery
VATICAN
Vatican Museum... possibly the worst experience of the entire trip. Super crowded and definitely would result in many trampled bodies if there was a fire... All those tour groups *shakes fist angrily*. No real pics from there because I was dying from the heat and all the ones I took were mostly blurry from being jostled around.
Sistine Chapel! The only part that was air conditioned, so I stayed in here for two hours...
Assorted berry cheesecake!
Tiramisu *___*
Strawberry&mango + pistachio and hazelnut? I dropped my gelato (on the left) while trying to take pictures on instagram;;;;;
BEST GELATO IN THE WORLD!!! Old Bridge Gelataria :) Fior di latte & hazelnut topped with cream :D
Best gelato again!!! Hazelnut, chocolate hazelnut, fior di latte and cream.
Strawberry, melon, mango + cream!
LOOK AT THIS PUP! Missed Darcy a lot, and this girl was so cute :D
(had GROM gelato twice two!! but the pictures were not that beautiful so they're not here :P)
Went up a cable car to the top of the mountain!
Cutie lil cat named Lucky that came into our airbnb ;____;
Interesting prosecco in a little jug hehe.
Came back to Milan for a day before the flight home!
So instead of going to a restaurant... we ended up going to a bar..... And had small snack foods...
Omg this lady had 5 little toy dogs all at once ;____; SO CUTE
"Flower" gelato!
*~*~*realization that hazelnut and fior di latte is the best gelato combo ever~**~*~
(Martha's Vineyard - if you can't read it OTL)
My sister and I went to volunteer at FOCUS ! We actually went during down time so they didn't have much kitchen work to do. We worked like 1.5 shifts. They had passes to the best beach ever: Lambert's Cove Beach!!! Also visited a nice donut shop called Backdoor Donuts with some great apple fritters!!
Came back to this little pup! Darcy the baby 💕💕 He was mad @ first honestly >___< greeted me sort of happily and then went off to ignore me with an angry expression;; The next few days though, he would come over and butt my arm with his head to get me to pet him;;

rambles;
i enjoy music in general, the smell of old books, the smell of new books, cracking the spine of a new book open, hilarious things, things that make me cry from sheer emotion, sad fics and dramas, cheesy dramas, baggy sweaters, pretty pictures, having that moment of inspiration before writing a story and being satisfied with the outcome, sleeping, running on no sleep, ice cream cake for birthdays, putting up my christmas tree by myself, cool lemonade, rainy cold days, drizzles on your face, action movies, unlimited amounts of piping! hot noodles and dumplings and wontons, minimalistic furniture, laughing at friends who are shorter than me, having deep conversations with strangers, muted colors, going through color pallets at diy stores, choosing yarn and looking through projects, drinking bubble tea, going to froyo stores, that moment when I finally draw something the way I imagined it, baking tasty sweets, cute stuffed plush toys, the smell of the ocean, fruit, good wuxia drams, some anime, the feeling of collapsing on the mattress after a long day, baggy sweaters, ice cream cake for birthdays, the tranquility of night, pretty pictures, cute cellphone charms, the tranquility of night, funny japanese emoticons, when everything is organized, when everything is disorganized, when my clothes match and don’t make me look like an overgrown middle schooler, when I actually don’t expect a plot twist, when I can’t predict what will happen next, overgrown kittens, energetic puppies, and being able to choose when to laugh.
