the playlist sabrina is playing only goes to further prove that she is my gemella.

okay, im going to publish this junkyard of a first draft which ordinarily wouldnt see the light of day. why? just on the off chance you guys prefer to get the gist of what im saying rather than a well set, organised and grammared piece of writing (which i probably dont offer half the time anyway).

hey guess what, im in italy! go ahead, put on a foot-a-scray accent and say it aloud with passion- ITAALIAAA!! i love italy. there is hot boys, loving family, hilarious friends, gorgeous villages and to top it all off, silvio berlusconi is no longer prime minister! when i got to sabrinas house i instinctively relaxed and felt at home. the main reason i know i felt comfortable and relaxed is because i now have post travelling cold and i havent finished travelling yet!
so im going to talk about Ulysse for a little bit. for those of you who dont know him, and i sincerely hope that there is at least some people who read this who arent my dear family and friends. Ulysse is my little host brother, when i first came to italy he was three years old and we had a rather explosive relationship. he would yell at me in incomprehensible italian so i would yell at him in english. he would sword fight my legs and i would take his rightfully deserved youngest atention. our relationship was basically summed up when when mamma yelled "ulysse! smetti la!" i felt smug until she followed it up with "Cel! anche tu smetti la!" thats right, i got yelled at the same as the three year old stnading next to me.
there was only two things that united us without any debate. pirates of the carribean and harry potter. i dont know if you are familiar with three year olds, but some of tyem like to watch a film and then when it is over, watch it again straight away. so we would get to the end of the harry potter "con la spada" (with the sword)(the second one)  and he would say ANCORA! (AGAIN!)  i would heartily agree and start it all over again until eventually mamma would crack and yell "basta! watch another film!" which is when we would switch to pirates of the carribean ("con la spada!")
now that im coming back and ullysse is six i am interested to see if ulysse would remember me  an if he would like me. first thing he did when i got there was show me his complete collection of the harry potter movies.
 we are going to get along very well..
