Day 4: Familiarity Breeds Contentment

Today was the beggining of the never-ending search to find an adapter so that my American laptop could fit into the European plugs that surge at about 240 V that will blow my little "lappie" to smithereans....

So i left the univerisity a little early in search of an adpater/converter so i went back to via XX settembre, to look for an electronic store, and hit up fnac , yes that is a store. they didnt have it :( long story short i ended up empty handed, but i had a lot of sight-seeing. i just started aimlessly rooming the cobble-stone streets, and meandered my way on the bus. you try figuring the signage out...?????



but then a bright light hit my eye, it shone bright red, in a way that only an old-friend could. then i stood, gazing at the one familiar sight i had seen in the past four days...and H&M. of course i went in just because i could. hehe.

so on my trip i saw christopher columbus' house (apparently he is from genoa, who knew???), i saw mad old buildings, and some fountainy things.



nah this aint a statue, this is some white dude (painted white, i'm not being obscene) that looks like a statue. i've seen better in 34th street train station. and when you give him change he bows :/
this is christopher's house (yeah we on a first name basis now)...
...and i saw our italian word of the day that means something totally different in english: this word is soo familiar i will just let the picture speak for itself. hehe.
yes you eyes do not decieve you indeed, the word f-ck, is there is all its glory and splendor. after a sight like that i was satisfied and retired to my room where i did a much needed cleaning, of the match-box called my dorm room, all with the aid of AJAX (yeah they got that too!!)

peep the video of the room...
