Went to the Colosseo today and i realized something...no matter what country i am in there are always people selling stuff on the street. China was the most annoying, but they all have this philosophy, "If i keep following the white person and annoy the hell out of them, they will eventually buy my shit." Well, i have perfected the art of ignoring them and i am proud. Also, i have learned that the street jewelry here is fabulous and i wish we had more creative souls that are as friendly as the ones here, met a man named Antonio and bought some of his jewelry, he proceeded to tell me his story and i learned that he had 4 sisters and he is trying to start a business. His work is amazing and with wire. I have respect for people like this. He even gave me and kristina some free things. We need more Antonios in the world. People who dont have much to give, but give anyways.
After seeing the art at the Vatican i was thinking, holy cow. And thats just it. The famous artist Michael Angelo didn't even want to paint the ceiling of the chapel. He was like hell no and the Pope said if he didnt he would go to war with Florence. Well Michael Angelo was pissed and so he did, and once he finished the pope loved it but some dumb ass cardinal didn't and so therefore Michael Angelo proceeded to paint this "ass" on the chapel. IN hell... on the final judgment picture with donkey ears and a snake biting his balls. Moral of the story: Michael Angelo was a BAD ASS :)
