fnac


My favorite spot had already been taken.
I gave them the evil eye.

mushroom


Angry bartender made this for me.
“Go read your future in your coffee now,” he said.

coach






“How do you get this imminent-end-of-the-world-consciousness look of yours?”
“I wash my face with inevitability twice a day.”

walk


Maybe it's not that bad.
Maybe I still want to move to the UK.
At least I could walk on this path every single day of my life.

hotel


“Nice view, huh?”
“Those lights.”
“So do you still want to move to the UK?”
“I don't know. I'm not so sure now. I am not sure of anything.”
“I see.”
“Hey, am I actually speaking to myself?”
“Yes.”
“Oh.”

airport


Waiting for my coach.
“How do you prefer your coffee, sir?”
“...”
“Black? White? Vampire-flavored?”
“Oh, vampire-flavored, thanks.”
“You're very welcome, sir.”

sangue


And now that empty look of yours.
Did you know they used to fill empty swimming pools with people's empty looks?

filtered


I have come up with this idea of autumn being invented by God so that we could cheerfully mess around with filtered black and white.

Yay! New themes for gmail!
Guess which one I picked?

termini


American Gothic.
This is not the first time I meet famous art people in the underground.
Last week I spotted Vladimir and Estragon from Waiting for Godot, how about that.

Moujab's not so sure about how to make a provola e speck pizza.

giant


I am a life watcher.
I like to silently squeeze people and observe lifedrops dripping down from them and gather in fleeting life puddles. Oh, then I put paper boats in them.

raccordo


I wonder who inoculated me against zombieness.
What's your secret agenda?
Leave a comment!

night


Here's the night, my best friend, who walks with me on my way from the office to the parking lot.
We exchange a few words, and some very meaningful sigh of regret.

wall


Here I am at a dead-end again.
A never-ending sequence of dead-ends.
That's how I would describe my life if someone asked.

mini


These are my mini breakfasts, a coffee macchiato and two fette biscottate while Mum is playing Finally We Have a Map of the Planet on my ipod.
Oh, the cosy joy of a mini breakfast.

porta di roma


“Can we go home please?”
“You asked me to come here.”
“I feel confused.”
“Too many people in here.”
“People are confusing.”
“Yeah.”
“Bring me home.”

termini


That I night I had a dream about Tommy Oshima.
We met I don't remember where and we started to talk.
“Are you into film photography?” he asked.
“Oh yes,” I said, “I've just finished my first roll.”
He nodded.
“Are you into scanning too?” he asked then.
“Oh yes,” I said, “I've bought a cheap Epson scanner on Ebay, but I didn't try it out yet."
He smiled and I knew that that part of my dream was over.

country


Farmer boy for a day, happiness starts flowing again in my soul's veins.
It tickles.

coach


Next to a window in a long distance coach, a young man sat hunched over his ipod.
In a minute or two, the coach would leave and soon become a dark, humming sleep chamber.
That is the moment the young man is waiting for.
He calls it: the perfect isolation.

blender


Throwing all my memories in a blender and whip them and put them back into my mind, that's how I feel every single day when I wake up.

And I created a new group on facebook: Sushi Lovers United To Rule The Universe.

train


It's nice to be there some minutes before your departure time and let yourself carried away by the gentle waves of the endless human flow.


I am alive.


And I still have a goal.

tetris


Everybody needs a goal to strive for.
My goal is to complete the Tetris DS 200 lines marathon by only clearing groups of four rows at once.
Today, I am half way there.

lunch


I thought it would have burnt my thoughts and turn them into metaphysical ash but it didn't work.
I must add more chili peppers next time.
