if there's one place i wanna go right now my first choice would be Venice! altho it's not as vibrant and magnificent a city as it used to be a long time ago, im very sure walkin in her streets and imagining what it once was is thrilling enough! like their months of Carnival before the Lent and all the women in gliterri masks with pearls and jewels sewn on them and the men mysteriously magnificent behind their white bauta masks!! i jus read THE VENETIAN MASK and it just made me wanna go there all the more!! oh gosh and the story's bout these two girls from an orphanage called the Pieta that was famous for its choir. and i was wondering if this orphanage really existed so i came online to do a little searching and GOSH IT REALLY EXISTS!!! how exciting! and there was a big front picture of the orphanage/church and it looked SO MUCH SO MUCH SO MUCH like how i'd pictured it when i was reading! i think the story's obviously not a true one but i'm very sure at least one of the Pieta girls once experienced what i'd read.. :) i look at the picture and i see Marietta and Elena's life in there as two of the most splendid singers and all the adventures of their lives! the orphanage is still there today and I WANT TO GO SEE IT!
how i wish i could live a life like theirs! perhaps jus for a while haha. of cos i dont wanan be an orphan but i jus want something out of the ordinary! their lives, what they do everyday, what they encounter, their experiences, the people, the place, the time.. it's all so beautiful!there's as much mystery and depth and darkness in their world as colour and music.. and it feels like water flowing and swirling in the sea away from the port. i picture mine as water flowing in a storm drain. u get the idea! oh man! that is what books are for i guess.. u get a little of all worlds! tho it only lasts for a few hours.
