L'ONORE, RISPETTO, AFFARI

About Me

I have a friend in Rome who calls me the Ambassador for Italy in the UK. He says I am the most italian person he knows who is not actually italian. I think that this is because when we were talking i was waving my hands about all over the place.I do not have a job at the moment and i prefer it this way!!! I do not have any ambitions except maybe to be a lady of leisure, and a sicilian housewife EDIT: I now have a job actually, a temp job though (i aint stoopid), but it is crap and boring and i'm leaving it soon to try to fulfill my ambitions! NEW EDIT: i'm now living it up in Bella Roma..found a place to live... no job yet, except maybe professional dater... but i think i'm going to get a job as a tour guide so i can stay outside in the sunshine and visit allllll the beautiful monuments (and EVERY monument in Roma is beautiful ;))Oh, now im working as a tourist guide in the Colosseum and Roman Forum! It is the BEST job in the world!

My Interests

watching Italy whoop everyone else in the World Cup. Talking to Italian boys. Eating spaghetti and pizza. Making the De Niro face. Changing my Ts to Ds. Hanging around in the Ferrari Store. Checking out the fit policemen in Milano :p snogging at Monte Mario, riding on the back of vespas and motorbikes!!!!!

I'd like to meet:

Francesco Totti. He is wonderful. And Fabio Cannavaro & Luca Toni, because i fancy them.ohh, how can i fail to mention Robert Deniro?? and he was in Rome one week ago. i didnt see him. im gutted!!!!

Music:

Louis Prima

Movies:

GOODFELLAS IS MY ABSOLUTE FAVOURITE but i also love Bonnie & Clyde, The Godfather (Francesco Alessandrelli IS Micheal Corleone!), Some Like It Hot, La Vita è Bella, El Crimen di Padre Amaro, Dirty Dancng 2 Havana Nights, Romeo 7 Juliet, King of Comedy, Breakfast at Tiffany's, Scent of a Woman 9Frnacesco in the Blue Uniform when he is older),Y Tu Mama Tambien, ohh lots and lots. Gladiator, because it is where i work!

Television:

When Italy play in the World Cup and win, i love it. ALSO i have to add, i saw a telly programme the other night, one of those ones where they try to teach losers how to get dates and it reminded me of a programme i used to LOVE i think it was called Would Like to Meet and I used to really like Streetmate (i always wished Davina would come to Leicester and find me and say ARE YOU SINGLE and help me find a boyfriend) but this new show is crap. they taught the boys really bad techniques for picking up women. It was too PUSHY and AMERICAN and i spent the whole programme thinking 'if any man came up to me and did/said that...' well, i just thought that their techniques were rubbish and Lovely Jeremy from Would Like To Meet was a million times better.
