Italy Diary: Day 1

-
Hey!! So as you can probably guess, I'm on vacation in Italy!! So I've decided to do a 'diary' type thing this week. I'll include various pictures that I took throughout the day as well.

So we arrived yesterday. I packed yesterday morning (that was a bit of a rush. Oops. I don't think I forgot anything...), well actually I guess Sunday. Cause our flight was Sunday evening, then we arrived late afternoon yesterday. We took an orientation tour, just to get our bearings. Here are some pics from that tour: 




Okay so the last pic I find pretty cool, since this statue inspired Michaelangelo in making the statue of David!! 

That evening we went out to dinner at an AMAZING pizza place. Now I'm an extreme food lover, so this was amazing. It was margarita pizza. Well, to be exact, Regima Margarita pizza (same as margarita except with cherry tomatoes and basil added. Then after dinner, we went out to a gelato place. OMG SO GOOD. I have a picture of what I got:


It was passion fruit gelato (on the left) and watermelon gelato (on the right). I've never had watermelon gelato, or ice cream. But honestly it was so so so good, I would TOTALLY recommend it (if you have a good place at least). 

Anyways. Then we came back to where we're staying...and went to bed. 

That was our day yesterday!! I will post about today...later today. Hint: it involves electric bikes, and me freaking out. (We just got back from that). Fun!!

Haha. Anyways we are headed out now. I will try to take lots of pics. Till next time!! Aka later today!!

Hey hey hey! How are you all? So, it's Sunday! Meaning, I'M BACK :)))) Okay, so I thought I'd do a combination post, since I only got one question haha :D So first for the question from  +Paige Petrovsky  : What made you want to start a blog ? THANKS FOR YOUR QUESTION :))))))  I had always kind of wanted to do something like this, before I started. I loved (and still love) writing, and photography. I had just read Zoella's book, Girl Online, and so decided that it would be super cool to start a blog myself!! And here we are, two years later, still lovin' it :)) Alright. Now, I'm super excited to be doing a tag today!!!! The lovely  Sweet Treats  nominated me for the Mystery Bloggers Award!! A massive thank you to them, I'm honoured!! You should definitely go check out their blog cause it is pretty freaking awesome!! :) Also, the creator of this award is  Okoto Enigma , who is also pretty cool!!

  Hello! Long time no see, haha oops. It's been a minute. So today, I wanted to do a mini recap on my fave shows so far since quarantine! I'm sure I'm not alone in watching significantly more netflix since quarantine began lol. However, I wanted to give it a bit of a twist. So without further ado, I give you my quarantine thus far, as told through TV shows. Friends/The Goodwife - March/April/May Okay this is back when quarantine first began. My life consisted of watching Friends, doing schoolwork, procrastinating, doing more schoolwork, watching the Goodwife, and studying for exams. I can't actually remember which one I watched first - I think I watched them together. Luckily by this time there wasn't too much schoolwork left haha. But I watched all of both these shows those 3 months...I was a bit obsessed if you can't tell. But the episodes for friends were only 20ish minutes long! I would 100% recommend both of these shows though, amazing pieces of work.  10/1

Welcome!

Hello, and welcome to my blog! As a writer, I know that finding inspiration for my stories can be a bit tricky at times. When you need ideas, they never seem to come! In fact, it's a bit like automatic flushing toilets. I don't know how it is for everybody else (maybe it's just me!) but the toilets always seem to flush when you DON'T want them to, and at the most inopportune moments. But then, when you need them to flush, they never seem to work! It's a bit like finding inspiration because when you don't need to find it, it just comes to you! But then, when you have writer's block and you NEED that inspiration, it just disappears like it was never there in the first place. This is why I decided to create this blog: Get Up And Out. It's all about trying new things, and perhaps finding some inspiration along the way. Did you know that trying new things challenges your brain, and helps to prevent Alzheimer's? Plus, it can be super fun as well. I'll
