Oh and...

Sacha Baron Cohen ruined a catwalk and Milan fashion week, he jumped on half way through the "Agata Luiz della Prada" show and had to be dragged off.
He also got backstage at the "iceburg" show and started jumping on all the rails of clothes.. haha, the Dsquared2 security stopped him before he got to get to them..

so funny though.

It's all for his new film called "Bruno: Delicious journeys through America for the purpose of making metrosexual male" which he filmed something for in front of the Duomo, and I was there, so I could be in the background when his films airs.

Watch.This.Space.
Sunday, I stayed in, dosed up and did some work. Borrrrring!

Monday, I went to work, finished all my articles then went to Jasons place and just hung out, then me and giles went to the duomo, and met Lisa and Erika, then we went to a sushi bar for apertivo, joined afterwards by Jason.. It was soo nice, i love that sushi bar.. love it. and then we went to a quiant hidden away lounge, it was beautiful place, covered in trees and it was just beautiful...

this blog was written like a child... and then... and then.... then... and then.... i do apologise.

Home soon... oh my godddddd

Catwalk at fashion week

After shocking I had like 2 hours sleep and had to get up and go to a fashion show, I am not complaining down you worry. The fashion show was that of a girl called Kira plastinina, she is FIFTEEN years old and is like minted from all this desgining, has won all these awards and has stores in the us and russia etc.. SHE IS 15, ive achieved nothing in comparison.. pictures of the show will be uploaded soon, i just cant find anywhere to upload pictures at the moment, they are all too big or something.

chilled with jason, giles and sophie afterwards then went to bed at half 8, because i was tired and im ill, i have a ear infection. =(

(feel sorry for me)

Weekend (26th)

Friday, in the night I went to apertivio with the global experience lot, there were 3 new girls so we went along to welcome them to Italy or something like that, I just went along for my complimentary free drink! haha, which was of course a mojito. We got on quite well, so afterwards we went home, got changed then went out to a club, called "shocking", I thought it was quite small, but it was good all the same, we asked for sambucca shots and they were like MASSIVE, you had to down and gulp, not shoot it back.. i repeat down and GULP.. Lisa and Samantha asked for water afterwards it was so much, haha, but i didnt.. because i rullllleeee... haha, Ekaterina and Funny joined us a bit later but I didnt see them, and I got Begga, Helga and Natosha in because i knew the guy, but they were really drunk so didnt stay long. went to a pizza place afterwards, and giles told someone he looked like "rocky" the film, and the guy WHO DID LOOK THE SPITTING IMAGE OF HIM,was not impressed and his friend had to drag him away before he went rocky on giles assssss...

Welcome to Milan Lisa, Erica and Samantha.

JOSSI CAME TO MILAN

wooohooo.
Went to the airport to collect her, and then as soon as we got to the apartment we had to quickley get changed to out, Ekaterina, Funny, Jason, Giles and Sophie all came to mine to pre drink then we caught taxis to karma where we met Ricardo and Babara. Had such a good night, the pictures really do talk to for themselves.. and we got in at 8in the morning.
Jossi and I didnt really do much sunday, in the day.. hahaha, fat little retards in the bed.. then in the night we went for coffee and drinks at duomo and castello with Jason and Giles. So a quiet but nice one.
Monday we went shopping, and a coffee at navigli.. before getting ready to go to old fashioned. Ekaterina, Funny, Jason, Giles, Begga and Helga and me and Jossi of course, all went.. but Begga and Helga didnt actually go in at the end, so i dont know what has happened to them, because i havnt heard from them since. haha.
anyway, we had a really good night, although Jason and Giles started a fight and got kicked out, so we felt obliged to leave with them. so the night ended earlier than expected.. but still I think we had a good time, swank dancing and what not. Do you know what actually, i coudlnt fit all the quotes into one blog and you lot just wouldnt understaaand, so ima keep the jokes for me and swanky mcswank herself for when i return to Southampton!
Tuesday, we went to the roof of duomo, and we walked it this time. holy christ I.am.unfit. stayed there for a while, then went to the lounge at the top of la rhinascente for coffee and we just stuck out like sore thumbs, we looked like tramps up against some people, and jossi got given a spoon with her orange juice so didnt know what to do with it, i took a bite out of the snacks and thought it was so disgusting that i had to down water and hide it in a tissue, because i didnt want to leave it have open on the side of the plate.... good god, funny times.
Then took jossi to the airport via malpensa... so thats another guest been and gone.. god daaaam.

but so much fun all the same!

Ekaterina moves out!

As she is staying in Milan for 3 years she needed to find a proper apartment to stay in, as this one is only through the language school, so now shes going. On her last night we stayed in watching americas next top model, stuffing our faces and playing around on photobooth, while drinking tea.. haha, just the stuff we used to do really, ended as we started etc.
Helped her move in, her place is okay, and not that far away so we can hang out at least. haha.

More than likely a future in Milan..

we went out for tea and biscuits with roberto and paulo (roberto is the important man in milan) anyway, there is abig party in a castel coming up soon and he asked me to co-ordinate it! and that he can get me endless credit for all these up and coming fashion shows, well endless.. so fashion shows for the rest of my life. lol.

only one month left in Milan.. its gone SO fast

Dirty Korean

Has moved in, and the food she has brought with her FROM KOREA is just disgusting and its all over the house, packed in the fridge and freezer, lots more in her room, in buckets in the kitchen, and some of it is like little fish.. urgh.

and i got home one day and it was on my shelf.. ON MY FOOD.. i flipped.. we now havnt spoken for 3 weeks.. LOL.

Future in Milan?

Today was an open day at the design universtiy IED, so I went along with Ekaterina, because she is studying there anyway, she starts soon, but she wanted to see what the campus was like.

Which by the way is the most tranquil place EVER, the front bit is this big garden with nice chairs and gazeebos (spelling?) and a pond with a bridge going over it, and lots more. Anyway, after looking around for a bit, I came across a course called:

"Fashion communication"

I am more than impressed by it, and im thinking of maybe mastering in it after i get my degree in southampton.. Thats only if i get a job to fund it lol, but still ... so I hopefully will return to Milan. =)

Private roof terrace party

Paulo hosted this party, which was white theme, so i struggled to find something to wear, so of course i had to raid ekaterias wardrobe again.. any excuse.

Party was nice, met lots of important people, that promise lots of things, but lets see how that actually pans out. Roberto told me how to get a press pass for milan fashion week.

And then because all the metros were closed, and the taxis were too expensive, he took ekaterina and I home, in his posh expensive car.. good way to end the night i thought!

I would just like to point out ...

That EasyJet can't fly a plane straight!

The Family visit Milan

Mum and Katie came to visit for a few days, they stayed in a hotel just down the road so it was easy to just pop down and see them. so after work on the thursday I went to their hotel and met up with them for a bit, but didnt stay long as I had work the next day. After work on the friday I met them outside duomo and we went for lunch, then went home, got ready to go out again. Took them to Navigli (canals) and we had a really nice dinner together.
Saturday we went to the duomo, inside and to the roof. Ive been waiting for them to come before I did it too, so it was new for me. Ahhh its so pretty! So hot when we got to the top of the duomo too..

p.s glad we caught the elevator up there. lol.

We caught the tram to San Siro too, its the weirdest football stadium ive ever seen, like a big industrial building. but anyway...

in the night we went to center to have a meal and then went and took a long walk around castello and parc sempione.

Glad they came to visit, I had a really nice time with them =)
