Europe 10: Rome


Of course our main event in Rome was the colosseum. Where they had guys out here as warriors who I guess also wore snapback hates under their helmets. But it was a fun tourist picture to have for my scrapbook. Which I will be starting soon and will ever youtube or blog about it.


In side was so amazing. I couldn't believe how big it was and how put together it still is. For it to still be standing and not look too crumbled or anything. Again I go back to how I felt in Athens when you just look around and think of the hundreds and thousands of people who have been walking through here. All the people back in ancient Rome who sat and watch gladiators fight. Julius Caesar himself would walk these steps that I was walking on. I may just be a history nerd but you have to realize how amazing that is. 


When we got off our sight seeing bus we had to get pizza. Now this place we went to had amazing and interesting pizzas. We had one with lettuce, roasted tomatoes, and mozzarella cheese. Best pizza I ever had. It had so much flavor and tasted so fresh.


My biggest disappointment was that the Trevi Fountain was being worked on. I may sound like a complete loser saying this. But I wanted my Lizzie McGuire moment throwing the coin in the fountain and having a random lady give me a wheel of cheese because I loved like an Italian popstar. Is that too much to ask for?

We ended the day back at the colosseum and ate at a gay pride restaurant which was so much fun and tasted really good. We shared some grilled chicken and a pizza. While I enjoyed those amazing European iced coffees that I miss so much being back home in Florida. Starbucks has nothing on these coffees.

GeekyCon 2016 Highlights

Meeting Maxwell Glick and Jon Cozart after the Disney sing-a-long after being on stage with them during a Tangled song and being in the front row dancing with them, two very sweet gentleman and I'm so happy I got to meet them and getting some youtube advise from Mr. Cheezypop himself! At the Charity ball I got to meet Ty Simpkins who is from Jurassic World and the Insidious films. He was also very sweet and nice of him to come out of the V.I.P area to interact with his fans and take photos for free and have nice conversations with everyone. That same night after the dance was the Harry Potter and the Cursed Child midnight release party! Potter Puppet Pals did a show, there was real life wizard chess, quid ditch matches, costume contests, being sorted by the sorting hat, and much more to do. It was so much fun and of course getting the book was icing on the cake. Then I got to meet Pemberly Digital! Frankenstein M.D., The Lizzie Bennet Diaries, and my p...

Tea Cup // Outfit Of The Day

I went to a tea room for lunch and this outfit inspired by English rose gardens and those pretty bone china floral tea cups. The back of the dress is open so I work a bralette that is a pastel pink and lace one. It went with the whole English tea room theme of the outfit and for the tea room we went to. The dress is white with pastel pink painted ross on it. I got it last year at Forever 21 and I don't think they sell this dress anymore. I really love the shape and color of the dress. I didn't want any shoes that took away from the dress so I paired this outfit with my nude flats I got at a boutique in California. The purse is by Betsy Johnson and I love wearing this with pastel outfits. It has a black bow and a pink fluff ball on the side. Gold chain and black straps. Its a fake leather with little black hearts. This has been one of my go to purses right now. Make sure you checked my previous blog post about the tea room I went to (The Twisted ...

Words To Eat By: Letrentehuit Brassiare

When we went to the Eiffel Tower we found a traditional french style restaurant called Letrentehuit Brassiare. I can't tell you exactly what street it was on but it was very close to the Eiffel Tower. The service was a little weird and my mom and I couldn't help but laugh at how it was run. But it was a great dining experience. My entree was a traditional cheese crepe with a side salad. It was a french cheese where I'm not sure what kind of crepe they used. It was brown, as you can see in the photo, and it had a more savory taste it. I really wanted a crepe to eat in France and a savory one was a great choice. I also had a glass of french rose wine and of course the bread was a baguette.  Dessert was the best part. Which isn't a surprise being in Paris. I thought it would be best to get a small dessert sampler. Top left was a pistachio mousse., top right was a chocolate mousse, bottom right was a toffee mousse, and the bottom left is clearly a creme bru...
