And fuck

Italians are heaps racist?? Or sards at least... Or some sards. Cause the star player of italy tonight was a black guy, and all over facebook there's posts like

'sarai anche un coglione nero ma stanotte hai fatto sogni!'

Which means 'you may be a black fucker [lit. testicle] but tonight you made dreams happen!'

Then the comment is like, 'bro you're a racist??' and the guy defends himself like, 'no I was just unhappy there's a black guy on the national team but that's ok because he won for us tonight!'

Pics related but in Italian obv
Also you should look up his second goal on youtube or something, he just runs around, takes his shirt off and flexes

FORZA ITALIA!!!!!!

Holy shittt soccer is a completely different fucking thing here!! Fuck I stayed with the guys at the oratory to watch it and then they took me to do a giro around the town cause Italy won and shit! Everyone, I mean everyone, was in the streets and in cars waving Italian flags errywhere and driving around cheering each other! Holy shit that one player who scored both goals is good! And Italy also has a god tier goal keeper you know that? Smaz out!

Ps sorry hogg about Germany losing unless you don't follow eurosoccer... I don't except for this match and the next one cause they are kind of big things here

Which one to buy?

Yo guys! Which one do I buy (this is mainly for Smaz, but if anyone else has an opinion then make it)?Pokemon Black or White? I don't really know anything about them but I want a new Pokemon game.

So yeah, tell me please which one is better.

my fortune cookie said that i can talk my way out of almost anything. that aint even a fortune. also, i did a drawing. and blogger isnt letting me make a post title >.>

Someone thought it was a good idea to go hiking.

It wasn't.

We walked uphill for three hours. Like there was cool shit with a glacier and mountain stream and stuff for the last hour but the first two were like in trees, german forest steep and rocky path. I am fucking exhausted.
Pictures were cool but I will post them later.

EDIT: Also, who remembers this? Just cause it came up in the convo when I was talking to Ru

Japan-yo jon read dis foo'

Man, Japan has really become my second life. But, i really dont want to stop living overseas in just japan- i really want to go to Peru and Morocco for some reason. Ive been told heaps of times that i just look like someone that knows lots of languages- and truth is i have never really bothered thinking about seriously learning another language until i came to IGS, seriously the shire is a giant rock which everyone lives under- no joke.
I remember i was just chilling before class one time with everyone on the level 2 couches outside the library, and Doctor Durn (spell error haha my bad) randomly comes up to me and says, "Hey Alex... Can you speak Latin?" haha was interesting.
But my great great grandfather could speak 5 languages apparently, not sure exactly what but he was greek, so probably Italian and Arabic aswell. (possibly turkish and most likely english now that i think bout it were the other 2)
Anyhow, i decided this a long time ago, but for every 3 years of my life i will start a new language. Or possibly every 4. Im in my 3rd year of Japanese now, and im no where near fluency but im finally getting the hang of it- just the tricky words are getting me and the Kanji really place you back into the mud. But its chill. Next im not sure what i wanna learn, im thinking Spanish. But i kind of feel obliged to learn greek cause is my motherland and all... But even if i go to greece all fluent and such i'll still be looked as an outsider.
But the spanish i wanna learn is south american, not mainland. I have a knack for that- i mean im in Toyama which is countryside Japan, learning countryside Japanese. My dad speaks Islander Greek aswell.
But having said that i cant decide between morocco or egypt. Both are badass. Just the religious customs kinda....not scare, but just put me a little off.
But yeah, if i learn at least 1 language every 4 years, that means that by the time i am 28 i will know 4 languages. To some people thats nothing, but to me its so much having only started in year 11. (oh and someday i wanna learn italian too, but that has to come after greek sorry smaz)

Anyway, i thought id spill. Actually i remember thinking this once when i was a child, because i saw this awesome spy movie where the spies could speak other languages and i was all whoaaa people speaking languages i have no idea what they are saying yayayay spy yayayay cinemas.

Anyhow, the main purpose of this mail was really to tell Jon my phone number but i kinda wanted to disguise it with some information or else it just looks like im only giving a phone number. Which i am... And now you know my aim so this whole thing renders useless. Ok, this paragraph is bulky enough- my number is 0901-391-7586. But if you wanna contact me, maybe mail me at Genki413@softbank.ne.jp (probs have to use yo mammas phone or something). Aight now time to make the number a little more hidden by putting more words, and something more eyecatching to attract eyesight away from the number, 僕はうでの話しとるぞ。Yeahhh word.

Haha alrighty, if i talk too much bout the future i'll take now for granted. Speaking of the now, i hope your having a mad time Hogg, sometime i will learn German and go together with you haha. (i lie i lie)

Aight im off, peace.

EDIT yo i nearly forgot- Smaz my bro follow your heart man, i hope it all works out well with the new fam bam! Keep us updated yeah? If you dont we'll just assume your having an awesome time anyway haha aight kewl. (p.s i can edit again yayay) -.- to whoever took it away you know who you are.

Munich and stuff

So I arrived 2 days ago now. It's Tuesday, 3pm-ish.
I forgot to say we took the A380 Airbus from Dubai to Munich and Business class is on the top floor and they have like a bar in the back of the top floor plane you can just use it for like drinks and stuff and they serve full lunches, with like an entree and I had this nice arabic lamb dish. It was tasty and the experience was classy.
Anyway, Munich is pretty chill. The temperature is like 20 - 25 degrees and the weather sorta switches between sunny and overcast.
On Friday, we are going to Switzerland for the weekend to this Hotel overlooking the lake, apparently it's really pretty and I have my wide angle lens to take photos for you guys.
Plus, I am buying you all presents, cause shit here is cool. Also we went to a beer garden the day we got here and they sell like full litre glasses of beer. It's awesome, I want to bring some of the glasses back cause they cost like 3 Euros. Also some stuff for cocktails thats like a syrup you can only get here.
Also, Anshoo (my dad's girlfriend), bought my this hand cream and I need it here cause the flights really dried out my hands but it's pineapple and passion fruit scented but smells like honey too. It's really nice.
On a side note, I am learning the Arabic alphabet, they have 28 letters and you write from right to left. They have 22 joined and 6 non-joined letters, so all the letters meld like cursive often. I have only learnt 4 so far; alif, baa', taa' and thaa', which are aa, b, t and th sounds respectively.
Anyway, hope life's good for you guys:
Here is a  photo I edited, from Switzerland in January.

And this is a Hui edit, cause I was experimenting with skin airbrushing and general lighting config.

Also, guys super exciting, I am going on a hike through a glacier today!!! I will post photos when I get back!!
Also we need a Skype chatty time, I'm feeling like that'd be good. So Monday the 2nd, 12pm (midnight) Sydney time, 11pm Japan time, 3pm Europe time and 9am Canada time.

Now, it's hard to find a time that'll suit everyone cause of the variation of the time zones but this seems the best manageable. 

In Japan

Everything is like expected it to be.

The thing about japan is it is exactly like the movies and stuff. its what you expect it to be. so yeh, im chillen

and i was in tokyo airport but then i fucked up so this guy was like RUNNING around helping me because i fucked up and he was sweaty and shit, and i was like wow, they are so helpful. and people were waiting to pick my shit up and it was like a whole operation. shit was cray.

also i was put in business class for some reason. it was awesome but terrible, like i was rewarded for being bad.

Also Alex do you have a mobile for japan, whats your number? also i dont give a shit, imma come see you.

PEACE

guys

there is an australian dialect of german
aint that cool

yo

anyone who was gonna send me letters or anything, don't for a while cause I'm gonna change family soon

Hey guys. I have a question or something

If you were in a band or were a musician, what type of genre of music would you be playing/making??

and here's an edit of lambert because it seems to be a trend these days. (the picture is like seriously old)

RU told me to post this here. It's a photoshop edit.

PS: Sorry lambert, this image was just the first one I came across.

I'm in Munich

I arrived in Munich a few hours ago, it's like 6pm now. I got in at like 1:30.


Also, man Smaz or like anyone else; I know you want to learn some new languages over the next few years and stuff, so if you want to learn one of these outside Uni; I have 5 that I want to start learning before I am finished my degree in order to maximise my job opportunities in the Civil Engineering sector.
The 4/5 I want to learn are chosen to maximise my career experience so they may not sound like the most common chosen languages but knowing these 6/7 languages is like a massive help in the world of international business which is what I will be doing if I do Project Management work for an international company.
SO I already have English and almost fluent German, on top of these, I want to learn Arabic, Mandarin, Spanish or Portuguese depending on , Hindi and then the 5th one, I am trying to chose between Japanese and French.

Aight

So I haven't updated this in a long time (I'm not sure if I've posted since I've been 18 even) so I'll try do a quick recap of some stuff.

For those of you who don't know (like maybe Smaz and stuff), I'm at USyd doing Liberal Arts and Science (which means I can do pretty much any science or arts subject). I just finished my exams (which were Analytical Thinking, Middle Ages History, German and Psychology) and am now on holidays.

That said, I am single moming it up since I work 2 jobs (at Bakers and Grill'd [which is a burger place in Darling Harbour]) so I am still doing stuff most of the time, and that was on top of uni. But yeah, it's alright. I made friends at uni (it's cool how I hang with a few kids who left in primary school and the other Christian, Finn and Brigitta were all in classes that I had) so that's good.

These holidays ima learn to skate and get a dope new bike! And it's gonna be sweet.

I guess there's not much else, just wanted to say what was happening in my life. Also, Smaz, I wrote a late comment on your post, but pretty much if you really want to go live in mainland Italy, then don't take "no" for an answer. And how's it going for our other overseas brethren (namely Passas since you update the least of everyone overseas, is your exchange going good)?

So yeah, see ya'll later!
