All Good Things.....

Honestly what will become of me
don't like reality
It's way too clear to me
But really life is daily
We are what we don't see
Missed everything daydreaming

[Chorus]
Flames to dust
Lovers to friends
Why do all good things come to an end
Flames to dustLovers to friends
Why do all good things come to an end
come to an end come to an
Why do all good things come to end?
come to an end come to an
Why do all good things come to an end?

Traveling
I only stop at exits
Wondering if I'll stay
Young and restless
Living this way I stress less
I want to pull away when the dream dies
The pain sets in and I don't cry
I only feel gravity and I wonder why

Flames to dust
Lovers to friends
Why do all good things come to an end
Flames to dust
Lovers to friends
Why do all good things come to an end
come to an end come to an
Why do all good things come to end?
come to an end come to an
Why do all good things come to an end?

Well the dogs were whistling a new tune
Barking at the new moon
Hoping it would come soon so that they could
Dogs were whistling a new tune
Barking at the new moon
Hoping it would come soon so that they could
Die die die die die

Flames to dust
Lovers to friends
Why do
good things come to an end
Flames to dust
Lovers to friends
Why do all good things come to an end
come to an end come to an
Why do all good things come to end?
come to an end come to an
Why do all good things come to an end?

Well the dogs were barking at a new moon
Whistling a new tune
Hoping it would come soon
And the sun was wondering if it should stay away for a day til the feeling went away
And the sky was falling on the clouds were dropping and
the rain forgot how to bring salvation
the dogs were barking at the new moon
Whistling a new tune
Hoping it would come soon so that they could die.

p/s : Auf Wiedersehen Frankfurt und Deutschland ! thank you for being my home for 9 months .... flying home tomorrow y'all....see ya !

My Dream Car ....

huhu....of course there's a lot on my list ! which I don't know whether it's possible or not to own them...but no harm in dreaming ! .... yesterday, i've just added one into the list ...it's the new BMW 3 Series ....my god, that car is super cool if it comes with all the gadgets ....i've just had the luxury to take a ride in one of them yesterday on my way to visit a plant near the border of Swiss and Germany, located 350 km from Frankfurt .... it comes with all the fancy GPS navigation system. before the journey, you just have to insert the address and the system will directly point the way, it can tell the exact distance and the approximate time you will arrive depending on the speed...you also can choose, whether to travel via autobahn or the local road.... my colleague, which is also the first time driving that car was also pretty excited with the gadgets inside the car...being the racer at heart we chose the autobahn without any speed limit .... "Hisham, do you wanna see what this car can do?" ...effortlessly the car was cruising at 230 km/h....gosh...doesn't feel anything inside...cabin was very quiet & very comfortable... it has a DVD player, TV, sunroof, heated seatings, panic button (it will directly connect you to some communication centre if you're in trouble)....ayo ayo ...i was like this little kid in a toy store pressing all the buttons on the console....so, it really deserves the tagline as "the ultimate driving machine"..one thing aje this car can't do....drive by itself to the destination ...heheh....was sad when we have to return the key by the end of our trip.... :( ....tapi takper, it doesn't fit my luggage pun nak bawak balik.... :P

The Roman Holiday .... Day 2

Sunday

Colosseum
As usual, queue was very looooooong ….. luckily there was a guided tours with extra fees, so we managed to skip the line ….for me this is the peak of my visit to Rome…. speechless …..since I’ve been dreaming of being here for a very long time ….. I would advise for you guys to take the guided tour as is it worth every penny with extra Euro 3.50 only on top of the entrance fee Euro 11…. Informative, comprehensive and cool tourist guide! Lasted about 45 minutes and afterwards we’re free to roam inside the Colosseum … did you know that the colosseum was built on top of an artificial lake … it was used to be the garden area for the Golden Palace built by Emperor Nero … and then they constructed the monument so as to forget the memories on Nero as he was a very cruel emperor. And we were told that the chariot fights (something like kereta kuda with 2 wheels tu) never happened in Colosseum as it is very small …. So dlm movie Gladiator tuh Ajinomoto je laa… only fights between Gladiators and wild animals jek happened there ….

Inside the Colosseum

Pose depan Colosseum

Roman Forum
Just dropped by there for quick snaps…. Again more ancient ruins…..

Spanish Steps

The first embassy ever established in Rome which is from Spain…. Of course, lots of steps…. Adjacent to the these steps are the posh area for the brands like YSL, GUCCI, DIOR and friends….

Can you spot me ?!

Piazza D’ Popolo

It’s the north entrance for the city of Rome. This is where one of the Obelisks located. I think it was the largest and the tallest…. About 35 m heights…there are two identical churches separated by the main road….. This was also featured in Dan Brown’s book….huhu suka suka !

One of the Obelisk in the middle of the Piazza.

Vatican City
Since we got a few more hours to spend, we head back to the Vatican City for another cybershot moments as the weather is perfect ! we also went back to the Fontana Di Trevi ….mmm best !

by the time we reached there, battery dah kong, memory stick dah full ....so, memory photos jek hoping that someday I will be back ....

Okay … later then y’all ! Arrivederci ! and have a good weekend !

p/s : Have booked the ticket home ! yeay ! I'm flying home this coming Saturday .... had fun yesterday as it was Carnivale time in Deutchland ! best kutip goodies from the parade ....

The Roman Holiday .... Day 1

Buongiorno Bambino Bambinas ! okay, as promised, here are my updates on my last weekend in Rome ….I’m in love with the City !

Friday Nite : Flew to Rome. Flight took about 1.5 hours …a bumpy one as we approached Rome as it was raining. We’re running like crazy to catch the last train (Leonardo Express) to the City ….journey took another half an hour ….luckily, the hotel is nearby the Termini Station …. It was a good one….newly refurbished ….so okay laa kan …. Terus membuta lepas freshen up everything ….

Saturday

Vatican City
It was pouring that morning. Luckily I brought the umbrella …..soonest as we arrived, Cameras out and photo shoot sessions ! …. Started at the St Peter Square…have to go through security check before entering the Vatican…. Amazed by all the sculptures and architectures by Michaelangelo, Bernini to name a few….Feels like in Angels & Demons Novel !

View from St Peter's Square

Vatican Museum
Huh….had to queue to buy the tickets…get ready for a 2 km queue for about 1.5 hours before you can reach the ticket counter …. That’s as earliest we can go after visiting the Vatican City …. This is where the famous Sistine Chapel is located …full of elaborate painting on the walls during the Baroque era in Rome…. Raphael, Michaelangelo and the gang had their hands on these paintings…. Again, gaping mouth of how their passion towards arts …..a very detail paintings …all the art works are priceless in that Museum … gee…I don’t know even Sotheby or Christie’s can evaluate their prices !

With Zain my colleague : tgh beratur to get the tickets...

Paintings on the ceiling heading to Sistine Chapel.

Spiral Steps to the Museum's Exit.

Castle St Angelo
Stopped by the Castle for some snaps …. Didn’t go inside as it was pouring and shoes are wet … so, we decided to go to the Pantheon ….

Castle St Angelo...the bridge crossing Tiber River.

Pantheon
The building with the largest Concrete Dome in the world…. Pretty amazing on how do they design it that time ….in front of the Pantheon is the one of the 13 Obelisks (statue for the sun god) brought by the Roman Emperor all the way from Egypt …. The funny thing is only 5 are left in Egypt nowadays…. Habis dia angkut gi bawak gi Rome…. Dah la besar giler ….

The concrete dome...

The Obelisk

Pantheon

Piazza D’ Novona

Hmmm… this is where the fountains representing 4 corner of the worlds designed by Bernini…..sadly it was under restoration …lots of scaffoldings so, we didn’t manage to snap a good pics over there…. Just a few mini fountains on the side jek yg amik gambar….

One of the 3 Fountains.

Fontana D’ Trevi

My favourite spot ! I loved it ! grand giler giler the fountain with all the statues ! I just felt the calmness in the middle of the crowd watching the fountain while having my Italian Gelato …. Chocolate and Strawberry gelatos are to die for ! …. Yummy !

Fontana D' Trevi

Hard Rock Café Rome

Went to HRC to buy t-shirts and some mugs … cool place with lots of foreigners …. Be warned that the Metro service ends as early as 9 p.m on Saturday night …. Ayo …kena menapak lagi all the way back to the Hotel …which was about a gazillion blocks away from the HRC ! But it was worth the walks as we bumped into few gorgeous sites which was not listed as the main attractions ….

This is suppose to be me! not some lembaga okay ! gosh, really have to buy the tripod ...shobshob cap ayam pun cap ayam lah !

we found some concrete slab for the cameras ...okay la kan ?

To be Continued......(iklan 20 minit - cam dlm TV tuh)
