Posts Tagged ‘Summer Cruise

Good evening from now cloudy Egeo Sea.

We’re reaching Mykonos and we’re quite amazed at the grace of our lives, and it would take a VERY special event to make me break-in here…

Which in fact did happen.

Lovely masterchief Mark Medina @LakersBlog in Los Angeles Times was so gracious to feature me already in the Blog special feature.

Of course (is anybody surprised?) the title involves my hero, the one and only Kobe Bean Bryant 😉

And THIS, my Lakers Pride and love, and my joy to be shared with all the Laker Fam there, surely deserves this time I take to come here for and update the blog.

In fact I can’t wait for September to come so that I can join back all warmin up season talks in the Blog.

Oh… and next week Serie A starts too.

Fall: Time For Sport 😉

Enjoy… *me* 😉

My Lakers Blog Profile. Thanx Mark Medina 😉

So… cruise still going on.

And man… I’m the happiest I have ever been.

EVER. 😉

Catch you soon again with a GIANT Recap post as well 😉

Bu-bye! 😉

Z.

I tried…

I swear I did try…

Lovely Anne V on Elle Italy Cover Special for Fall/Winter 2010/2011 collections

But holiday is rocking and I just can’t bother with writing stuff over a pc so, while I am still collecting blog material to eventually share over these pages (and so far it already includes audio excerpts, pictures, videos and all of the usual bites you read over here) thanx to people sending stuff to me, you gotta forgive my lazy ass, but I won’t upload stuff until an abundant half of my cruise is gone.

I am simply in heaven.

That’s it.

I know you know how I feel regarding people wasting their lives over Internet so…

It’s only natural and logic I won’t do anything to stop me from a no forced exhile from blogging.

And anyway, you see that at least some tweets always come from me even on boat (and there you can check also glimpses of my ROCKING Summer… 😉 ).

It’s Life.

And mine is hella GREAT one ;)…

Click and get Two Misery Remixes

I simply don’t have time to waste on the web, while I’m having a blast of month.

You get me right?

But I promise the couple of updates you will nonetheless get here in August will contain all that has passed in Maroon5 territory during this touring month.

It’s just that you’re gonna have it written… Big, but Later.

It’s Holiday Time.

I swear… I tried.

But Holiday&Fun&Life&Love just have to take over.

And they Massively Did.

Enjoy Your own Summer, peeps 😉

Karim's Harley D for sunday ride

So, we are currently riding home this morning after a wonderful weekend at our friends Bianca and Roberto’s house in Veneto.

We had a wonderful time, we visited countryside on both days, and yesterday we had a very pleasant ride day over our Harleys.

Rob Coff on his Harley sunday

I cherish time with friends and I am always happy in decoding how much Karim fits with any of them he gets to meet for multiple days after maybe a dinner or a quicker introductory visit went out okay.

Today we pack.

Fitting in for one month for me is huge… but for how big my boat is, I know I better avoid to move a closet.

I can always buy something on the journey… 😉

The itinerary has been approved.

We skip Ibiza and the Spanish coast because we’ve been there a lot anyway, and we went to Barceloneta in May so we rather try the other side of Mediterranean instead.

We will move from Genova to Saint-Tropez, then move to Corsica, and then reach Palau and the northern of Sardinia.

From there, we will direct to Elba and Maddalena, then down to Ventotene, and then we will do Ischia and Capri.

We will then go to Eolie islands, we hope to see Agrigento too in Sicily, and from there, feeling quite like Ulysses, we will pass the sea and reach the bottom of Italy, the beautiful thriade Gallipoli, Leuca and Otranto.

From there we will do a bit of Greece and we will finish with Croazia, and get back to Venice.

Boat Life - Maroon 5 (6) in New Hampshire, 31st July 2010

Sounds pretty awesome, right?

Man… I am so happy.

I feel so blessed and lucky… well, it’s that I AM that in fact.

And in all this, I am with Karim (friends will reach us at the various stops, so that we will enjoy also friendly care beside the personnel we have on board to take care of us ;)).

The main thing of yesterday was my well debated, but then really approved, Top Ten Songs 0f 2010 List (so far… but I see it hard to beat at least any of the top 5 places…).

I listen and buy a shitload of music every month; my tastes are variated and I listen to music in 5, 6 languages so my range to pick up from is huge.

Basically, when I evaluate “the best” I try to see the complete package: music, vocals, lyrics, overhall feeling, impact, a sense of personality displayed, and boldness.

it’s not really about genres as much as it’s about… honesty in art.

Because for me music definitely is art.

Look at my Top 10 from my Twitter Page:

Top 10 Songs of 2010

I had to include Robyn’s song because she has this amazing talent in creating life real lyrics and apply them to club situations, and turning them into a well painted scenery of real stuff going on for real people.

Anne and crew in Saratoga, first date of Maroon 5 Summer Tour

I am a big fan of her, and she has actually created one of the songs I feel nearer to (Handle Me), but in “Dancin On My own“, the situation s completely unknown by me (I reject if any… never been rejected or even not considered holy in my life 😉 I know… seems like I bitch out but that’s how my life has worked… and like it will keep on working. Sorry. I’m hot ;)).

Still, she sings it so well I feel like I actually empathize.

That is good music (and then the melody reminds me of Limhal’s Never Ending Story, which I love!!!).

Another point that people got surprised was the fact I named “Airplanes” (#4) best duet of 2010 for me.

They expected either Gotten or Promise out of Slash album to be named that for me… and it should have, if I hadn’t feel those like no duets.

"People" on a boat in New Hampshire at the end of July... 😉

To me a duet has to imply two vocalists: featured vocalists by a legendary guitarists make me not feel that as duet.

And by the way, both Gotten and Promise would definitely belong in my TWENTYFIVE best songs of the year list so far.

But not in the top ten.

😉 Sorry. I’m picky. Even more when it’s about my favourite musicians. I espect always the over top, and being really really good sometimes isn’t enough for pleasing my taste 110%.

Saratoga and a Disco Ball...

I keep being this honest. I think it’s a total virtue, and I don’t care how YOU do feel about it. DEAL with me, or go away. 😉

I have of course bites of stuff about babies on tour, and I honestly await to see that gigantic disco ball live while they will play Give a Little More on stage (cute!!! some of the pics you see here are from their first two shows and from the Boat Ride they took in New Hampshire before the gig… boat are cool this year, I know. Mine is cooler though ;)).

There are also some lovely homage of the one and only Queen that I have to share, that she sent over days (and that I caught only a few hours ago because you know me… Holiday = Holy = No Internet for hours = Fun of Real Life = JOY… ;)).

Remember that yesterday for instance there was some Fuse Re-Run (for USA) and that there are more stuff that Fuse Tv keeps share.

Something like for instance this AUDIO thing:

And then the funny video Adam shared of James on Twitter:

And then that thing you saw also on previous post about Adam and Mickey supporting the No Nukes campaign:

Talkin about Video and Good things, yesterday Green Music Group YouTubed THIS:

To end, we know after a answer Adam provided yesterday before rockin out Connecticut that Maroon5 will be gracing my Milan town by the start of the new year (expected… but by then I will have already seen them at least twice, hopefully thrice ;)…)

I wonder if they’ll follow the plan strictly as last tour or will surprise me with unexpected dates in pleasant European corners.

I still think they are making a mistake in overlooking Europe for too long already, but ehi… they’re adult and experienced: hopefully they do realize what this might imply, and are okay with the outcome anyway.

Choices.

It’s all about choices and responsibility. 😉

Michele Merkin. I wanna be as toned when I am 35 😉

Pleasant Scrubby Stuff: Adam shouted out full of happiness yesterday evening at Michele Markin joining twitter and following him, which he replied with an immediate following at her (they’re clearly friends from quite a time, because all the LA crew followed Adam’s footsteps in the MM’s following so nothing nasty there. At least not currently/anymore… ;)) .

Anne must be really a sporty person… because THIS is Michele (not strange, she’s of Russian Jewish descent. + Swedish. Practically perfection, right? Well, in European optics, DEFINITELY you can’t beat a female 5’11”, with THAT bust and THOSE eyes and lips coming from Sweden and Russia mix of blood. Elves in Tolkien were inspired by THAT genetic. I’m just saying ;)… ;)).

But you know my way of thinkin and phylosophy there: jalousy is the most useless of feelings, both to manifest or carry inside, both to feel object of or make somebody feel inspired with).

Losers, and/or very insecure people are jalous.

Beautiful, successful people who are jalous just haven’t grown up enough, and to me they’re pretty much frauds.

If you do your best and are the best you can be in a relationship, you don’t have to be jalous and you don’t have to fear a single thing (and for me, betrayal is a fragile concept anyway…); so in the end, Anne is safe, as long as everything works and when it eventually wouldn’t anymore (which I hope never happens… you know I am a sucker for them to keep being together)… it’s not another one who is the problem.

It’s still YOU the only problem AND the one and only possible solution as well.

Anne V on that boat in New Hampshire, 31st July 2010... 😉

And by the way, Anne still looks so >>>

Don’t think we could have have any problem, right? 😉

Pearls of sexual Wisdom provided by Miss Z. The gal who wouldn’t mind her man to have sex with others and who would probably just ask “who is better in bed now?” only to have the obvious answer “None can beat you, Z.”

Because there couldn’t be any other possible answer, baby. GUARANTEED 😉

(Yep… I am THIS bitchy 😉 and that full of me. And so far, around 200 people think my nickname is Totally well-deserved. I’ll re-evaluate my self perception in case something earthqwakes that reality… ahahaha!!!)

Don’t be thinkin bad of Adam anyway (and how could you anway? He’s so sweet and adorable!), that is so open it can’t be bad, and Anne followed Michele as well as soon as the rest of the gang (though I am not sure she is part of the “68 chronic masturbators” Adam hinted at… LOL!).

This was what he was declaring about Anne at ET (you saw the video in the previous post) three days ago after all:

adam levine on ET 30 July 2010

But he definitely has a fav type (plus, I find Michele, whom I obviously don’t follow – not interested in her life after all – but whom I naturally put in my Twitter list M5&Related, really really funny. I think guys are tied to gorgeously stunning females who can be as full mouthed and openly sexual like males love to be…. she must be definitely a funny conversation to start along, and has that aura of tomboy I TRULY love to practice as well, which makes me get entertained in my reading) .

And let’s clap hands at him on it.

😉 It’s really really really something no one could blame him for: it’s for the better evolution of human species … ;).

What else now?

After we pack at Karim’s house we will move back to my territory, also because today I have to spend my last chance with my Swifty before I say bye to him for one month.

I will miss my horse so dearly!!! Hopefully he has been getting used to the idea of not seeing me for a while. *hopefully*… 😉

I’d just say to close this… enjoy yourself.

I’m going to be REALLY enjoyed in a bunch of hours…;)

LIFE IS GREAT 😉

great classic from Adam's past 😉 Ehi! He started to recall "memory lane"... 😉

Is it me, or this massive July heat that spreads over Lombardia and makes even Milan people long for a CityBeach among concrete buildings makes you dream about sea&suntan&holidays like… 24/7?

Today at work is being insane… my lunch break was all about eating an icecream, and starting uploading this (I write pieces of posts in different moments and then I put them together when there are not specific news to report, so imagining tomorrow as well will be like today, namely HECTIC and FILLED, I better put online this before everything gets old ;))

I’m really into incoming holidays.

Yup.

It takes just three weeks… less than those…

And then all I want to know about will be how to rock my boat in our Summer Cruise (as I promised, I will take on my holidays Noah so I will keep *some* quick blog updates. Just because I can be *SO* kind… ;))

But yeah… I’m getting lazy and I cannot wait for being free from work for 4 weeks.

Is THAT phase of the year when all my working tasks start to take a toll.

Actually I would have liked to attend one more last week, because that would have felt not much as work, but more like a wonderful experience.

Dad was in Turin for ESOF and he got to attend of course Nobel Ada Yonath‘s lecture.

Now that’s a woman who is inspirational to me, as a chemist, as a person, as a scientist… as a female… as EVERYTHING.

I imagine many of you cannot be chemists and they have no idea who Ada is, but take a rapid look at THIS, at least. The future of our next better lives are in her studies:

To balance this “Quark” moment I step back of a bunch of hours, congratulating of course Spain for their awesome acheivement in the World Cup Final.

Paulpo Paul was right:

Beside that, know that Paulpo Paul is retiring (excerpt from the hilarious DLISTED site, which I adore…)

I actually saw excerpts of the final only, because when it was played we were at LaScala watching the awesome Béjart version of The Kabuki.

It has been so emotional and beautiful…

During the whole ballet, Karim and I would caress one another feeling the Japanese magic all over again.

We kept writing on one another’s hand skin “I love you” and “Let’s go back to Japan soon” 🙂

I adore that we adore traveling to the same places JUST the same 😉

Derek Fisher is DA MAN. Hat off to his greatness and loyalty 🙂

Talkin about traveling.

One person who should NOT travel is Derek Fisher.

Derek… do not even think about leaving Los Angeles… and Lakers, please stop tease and sign him straight back.

Derek is Laker for life.

Don’t kid.

DON’T.

UPDATE: Of course Derek Fisher STAYS with The Lakers. just because there could be no other place like LakersDome for him. And of course the reason and the man he couldn’t leave for is the one and only, the amazing God of Basketball, Kobe Bean Bryant :)

Talkin about my adored Kobe, yesterday I was going to bed, happy to know Derek was staying with us… and just before turning tv off, Sky showed this, that a lovely soul put over YouTube straight for my delight.

Okay, the non italians won’t get it, but I get amazed at Kobe’s GREAT italian accent and always captivated by his beautiful voice.

My one and only hero, upset because Italy SUCKED in the cup 😉 (Kobe, angel of my life… it was all logically expectable… none of those puppets are like YOU…):

Of course, Kobe is a MilanAC supporter. I mean. OF COURSE. I am… he is ;). Just logic: great minds think alike 😉 (I also thought Germany could have won, Kobe, but in the end, Spain deserved. Pau is gonna be happy and pumped ;))

Read happily about the due ending of Derek’s saga in the Lakers Blog (ah, if it weren’t this lazy these summer days I would love to write about this in there… but nope… my writing forces are zero when heat breaks the 35 C limit ;))

Right that we are on travels&people, Russian Fairy moved from native Russia allegedly back to Western territories.

Guess she was quite sad to leave her homeland (I think it’s natural… to never hear anybody speak your own language, to never get to read your alphabet for months, to stay apart from your own people for so long since so many years is definitely NOT easy. Especially when all this is being done since you were a teenager... but at least she has a great life out of that sacrifice, and that balances the minuses, right? I hope so, at least. Otherwise it would be really bad…).

Then it seems Milan isn’t the only place in Europe where heat is really hard to beat 😉 (Mash, who was in catwalks in Paris and Berlin too, told us it’s kinda cooking out. But being dark skinned, for him is better ;))

Hopefully Adam will get a better mood out from the fact she gets nearer to him again, because in the past hours he was quite… fluctuating from enthusiasm for surroundings… to Holy Wars resembling DonQuixote (Adam, honey… you can’t teach taste by snapping fingers babystop taking care of unimportant words around you? better ;)), to some drive down to memory lane which sounded both kinky and someway… odd?

Anyway, Adam and kinkyness go hand in hand always… I finally found what Marghe reported to me out from the VEVO show, the part about Jeremy Sisto…:

From New York Post... 😉

I know… I know… we love him exactly because it’s THIS unfiltered (at least, I do for that especially) 😉

The VEVO gig anyway will be broadcasted for everyone later on, so just stay tuned, okay?

Then we do love him because after some venting out, he can just take up the “virtual pen” of Twitter and say this (first reading of my morning… and it was really really sweet ;)):

Just taking another moment to thank our fans yet again for giving us this life. 🙂”  >>> All together… *AWWW* 😉

Today then Adam will wake up pretty soon cos he has to attend Mark & Mercedes show in the wee hours of the morning ( a tragedy for him ;)). Wow… maybe this time they will make him talk with Malia Obama? ;).

UPDATE >>> UPDATE >>> UPDATE :

The interview, literally one hour after broadcasted, is already HERE thanx to the incredible work of DA Queen Jennifer Coles. enjoy 😉 :

Let’s momentarily get back to the previous post though (where I already detailed the fact Bob Carmichael’s footage for Story video had won awards, ndr) to show you a couple of fan videos from the attendance of Maroon5 at Steve Job’s Tech Dream Land in Cupertino:

and this one:

Cute, innit?

Even cuter is this about the special 27th of July event that will be Fuse Broadcasted, that you know already of because I shared the news a few days ago (people also won tickets, so… ;)):

Maroon 5 at Beacon Theatre on July 27

I think  for today it can be enough… and anyway gotta get back working.

More incoming nex days on 😉

Have happy Tuesday folks 😉
