00:00I'm not very good at rules. I don't suppose I ever have been. Like I'll follow the rules where it
00:06makes sense but sometimes I stand back and really need to question things and I realised this hugely
00:12very recently when I was in Rome. I went on a short city break and obviously when you go to
00:18Rome what do you do? You go to the Vatican because it is famed for the Vatican and it is
00:23a beautiful
00:23place to walk around. I mean I've never seen so many ornate ceilings in my life. It was like
00:27ceiling after ceiling after ceiling which ends through that Vatican route in the Sistine Chapel
00:34and obviously I was so keen to go to the Sistine Chapel because you've got Michelangelo's famed
00:40painting of the two hands nearly nearly touching. I'm desperate to see that in real life and obviously
00:46take a photo of it. I got in there. I didn't realise you're not allowed to take photos. I'd missed
00:53that
00:53Hanoi announcement and I went to take a picture. I got massively reprimanded like shouted at by a very
01:01burly Italian security guard which should have sort of freaked me out and made me go oh god I'm so
01:07sorry
01:07but instead I wanted to go fuck off. I would never do that in the Sistine Chapel. But I was
01:13so riled like
01:14I want to take a picture of it. I haven't got my flash on. Why is it a problem? I
01:19also understand
01:20and respect that there are religious reasons potentially as to why I shouldn't be taking the
01:26picture. I'm assuming because I'm not quite sure why else but it gave me a moment of self-awareness
01:32that I don't like people telling me what to do. I don't like rules. They are just sort of like
01:39a
01:39natural dislike and I think sometimes that can be a good thing because it makes you want to try new
01:47things. Do things your way rather than follow the crowd but sometimes also just like gets you in
01:52trouble and that's not so fun.
