Look at you, people! How's it going? Yep, I'm turning adult, too. Promise I'll write soon inside the bin some good stuff (hope) that has come to my mind these days! I have to leave u for now, but! huge PRESENT! The new Britney single, 3 (just reminding lady gaga who has made the history of pop).
Watching tv today at lunch, obsessed by thoughts about...school. How much work I have to do this afternoon! Wish me good luck, please. But the quite cold voice from the news anchorman caught my attention, and my heart for a while! Six Italians paratroopers died a few days ago in Afganistan, people is quite angry here in Europe, we don't really think we should have a lot to do with a so far place and its troubles, but for hope in democracy, dream of power, or love of country, missions of "peace" involve our soldiers too with the Americans. Well, today they brought to Rome the six corpses of those unknown heros, and just a 2 year old kid, the basque of his brave father on his blond head and a blue t-shirt, made me cry, pointing with is little forefinger his dad's coffin, he tryed to run towards it, but the black dressed crushed mom didn't allow. So sad. I would hug them.
My aunt invited me for a special dinner on Thursday. We went in a peaceful and private place, just a simple local with wooden table and chairs, no music, no phones, nothing more, where everyone is free to take a seat of a table, even with people who he/she doesn't know. You eat macrobiotics and drink some green tea replacing water. It's a really strange cooking, you must be really open to experiments to appreciate it, but I found it good. The air was good. People were good. Life was good. At the moment. What a weird taste!
Hi guys, these two days were so crucial for me I almost had the time to breath correctly. On Monday, 14, I had to wake up at 6.30 a.m., have a quick shower, drink a coffee and get inside my dad's car. We picked my piano teacher up at her home and went through a long road (we also took the ferry!!!!) up to another zone of Italy, called Calabria. In one of the main cities of this region I had my piano exams at Conservatory. The examiners were quite nice and kind, but some boys and girls failed the exams because of the excitement. I made it quite well, I think, so now, I'm waiting for the public results! =) Today, Tuesday 15, was my very first school day. OMG, it was...a bit heavy, talking about exit-school-examinations and about the "A lot" we have to do this year....I want holidays to come here! NOW! On the other hand, my mates and I had the occasion to look down on the little skinny (or fat) junior students...ahah, they're always so confused about where to catch the bus, where to search their classes, where to go to eat.. =) pure innocents.
Last but not least...the Chopin valzer I played during my exams, I really don't know who on the earth could be this Olga Bordas, but it's still the same work I did. Hope you like it =)
Hello everyone. Today the weather drove me crazy here in South Italy. The sun was just dancing with some clouds in the sky, the wind was pretty soft and dusty, some thunders claimed winter is coming and the rain washed the streets, softened the sand on the beach, quenched the sea's thirst. I enjoyed all of this melancholy gladly alone in my room, working hard for my piano exams, trying to fill the total lack of math exercises on my papers before school starts, lying on my bed quite like a cat. But, like on every rainy day I should do, never sate of music, I searched for a song, a melody, a voice, that could make the rain outside my window take a meaning and dance. And well, I found it! I'm definitely in love with it. Hope you see in the drops of water the faces that I saw, the old inns where Shakespeare smoked, got drunk and wrote masterpieces, and I'm not crazy at all!
Ehy guys, how's it going? Summer is about to end, this is the last week, so almost each teenager dedicated some thoughts to this yearly dramatic turning point. I guess I'm an ordinary teenager, so this job comes to me here too. What to say? This was not one of my most exciting summertimes, but I've been able to live the progress of my life though, quite happily. I spent last night with my friends, thinking about wow, we only have one school year left. And it's the 2010. It made us think back to a national famous movie "Night before the Exams", with all the troubles, emotions, mishaps and delights that typically afflict people around that age. We also will have to watch the Football World Cup, that causes the most beautiful, noisy, festive, colourful civil coesion in our country. I hope you know, Italy won the last Cup and millions of people here went around the streets, painted faces, cars, people who washed in the TREVI fountain, people who shouted along the Colosseum, people who played and sung on the trucks and the ancient statues. And the WHOLE thing happens just during the Exams' time! Or even the Night before! After this tri-coloured thought we spoke about universitys and colleges, about the weather wich is going rainy, about the...yawn. We were already on the way home, looking for a bed. And for facebook. Is that an addiction?
By the way, here in sum, these days, in which I started my math exercises, looked a lot more to the changing sky, in wich we met a frog (yes, a jumping FROG!) on the street next to our beach, in wich I enjoyed good fried peppers and two female friends of mine (even if engaged) enjoyed a kiss, that, still, somewhere around the world would be forbidden.
And, ladies and gentlemen, a rare precious clip of million dollar britney, singing LIVE for the first time since a VERY long time, the cover of a song by A, A...A....Alanis Morissette? Omg, really her. The song is "You oughta know". Fans from Greensboro and around the world, shocked. She actually has got a voice!
You know, in a short time (still 10 days) school will be open again, and here we come to the matter: 316 math exercises to do, tons of stuff to study for the piano exam (9 days to it), but Still a lot of boredom and heat......So, when in a bad mood cause of all the strange people, the complicated situations, the boring job waiting for you on the desk, just WASH your troubles away.. It's easy, funny and smells chlorine =)
