Roman holidays

After all the goodbyes and tears and sorrow I finally had some rest away from everything and everyone. 

Rome….what a wonderful and lovely city! It’s sooo full of colours and people and noise. The perfect place to keep busy for a week with my lovely brother.

We’ve been walking without a rest every single and despite being incredibly tired we managed to see not all but most of the main attractions…including the zoo!! It was one of the best days of my holiday. Seeing all those lovely animals was really touching and we fell in love with two huge brown bears swimming and playing. One of them came to me and I could almost touch him…it was an unforgettable moment.

The weather was quite good. The first two days were quite cloudy and we there was almost a storm. We got completely wet! But the rest of the week surprised me with an amazingly warm sun and a bright blue sky :) My breast and my neck are sunburnt!!

Yesterday I got back home. It was sad to leave my brother, but there were my parents and my wonderful grandma waiting for me at the airport Aaaaaand I’ll have nothing to do till September :D No summer plans for now, I just hope I won’t get bored. But I’m sure I’ll enjoy these months thanks to my bestfriends :)

Goodbye

That scary moment has come. I’m leaving Edinburgh tomorrow night and thinking I’ll never see my friends again freaks me out.

Already had to say goodbye to Jessica tonight. We’ve been crying, didn’t expect we were so emotional. And after I came back from clubbing I cried again. Just can’t stop my tears going down my cheeks.

I hate goodbyes. I hate that the people I love are going away, I’m not gonna stay with them next year. In September there will be almost no one. No boyfriends. No friends. It’s gonna be fucking awful.

I’m not in the mood for starting my summer holidays. Not in the mood for anything. I’m gonna miss everyone.

 

Appunti e otto zampe

Il tanto temuto esame è domani…un mese di preparazione per arrivare alla sera prima con il vuoto più totale in testa. Altro che scimmietta di Homer Simpson..è proprio un blackout totale. Ma arrivare a domani significa essere quasi alla fine del mio primo anno universitario. Ed ecco che entrano in ballo i famosi sentimenti contrastanti di felicità/tristezza che non riescono a farti provare sensazioni precise. Il cuore batte a ritmi discontinui e il la respirazione irregolare provoca ansia ed agitazione, poco piacevoli mentre si cerca di studiare per degli esami. 

Colpo di grazia pre-esame: una bolgia di ragni annidati nell’angolo più remoto della stanza. Capitanati da Signora ragno, grande, nera e pelosa. Non potevo vedere la sua bocca ma sono certa che vi era stampato un ghigno quando è uscita fuori per affrontarmi…ed io codarda che non sono altro ho lasciato che la mia bomboletta di Glade uccidesse…ma senza risultato. I cattivi non muoiono mai! Ma alla fine tutto è finito per il meglio…ragno spiaccicato sotto la mia ciabatta e notte insonne evitata. 

Mannaggia a me, agli esami e alla mia aracnofobia.

Another revision day

First exam is gone and still 3 to go! Have tons of notes and slides to revise but still didn’t manage to make meself anxious or scared or whatever I should feel. The weather sucks (Yay!) and the thought of going outside and enjoy the sun cannot cross my mind :D  

Now I’m on a sofa with a dwarfy painter who listens to weird music in the bathroom…a good start to start revising! 

And for the other stuff and matters that never stop to come up across my innocent path, there’s still time. Dear problems, I have no time to deal with you.

procrastination

Revision time…I’m finally in Edinburgh and I haven’t been doing much these days…just went to the cinema to watch the Avengers and then I was basically stuck in my room convincing myself it’s time to study seriously and procrastinating…

But I have a new resolution for tomorrow: The library won’t help my procrastination and hopefully I’ll be able to study once and for all…1st exam in two days..woohooo.

Spring side effects

Feeling like you’re drunk but there’s no trace of alcohol in your body.

Feeling high and smiling without a reason.

Loving tenderness.

Looking at the sky and dreaming of almost impossible things.

Laughing.

Not regretting.

Being glad.

Enjoying life, even during revision time.

Feeling every heartbit.

What a boring routine

Wellwellwell. I took my Edinburgh – Rome – Catania plane two weeks ago. And if I try to sum up what I’ve been doing during this time…..I realise that the answer is NOTHING. No leisure, no sun, no fun, nothingnothingnothing. I’ve just been eating like a pig…and thank goodness I didn’t gain weight!!! Two days ago I started my revision for the coming exams and this means my life in Italy is not that useless. At least there is nothing and no one that can distract me from my study. 

And the only person that can distract me is 9 days away…. :D

I don’t mind if I’ll go back to the Burgh for 4 exams…I just want to be there and enjoy that amazing city with its lovely culture and awful weather. 

I bet a yummy pizza will cheer me up!!
