“Is it too difficult to ask: «would you like a coffee?»”

Three years ago, and nothing is changed.
What is the problem with the the classic “hook up” in the streets. There is no more!!! Which means that the idea of ​​the convent is once again at stake! Walking for a while among tourists, almost all foreign shopkeepers, some guy is there, but on his own. Some girl is there, but heatedly chatting with friends and not looking around in the slightest.
What does it matter, then an App will take care of making them meet…

“Hello, do you have a needle and thread? I would like to sew a button. “[1]

 

After reading this sentence on facebook, I had seriously thought of closing with the male gender. End of the games, I’m going to the convent. Because women do not attract me in the slightest, but if the level of courtship of men has dropped that much, perhaps the enclosure is not just a choice but even one of the most suitable.

But then I realised that Someone could have argued  a bit about my relationship to say the least fluctuating with religion, and my personality not accustomed to too rigid rules.

And then the alarm at 5 for the Lauds? Noooooo way!

WhoMakesMeDoIt!!

But the question remains. What happened to the courtships of the past?

I do not speak of who knows what twist but about the beloved, old, simple and direct…

“Fault! Asperger’s isn’t a fault. It’s a variant. It’s potentially a major advantage. Asperger’s syndrome is associated with organization, focus, innovative thinking, and rational detachment.” [4]

<<Since then, I must have given The Rosie Project to at least 50 friends. Graeme has been busy too, writing a sequel called The Rosie Effect. As soon as we heard about it, Melinda and I asked him for an advance copy, and we enjoyed it so much that we invited Graeme to come to Seattle to talk to us about it.>>

 I don’t usually trust the reviews of others about books, but if Bill Gates is careful to dwell on the book to all his friends and write reviews everywhere, this a intrigues me quite a bit:

Don is a professor of genetics at the Melbourne’s University who recently made an incredible discovery: married men are on average happier than single men. This is why he decided, as a scientist, to change the fact that he doesn’t have a partner and he never managed to find one in a project: The…

“The Experiment”

I would be tempted to do it again, but technologies are my only communication in a summer without holidays …

Through The Mirror

«This is enough! I have made my decision! I want to spend a week without any new technology. People have done it for generations and generations in the past, I was born when most of these diabolical objects werenot even in the market, so I can! I switch everything off. »

 

I started this experiment when I came back from vacations. Having been abroad, I felt partially detoxified by the technology and it seemed to me to be a good time.
I was a bit tired by this kind of interdependence between the computer and me and I also started wondering how to do something without tech support  should an hecatomb or a blackout  happen.  .

[I do not want to play the part of the naive but … as soon as I decided to leave withouttechnology I got the flu! And not the light ones, I don’t…

“The snow does not care…”

In Rome it does not happen often, and in those rare occasions when it falls, unfortunately it is a big problem because the city gets paralyzed.

But when it happens it is an extraordinary sight, an example of how nature is amazing.

Through The Mirror

Winter is a strange seasonwhich lasts exactly like all the others but it seems longer, it might be for the cold, because we mount up so many commitments, because the days are shorter and you are likely to leave the house when it’s dark and returning after dark.

The sky is dark, blue-grey, the streets are busy, parks are empty if we not count some unfortunate person who has no other place to go.

But there is a moment when everything disappears, everything seems muffled and beautiful, almost magical: when it snows.

In Rome it does not happen often, and in those rare occasions when it falls, unfortunately it is a big problem because the city gets paralyzed.

But when it happens it is an extraordinary sight, an example of how nature is amazing.

In meteorology the snow is a configuration of atmospheric precipitation in the form of crystalline water…

“The best thing I could learn”

Through The Mirror

From school I learned that what you really learn are not the times tables or important dates but being with people you do not know and you really care about too little (or too much);
From tales I learned that there are bad guys but you can boycott them;
From volleyball I learned that the individual is strong but it is the group that makes the difference, that no matter how Mother Nature made you, but how you  bring out your grit, determination, strength, tenacity! ;
From the theater I learned that the real actors are all under the stage and that the best masks are the ones we wear every day. That if you believe in something you can make it happen. ;
From the reading I learned that if you know more than others you’ll always be one step ahead, and you will avoid the commonplace;

“Are you friendzoning me?!?!”

Through The Mirror

Let’s speak out , the friend zone is a social evil that is advancing silently without mercy . It has indiscriminately hit men and women, adults and teenagers, reality and fiction, and the symptoms are different and therefore recognising them is very very difficult.
For those who do not know what the friend zone is, let me enlighten you:

Like exponential diffusion, it is difficult to recognize. This is mainly because the communication between men and women has always been complex, no one has yet managed to encode a language that translates immediately from “female” to “male” and vice versa; communication in writing, as happens more and more often with social media (fb or twitter) or with the old dear sms, whatsapp and email, between the two sexes is risky .

In the era of globalisation, it is increasingly more common to exchange contact details with foreign people and…

“La sua pelle gialla a malapena copriva la trama dei muscoli e delle arterie, i suoi capelli erano fluenti e di un nero lucente, i denti di un bianco perlaceo, ma questi pregi facevano solo un più orrido contrasto con gli occhi acquosi che sembravano quasi dello stesso colore delle orbite biancastre...”[1]    L'eruzione del …

“Caccia alla Spia”

A chi ci si può dare credito, ci si interroga in Homeland. All’eroe di guerra creduto morto in Iraq, rinvenuto e scarcerato dopo anni di prigionia, che forse è diventato, nel frattempo, una spia di Al Qaeda? O dell’unica agente della Cia che sospetta la minaccia, ma che, nello stesso tempo, eccede nell’uso di farmaci e sembra …
