  1. In the past, you just knew things happened around you.
    Nowadays, you know pretty well the world and couldn't ignore it.
  2. You Know, but you don't believe, because you don't see it.
    You see pretty clothes, organized society, you forget the broken environment.
  3. Love doesn't equal to idealise;
    You love someone, something, you love not only the good side but also the bad side.
  4. People look like what they look like (educated for example)

Giacomo B-day party



Yesterday was Giacomo's 23th birthday. He arranged a party in his place and designed a poster for it. I went to the party not only enjoyed it but also learned few things from it.


  1. The gesture in the poster means a lot to the Italian, they really like to do this while they are talking.
  2. Never go to a party on time, always be 1 or 2 hours late.
  3. Beer Pong : also known as Beirut, is a drinking game in which players throw a ping-pong ball across a table with the intent of landing the ball in a cup of beer/water on the other end. The game typically consists of two two-to-four-player teams and multiple cups set up on each side set up in triangle formation.(wiki)
  4. The Etiquette of cheek-kissing : one goes to right cheek and then to left, and remember making kiss sounds.


Happy Birthday to Giacomo!!
