Living? Fine art
To those who argue that living together at university is the most beautiful and fun to the world I say fooled! Living with other students is certainly an experience that teaches you many things, but is not always that much cool they want you to believe.
To begin the important thing is the factor C. Imagine the scene: after a careful selection of ads (written with appropriate omissions of the case), the flat-start tour. You will see things that you humans can not even imagine: very small rooms and no windows, stairs at very high prices etc. etc ... And more than the structure you should also consider the humanity that is inside, and all in a half-hour. Who knows what lies behind that smiling face looking in all ways to make you notice the great advantages of living in this apartment with a rent superfantastico and expenses low prices?
Now we are optimistic to admit that finding a nice house with a nice big room in a good location and a rent is not excessive. We are optimistic, but remember that the best is yet to come. The examination will start after the move, and when you have finished unpacking, cleaning the room etc. etc. will begin the true knowledge of your roommates. And here is part of the game factor C: Yes, because somehow you did not notice when you came to see the house that one of your roommates plays in a metal band that just happens to try at home once a week? Or living there with you even a barking dog practically all day? Or that your roommate has a slight aversion to water, detergent and shower gel?
But we take a step further: let's pretend that we still have luck, and this second step is exceeded. Now you must learn to understand who you are presented with and how to deal with this person. Here too we can be lucky and become friends. Always looking at things optimistically must keep in mind that living with a brother or sister can be tricky. Imagine a perfect stranger.
The best technique is to learn to speak very clearly: never use hints, you should always express the concept explicitly. At least when you say, "This week you touch cleaning" your beloved roommate will not ask you if it's a phrase you read in some book.
I have been very lucky, but in any case live is truly a fine art.

Choose a word
Sometimes there are unexpected things. Do not you hear them coming, do not see them arrive, or simply were not exactly in your mind. Yet it is these things that changes your life, you open up new horizons or simply change the way you live.
I think it's a little bit what happened to me. This year has really been full of changes, which I was very upset life: I started a specialist a little far from home, in a city that I love and where I can not really feel at ease. It 's like I'm always missing a piece, as if there was always a little jarring that will inevitably ruin the show. New home, new city, new university and zero friends. Not what I would call a decidedly positive.
After the holidays the idea of \u200b\u200breturning for the new year was the most horrible thing I could imagine ... But a movie last night I opened a new perspective that could be improved. " Eat, Pray, Love " opens up a new idea of \u200b\u200bliving life: that of hope. The course teaches you that life is not always happy and that we must have the courage to fight and change. But what if you have the courage then life rewards you with something really extraordinary and unexpected, which gives an unprecedented turning point in your life. And if I think about is what in part is happened to me.
This year has been difficult, apart from the change at the university level, I had some minor health problem, and seeing my grandparents grow old so quickly is not something that falls into the category of pleasant. But I was given an encounter that has improved my life: I met some wonderful people who are now my friends, my family and all at random.
So I will not have traveled to Italy, India and Bali, but I was also in a critical phase of change: I fought and I'm still fighting and life seems to have given me a glimpse, in which riporci all the beautiful things I have around me and give me hope. In the movie there is a scene in which each player chooses a word that represents it. I choose it as the word Hope: hope of returning home soon to bring them together or at least hope to continue to have such wonderful friends, hope to do wonderful trip, hope to finish as soon as the university. Hope to be happy.
I believe that if everyone started to hope for a little more, maybe a little open space in our mind and the universe would be able to come in and offer us a chance of happiness.
