How often things do not work out as we expected, planned, desired. We all have to cope with this in life. Lucky whoever has never been in such a situation…
Most of the times we find a way to leave the bad things behind us, even if it may take long time. On the other hand, some unpleasant situations stay with us for the rest of our lives… and we cannot do anything about it.
All in all, it’s a matter of maintaining control over our lives, not an easy task.
Control is a wonderful movie by Anton Corbijn, telling the troubled story of Ian Curtis and his band Joy Division. It’s all about keeping control, or accepting that we cannot achieve it…
The soundtrack is also very, very good…
Speaking many languages is great. I’d like to speak so many of them… and as of lately I’ve started tackling Russian…
On the other hand, many friends around the world tell me they’d like to speak Italian. Some of them even say that girls go crazy when you speak Italian, so… maybe you should try, too! I cannot but strongly recommend this Monty Pyhton’s Italian class… 
I didn’t vote for this ridiculous guy currently Prime Minister in my country… but many did I’m afraid… hope some of them started understanding, in these last few months, what’s going on in Italy and who the guy really cares about…
Just have a look at the Herald Tribune’s article for this latest, shameful episode of what may seem a soap opera but is in fact Italian politics.
I’m really sick of this all…
