Money... For dope?

Finally my pay for Montescudaio excavation has arrived!
What can I do with these 400€?
- A trip around the world?
- Opening a drink stall on Copacabana beach?
- Making up the Italian finances?
Naaah! A new pair of Birkenstock is enough! The rest will incraese my "Norway fund"!

I keep on with my English class... Mr. Phillips is a very good teacher but I'd like to study more grammar instead of doing conversation everyday!
He's the only native speaker between us who are all Italian mother tongue speaker... He corrects every grammar or pronunciation mistake we do but we always use few words for communication! I don't think these kinds of lessons could be enough to learn English!
Fortunately I have my "parallel conversations" with Andreas even if we haven't been meeting since past wednesday because he's under stress @work!

Wednesday evening I'm going to see "Waiting for Godot" (in Italian:-/) @ Jerzy Grotowski theatre in Pontedera and Thursday will be time for Sigur Ros gig!!! I can't wait!!!

Tons of different things are in my head now... Maybe this is the reason why I can't study anything! I have been preparing a stupid exam since September, an exam which I could prepare in few days before my degree... But it seems that now my brain is irremediably fried!!
Oh my!


P.S. About the title of this post: I've not gone crazy... That's only a little refer to my beloved Daniele Luttazzi!!!

Life...

... Is always the same here in Fornacette!
Every day I go to Pisa to attend my classes...
Tuesday and thursday I have the english course (But past thursday I missed it because my friend Matteo graduated in the afternoon @the same time I had my class: WOOOH OOOH!!! A new unemployed archaeologist!!! Congratulations Maaaatttttyyyy:-D LoL!!!), some meeting with friends, my turn @La Tienda (the fair trade shop in Pontedera)...
The newest (Oh Matt please tell me: does this superlative exist or I've just invented a neologism? Is it "most new"?:-) thing in my life is Andreas...
We meet twice a week for practice our english and italian... Well, he usually starts his speach with few italian words and then finishes always in english! That's good for me, not so much for him!
It's really difficult for me to speak english. I always miss the right word or when I have it I make mistakes with verbal tenses and other grammar stuff...:-(
We met today in the afternoon for the third time... We have to speak about everything we want, but, considering my usual shy behaviour with people I'm not in familiar terms with, he has to do a hard work trying to keep the conversation, finding new subjects to talk about and so on because I don't collaborate so much:-/...
Anyway I'm sure that keeping on with our meetings I'll be more communicative and his Italian will get better!
Besides our "linguistic affair", he seems to be a funny guy...
...And last but not least he's cute, blond, with blue eyes...;-) LoL

Friends if you read:
-Ilaria-> look @ the "just three words" thread on the Koc forum, someoene is missing you!!!
-Matt-> why haven't you told me that "yard" is a very old fashioned word? I used it lots of time writing to you!!!
