- “So, this is my life. And I want you to know that I am both happy and sad and I'm still trying to figure out how that could be.” ― Stephen Chbosky
We must not expect happiness. It is not something we deserve. When life goes well, it is a sudden gift; it cannot last forever.

Quelli che vogliono laurearsi senza studiare
1) la mattina non mi sveglio e se mi sveglio dico "studio dopo pranzo"
2) dopo pranzo dico "guardo i simpson e poi inizio"
3) dopo i simpson mi viene sonno
4) mi riposo un po' poi apro il libro e ho bisogno di fare merenda
5) si sono fatte le 6 è troppo tardi per iniziare e anche oggi studio domani...!!!

Sì. Ce l'ho fatta!

♪ Some dreams live on in time forever
Those dreams, you want with all your heart
And I'll do whatever it takes
Follow through with the promise I made
Put it all on the line
What I hoped for at last would be mine
If I could reach, higher
Just for one moment touch the sky
From that one moment in my life
I'm gonna be stronger
Know that I've tried my very best
I'd put my spirit to the testIf I could reach...♪
Reach

I keep my words
-"Se passo il lettorato di inglese, giuro che vado ad accendere un cero alla Gran Madre!!!"
Una promessa è una promessa, e va mantenuta.

Chiesa della Gran Madre di Dio, Torino

Due sono miei
Ancora non ho capito se il lettorato l'ho passato per una botta di fortuna pazzesca o per la provvidenza divina in seguito alla promessa fatta...

Gli esauriti da esami
2. Per tale motivo i tuoi capelli hanno perso ogni qualsiasi forma
3. Hai smesso di farti la barba tanto da far concorrenza a silente (x ragazzi)
4. Hai smesso di depilarti e sembri la versione più civilizzata di un orango (x ragazze)
5. Sui tuoi libri e quaderni sono disegnati simpatici fondotazza di caffè
6. Hai consumato ormai tutte le matite che avevi in casa
7. La tua scrivania è un campo di battaglia
8. Il tuo desktop è un sommario di schemi promemoria per cercare di farti entrare in testa quelle cose che proprio non ricordi.
9. Ogni angolo o mobile della casa è tempestato di post-it promemoria
10. Ti sei perso almeno una volta il cellulare, scoprendo poi che era sepolto sotto una pila di libri
11. Le tue dita sono coperte di macchie di inchiostro
12. Almeno una volta ti sei aggirato per casa come un deficente senza ricordare cosa effettivamente dovessi fare, venendo osservato come un alieno dai tuoi
13. Lasci tutto in giro dimenticandolo e puntualmente non ricordi dove l'hai messo (molte delle volte scopri di avere tali cose sotto il naso)
14. Il libro di testo ti segue perfino in bagno
15. Mentre parli al telefono con il tuo migliore amico non ti rendi conto di star tirando fuori frasi del capitolo 9, inspiegabilmente stai ripetendo
16. Sogni almeno tutte le notti il giorno dell'esame
17. Pur studiando, inspiegabilmente, le pagine che mancano alla fine sono sempre di una cifra esorbitante
18. Sul tuo calendario è segnato il countdown al giorno fatidico
19. Concludi ogni giornata dicendo "oggi non ho combinato nulla, domani dovrò studiare come un dannato" ma puntalmente non combini niente nemmeno il giorno a seguire.
20. Ti consulti con i tuoi compagni e non sai perchè loro sanno sempre tremila cose che tu neanche sapessi si dovessero studiare.
21. Hai sempre mal di testa.
22. La vista ti si appanna facilmente.
23. Posteggi il divano ogni 5 minuti
24. Hai sempre voglia di dormire...
25. Prendi a mangiarti le unghie o a grattarti come un forsennato.
26. Ad ogni invito ricevuto dai tuoi amici, pensi inesorabilmente, "noooo ci voglio troppo andare, ma dovrà passare prima l'esame"
27. Pensi anche molto spesso "quando accadrà questa cosa, tutto questo sarà già finito!"
28. Ogni giorno ti dici "non mi interessa, prendo anche 18, dopo tutto questo stress"
29. Hai il mal di schiena cronico
30. Tua mamma comincia a preoccuparsi perchè ti vede troppo pallido e ti incita a smettere di studiare per quel giorno (non sapendo che in realtà non stai combinando un cazzo XD)
31. Diventi insofferente alla gente che parla di esami
32. Diventi ancor più insofferente alla gente che invece esce a divertirsi
33. Crei bambole raffigurati i professori per far ricadere su di loro maledizioni
34. Vieni colpito da fame cronica da nervosismo e cominci a mangiare di tutto e in qualsiasi momento per il troppo stress
35. Fondamentamente sei fisicamente e spicologicamente ESAURITO

You know you're a translator when...
1- You get the same empty stare after answering the question "What do you do?" or "What do you study?"
2- People tell you "So... Translator... You just study a foreign language? You work as a teacher, right? What else do you do? How many languages do you speak?"
3- People ask you how to say something in a different language, because a translator is supposed to have learnt the whole dictionary by heart...
(Translator ≠ WALKING DICTIONARY)
4- You admit you suck at maths.
5- You know how to use Trados, Wordfast, etc.
6- Sleeping is not as important as deadlines.
7- You realise that you can't avoid learning new things all the time with each text you translate.
8- You learn to loathe gerunds and false friends.
9- You know Alicia Zorrilla.
10- You're aware of issues such as gender and political correctness, which no one around you seems to care about.
11- You frequently have nightmares in which you're chased by Saussure, Chomsky, Halliday or Pinker.
12- You find certain words, expressions or translations utterly amusing... Yes, you laugh at words.
13- You have fun translating proverbs or idioms literally, such as "putting was the goose".
14- You finally learn how to use proper punctuation.
15- You find yourself looking up a word in the dictionary and you know you've already looked it up a thousand times before in your life.
16- You have run out of insults because this peculiar word seems to be nowhere in the world, but in the text you need to translate.
17- You find out how much money you've spent in books, photocopies and dictionaries and you realize you could be a millionaire if you had saved up all that money.

23- You know the difference between PRO and traces, and ECM and subject/object control verbs.
24- You know the different countless types of Spanish polysemic "se".
25- Drawing trees is the worst thing that can ever happen to you, because it no longer means pencils, branches and leaves, but subject, tense phrase and wh- movement.
