A Friday like Thousands Mondays My body still doesn't feel the week-end is coming. Actually, I have not a real week-end since months and when, finally, I'll have the chance to relax a bit I think I will fall unconscious for days! Plus, today I feel more unuseful than ever... I work in a company, but I'm not employed by them, and I'm waiting for the day they'll finally decide to hire me. I do all my best every day to prove how good I am in my job. Actually, I do more than I should have to, hoping that my perseverance and diligence will help me to convince them that I'm their person. I'm waiting since 7 years... is it enough to stop hoping? I'm feeling like I'm going nowhere. I'm stuck in the middle between an "happy ending" and "ok, I give up" every single day. I've tried to find something else, but it's like there is nothing outside from me. It's like I'm doomed to stay in that middle I hate. I know I shouldn't cry. There are people out there looking for a job - every kind of job, literally - and finding nothing. I have one and it's a good one, even if my pay is one of the poorest I've ever received. I shouldn't cry, but I'm still feeling frustrated.

CONFESSION OF A SHOWHAOLIC :D

Yeah, I have to confess you a secret: I'm completely addicted to tv shows!
I'm watching several titles at the same time and sometimes I see more than 5 episodes in a row. It depends about the show.
If I like it very much, I can spend all night watching episodes, and I infected by this disease my 15 yo daughter too. Oops, I did it again! :D

I'm here to talk about a new show I discovered some days ago. Lucifer!
I'm following the Italian programming and I watched just the pilot by now, but I loved it immediately, from the first frame I saw!

This show it's about - obviously - Lucifer (Morningstar, btw) who, tired about the Hell and about his Dad forcing him to be The Bad Guy, decide to fled away from Hell and live on Earth, among and like a human being. 

It's ironic, sagacious, lively and entertaining! I love it! 

Is someone watching the same show and want to talk about it?

Are you addicted to tv shows too?

Which tv shows are you watching to in these days?

Talking vs. Speaking English Hi there! I'm new to this world and it's my first time with a discussion in the notebook, so, please, be kind. :) What I would want to share is one of my biggest problem with learning languages and speaking them. Especially with English, which is my favourite foreign language. I think my written English it's not so bad, in according to what some people I have chatted with have said about it. My problem comes when I have to talk. While I'm chatting, or writing, I can even think in English. I'm very good at that and I've almost lost the habit of having to translate from Italian, using a certain vocabulary and/or slangs, sometimes. When I have to talk my brain stops, and I go back to school time, when I was in front of the English teacher and I had to translate "Il gatto è sotto al tavolo" trying to remember which was the word for gatto and so on... It upsets me, and makes me mad with myself. I become frustrated and I lose the will to talk. It's kind of a lock inside of me that makes me loose all my knowledge. Is there out there someone with the same problem? How did you fix it or How are you trying to fix it? Correction: the title should have been Writing VS Talking (Sorry :D)
