Plan B, C, D... I love it! I love this sentence because I think it's a great example of optimism. The "Plan A" is failed? Don't worry, you can try again. Your mind and your hands can create other plans: B, C, D... and much more. But... what would happen if I finish the letters? I would say to myself: "Stay Cool Fra, now you can star with numbers." ;-) Have a nice day italki members. Bye

A photo This morning when I arrived at work I went to my balcony's office and I did a photo. You can see in this picture a piece of Cavalli square, the central square to Piacenza city. My office is located in a historic building to the 4th floor and so I can look this nice square from a good position. The red and white stand to the right of the picture are the Christmas market, it come here the first December's day and go out at the end of the month. In this market you can buy a lot of things: candy, wooden and Christmas gadgets, scarves, gloves, hats, necklaces, earrings, bracelets, candles and much more. Last week I bought a lot of Christmas paper bags to put in the gifts for my family and my friends... I love making Christmas gifts and you? :)

A typical Sunday Italian lunch It's not Sunday in Italy without the typical dish of "pasta asciutta" or "pastasciutta". The "pasta asciutta" is a dish where the pasta is cooked without broth and there is not a soap. Today I ate a very tasty pasta asciutta, more precisely I ate a typical plate of Bologna city: the "Tagliatelle al ragù". The ragù is an Italian souce mainly made with butter, oil, a chopped of celery, carrots, onions, meat chopped too, tomato souce, salt, pepper and red wine. Both the tagliatelle and the ragù were homemade, the my housband's mother is a wonderful cook! :D I wonted to share whit you this good plate so I have photographed it. Buon appetito to all! ^___^

Up... I did, today during the lunch I have seen my first movie in original language (with subtitles^^"). I have seen a Disney animated movie called "Up". It's a nice movie :-) I saw Up at the cinema in 2009 for the first time and the characters spoke italian, but today they have spoken English. I don't understad all the movie, but a good part of its. Is a good start, I think. I belive that Up is one of my favourite animated movies, I have loved the color of balloons, the story, the nature of caracters (Russell is a very cute child) and the strong link between Carl and Ellie... wonderful. Now, I'm ready to watch another movie in original lenguage, tonight I'll watch one of my favorite movie "V for Vendetta" a net change of style don't you think? ;-) Remember, remember the 5th of november... See you soon! Bye.

Goodnight Today is finish also. I'm very tired but I have a pinch of force to write some words in my notebook. This was my first day here, in italki and it was... mmm... strange I think, but I don't know why^^" Maybe because my mind returned at the school time and I'm feeling a big, old student in a small, young classroom. Classroom, school, theachers, books, english books, woman, white heir, tender smile... Yeee! Now I remember her name! Mrs. Borella, Mrs. Borella is the name of my english teacher when I went at school in 1995! I'm sorry Mrs. Borella, I'm very, very sorry... if only I had listened more carefully your lessons. Ok... is too late and I'm writing funny words. You think that I'm crazy :D Stop, tomorrow is another day :) Goodnight italki members, goodnight and dreams gold.

I want to try I'm thirty years old, and now I say stop! Now I want to improve (a lot... the street is long I think) my English. The first reason is the work, I need to learn English for my job, for my future, but there is another reason... I don't want more singing english song speaking kiwi melon, kiwi melon, na, na, na, looooove, mmmm, na, na, and other strange words :D I tell you the true... I feel a pinch of bashfulness because I know that I'm a goat in English but with your help I can do it... I think... I hope...
