Dato che volevo rilassarmi e che dall'ultimo post é passato quasi un mese (la fantastica recensione della Notte Degli Oscar, per chi non l'avesse letto), ho pensato che fosse un buon momento per buttare giù un paio di righe.
Da qualche giorno a questa parte é finalmente arrivata la primavera, la stagione della rinascita dopo autunno e inverno, e a me piace tanto. Oddio, a dire il vero, non ho una stagione preferita: ognuna ha qualcosa che la rende piacevole.
Come ho già detto, comunque, con la primavera la natura si ridesta. I primi fiori cominciano a sbocciare e, piano piano, gli alberi si riempiono di meravigliosi colori. Ritorna anche il sole e le giornate si allungano.
Anche nel mio caso la primavera ha portato qualcosa di nuovo, una nuova carica e una botta di ottimismo. Ultimamente, infatti, sono riuscito ad affrontare abbastanza (e sorprendentemente) bene il carico di lavoro universitario. Per ora, almeno.
In questi giorni ho, tra l'altro, ricevuto una bellissima notizia, che sicuramente ha contribuito molto alla ventata di positività a cui accennavo prima.
Finalmente ho un relatore per la tesi. Ad essere onesto, stavo davvero cominciando a preoccuparmi. E invece no. Proprio quando meno me lo aspettavo, ho ricevuto quella benedetta mail di conferma che mi ha davvero tolto un peso. Ora mi sento infatti più leggero :).
E, udite udite, ho pure trovato il libro da tradurre! Pazzesco!! Si tratta di un libro sull'arte della conversazione. D'altronde, cos'altro poteva trovare e scegliere un chiacchierone come me? ;);)
Sembra davvero una lettura molto interessante e "challenging" da tradurre: sono convinto che, tutto sommato, mi divertirò molto :).
Detto questo, per concludere questo cortissimo post, ci tenevo ad augurare a tutti Buona Pasqua (anche se non so quando pubblicherò questo post haha :) ).
A presto!! :)
-----------------
Let's begin with a short introduction: this was not the kind of Easter I'm used to, regarding especially the amount of food eaten. Yes, you got it right: this year, no feast and eating as if there's no tomorrow. Nevertheless, the food was delicious and this is what really matters together with being surrounded by great people such as (part of) my family :).
Since I wasn't in the mood for anything tiring or laborious -and considering it's been almost a month since I last posted something (the extraordinary review of The Oscar Night, for those of you who still haven't read it)- I thought writing a short post was the best thing to do.
Of course, as just mentioned, this collective rebirth includes, above all, Nature. In these days you can see flowers blossoming almost everywhere and the trees covered with beautiful colours. Also, days get longer and the sun starts shining more regularly.
And I must say I've been blessed with some of these "gifts": new energy and a big deal of positivity (needed this one way too much) reached me. This proves how I've been able to deal with Uni workload quite (and surprisingly) well lately. For now, at least.
And that's all for now! But I cannot leave without wishing everyone a Happy Easter (despite not knowing when this is coming out haha. In case it's after Easter, I hope you all had a lovely day :-) )!
See you soon!!

A few days ago, Spring finally made her appearance. As everyone knows, Spring is the season in which everything comes back to life. A sort of rebirth after Autumn and Winter, and I love it so much.
Even though, to be honest, I don't have a favorite season: each one of them gives me something unique and magical to appreciate.

This made the trip to Uni a lot easier ;-) |

But I'm sure a great deal of this optimism came from what happened a few days ago. I finally got some really great news: I have a supervisor for my thesis!!! I can assure after receiving that long-awaited mail I was bobbing on my chair and I went on dancing euphorically for quite some time :). Seriously, I was really stressed because of the lack of news in that sense. Now I can finally cross out this from my to-do list and focus on other not less important things.
And, last but not least, I found also the book to translate!!! Amazing!! The title is "Saber Hablar", which basically means this is a book about the art of conversation. Hey, did you really expect something different from a first class chatterbox like me?! ;-)
The more I'm going on with the reading, the more I'm falling in love with this book: it's something really interesting that I'm sure will teach me a lot. Translating it is going to be quite challenging, but, all things considered, I believe I'm really going to enjoy it a great deal :-).
