Little Queenie of the Booth

{Soundtrack: Limp Bizkit- Hold on}

Second week of introductory courses is now gone. Yay, we're having a long weekend because tomorrow's classes were called off. What is a bit less pleasant is that this is most certainly going to be the last bit of free time we're getting until June, apart from Easter and Christmas of course. This implies I'll have to try and do things like going to the hairdresser's or go and look for the outfit for my graduation (still planned for November) and hopefully find it... unless I want to show up in torn jeans, purple Dr Martens and my beloved Jamiroquai t-shirt. Well, whatever. Happiness is what truly counts, and the feeling I'm learning a bit every day is as rewarding as shopping could never be. (and if I dare to say so, it's because it's true. *lol)
I get back knackered in the evenings and I barely have the energy to get things ready for the next day and give a last, quick look at the papers but it feels so freakin' exciting...
I got thrown in the booth along with the *CSI S. Leonardo mob* -as we love to call ourselves- and we did surprisingly well in our first proper attempt to interpret simultaneously. I was like on cloud nine and couldn't believe my ears whilst doing that thing as mechanically as I never thought I would do for the first time to begin with.
By the way I'm madly in love with the mob, they're just as crazy as I am and I've also elected my personal guru for the time being, i.e. the craziest one among all of us. We're already starting to plan a get-wasted-every-night tour for... we don't know when but what we know is that it's going to be fun ^_^. {Fra, se mai leggerai sta pagina, sappi che sei te la guru [di stamminchia, ça va sans dire]!}

really really ridiculously...happy.

{soundtrack: We are the Pipettes - (Pipettes)}

I'm feeling ridiculously happy and excited about the *brand new shiny era* of my life that is starting right now. I hadn't felt as happy, excited, proud and motivated as this year for a long time, and I'll do everything in my due power to make this feeling last... forever, or at least for as long as I can.
The first introductory class for the Master's Degree courses this afternoon blew me away... the head of department was extremely harsh towards us ('There are fifteen of you... but I can't assure everyone that they're going to reach the final exam at the end of next year.') but I appreciated her honesty and it's boosted my motivation even more, if that's ever possible.
I so feel that this is the right place for me and the right time, I just want to make the most out of it and build up the basis for my future career... and I am immensely grateful for all the additional strength and support I get on a daily basis from my family and my beloved friends. Most of them live a long way away from here, but despite that they never fail to make me feel they're there for me, no matter what happens.
I am SO indescribably happy.
