I'm a wanderer based on the clouds. I'm waiting for the teletransportation to be invented, but in the meanwhile, I'm pretty pleased with wheels, trains and planes. I love direct people, gelato, snow, tan, americano coffee and running. I don't like easy things, asking for help, people who talk too close to your face, when my feet are cold, pink, long nails and mayo. My favourite quote is: "You must want something with all your strenght. Then, you must do it." Mae West

What you need (4 people)
– 2slices of garlic
– 3 spoons of oil
– chilli pepper
– 400 g spaghetti
– persil
– parmesan cheese
How to prepare:
Put the water in a big pot and wait until it boils.
Add a spoon of salt and as it boils, put the soaghetti vertically  and move them with a wooden spoon until they are completely covered by the water.
Let it cook for 8-10 minutes. Not more.
While waiting, put oil, garlic and chilli pepper in a pan and let it flavour for a couple of minutes at low fire. Pay attention not to let the oil boil.
Don’t forget to move the pasta sometimes, while it’s cooking. Otherwise, it will attach to the pan.
After the number of minutes written in the box (usually 8-10), drain the pasta and put it in the pan. Let it flavour for one more minute at low fire and serve with some persil and parmesan cheese.
Call your friend, your pasta is ready!

COOKING TIPS: PASTA

Now we need some more words on pasta. As an Italian eho is often abroad, I’ve seen and unfortunately also eaten a lot of weird dishes of pasta cooked in the wrong way. Here are my tips on how to make it good and easy.
  • don’t put pasta in the water before it boils
  • as the water boils, before putting pasta, add a spoon if salt
  • don’t let the pasta in the water for more than 8-10 mins, and always check the time written in the box. When you taste it, it doesn’t have to be soft, and you need to feel its consistence under your teeth
  • when pasta is readu, drain it well
  • never add any ketchup or mayo to the pasta, please
  • for the sauce, remember that simplicity is the best ingredient. If you don’t have anything at home, a spoon of oil, parmesan cheese and lemon or pepper is enough

FUNNY PICTS

“The world is like a mirror; frown at it, and it frowns at you. Smile and it smiles, too” 
Herbert Samuels

The more we get closer to the end of our studies, the more we realize that life is not as easy as we expected. Finding a job is very hard, and finding someone who pays for your work is even harder. What is the right decision to make? What should we do to stop asking money to our parents and earn what we need for living?

Neither me, nor professors and experts in economics have the answer. We spend so many words analysing and commenting the problem  over and over, but sometimes, what we need is only a smile.

Here’s a new section that will make you in a good mood. Whatever happens 🙂
