Starting on reflections

Hi everybody!

Sorry if you haven't heard from me since ages, but after Christmas holidays I have been studying a lot for the exams of this semester - think like anyone of us:)

You came to my mind many times because I often wanted to tell you how many wonderful and interesting things I did, read about and came up with during this time. Unfortunately I hadn't always internet service available.


Today, just a little time to let you reflect on an accident that strucks me strongly: Kenia internal fights between kikuyu and kalenjin. After what happened in Rwanda in 1995, once more the economic interests of the politic lobbies and the local people's poverty bring the mass to start cruel fights one against the other. To have yourself an idea of what is the situation in Kenia right now, watch the film Hotel Rwanda (2004).

Without traying to make a comparison, as far as internal disorders are concerned, here in Italy we have a lot of news to discuss about. I'm sorry to see how foreign journalists describe our current situation. I don't appreciate the superficial tone used. The failure didn't start few months ago, when the government changed. Corruption, injustice and economic crisis need time to root in a country.
I'm very angry. In particular when I watch Mastella on tv. He's treated like the guest star of all political talk shows, as his words still should dare our attention; quite probably, he earns money to go there and tell us about his and other politicians' crimes. This way, he's found another way to spend citiziens' money, after he (and other politicians) deceived Italians. Some of us really trusted them, but their personal interests were more important than the public welfare. Sad, very sad.

Tell me what you think and how you are. Hope and wait for better news,
hugs

Dear Zara! How are you? I'm terribly busy with my exams ..I hope to survive to see you all in the next semester!
I just read the message you left on my blog..Diritto del Lavoro was not so difficult, the professor is nice but she wants you to know everything about a subject, I mean, she likes details and she's quite obsessed with "i contratti collettivi". The only advice I can give you is: try to study the whole book!
Good luck!

ps: I don't have any idea about when the English courses will start..I had a look in Dipartimento but I didn't see any message from Professor Taylor or Busà.I hope to find some information in Bloggingenglish otherwise it will be difficult for us to attend lessons..
