I don't just want to imagine that this sweet moment is just about to end and then back to that hell of a school where one is forced to be serious with everyday life waking up so early and jumping on the train as early as possible inorder to catch up with the first lesson of the day. O My God! Can't we just take back the hand of time and begin afresh this beautiful summer?
This is all I have been thinking through in these few days in which I am beginning to think of returning home and getting set for the new academic session. The summer vacation has been awesome eventhough with mixed feelings of experience but it's been for me a wholistic experience which has added a lot of values to my life.
I expected the summer break right from the moment we started to make registrations for the summer exams and that is because I don't really like exam mood, it makes me unnecessarily over serious and have less fun, hehe. Well that is the period of my life that one can actually see me so serious and act like an adult, lolz.
Exams ended around the end of June and I was happy. When I got home after the last exam, I threw my book on the bed, removed my trousers and shirts and jumped on the cushion in the sitting room and held on to my video game pad and was on it playing my FiFA soccer game till around evening. The night was dedicated to calling those persons I had neglected their calls during the whole period of exams. How liberating it felt to be done with those loads, hehe.
Vacation was around the corner and I prepared myself very well. Being that it is summer and we were just coming out from the winter with the heavy wears. I had to go into the box and select my summer wears which had been lying there in the box doing nothing. They have been very lazy wears, hehe. The jackets had suffered so much in the very cold winter and now its time for them to repose a bit, at least for four months.
Vacation began on the 2nd of July and I travelled to Southern Italy called Paestum and specifically Capaccio Paestum. Its a spiritual house owned by the catholic church and I am here to enjoy and work as well. The good thing is that at least I get to earn some money before the end of the break. But the work here is killing, haha. This is why I have not actually been active enough in this month's challenge.
I have gained a lot from here and it feels like I should remain here and continue my studies. In fact some of the friends I have made here are encouraging me to transfer my study program here and remain here and not go back to Rome. Hmmm, it's been a difficult decision to make because two things are involved. It is either I stay and work and school which is going to be very tidious for me or I go back and study peacefully without working over there in Rome.
One of the Lovely souls
I am really thinking hard but my conviction is more on going back because most important for me right now is my studies and not the money. I have learnt to take things, once at a time inorder not to run into crisis. However, I really love these souls I have met here. They are just so caring and loving unlike those in Rome who are always busy and have no time for a foreigner like me who can't speak the language to their taste, hehe. Well, I am still thinking and shall decide later.
These days, the heat has not been so hot as it was around the middle of July and beginning of August. The rain that fell two days ago kind of calmed the weather and at least, I could sleep for the past two days without the air conditioner. But really, it got to a point that I desired the winter to begin soon enough, mamamia, the heat was terrible. The use of fan was never an option because it made things worst and air conditioners are used only in the rooms.
Around the areas we worked, the heat was like the fire from hell but we worked with joy and love. This is why I don't actually wish to end this whole sweet moment. I have met both young and old and things seem to be so perfect here. I think nothing about books but play more and laugh more which makes life so sweet, hehe. Very interesting is how I have been able to improve my speaking of the Italain language.
I think I have to pray that there be an eclips that will take the time stand by or take the time aback and make the summer begin afresh, hehe. What a beautiful moment it's been.
I am glad to finally participate in this last week of the @deemport August challenge in collaboration with the Scholar and Scribe community.
