I drank True Blood and I got Lost

A curious thing happened to me a few months ago and keeps happening since. I love watching series. Now I watch episode after episode, enjoying every scene in the original version, and I can't get enough! Starting from Glee, to 10 things I hate about you, The Vampire Diaries, True Blood, and recently I re-discovered Lost. At the same time, though, I'm realizing that I spend less time reading books, novels, even newspapers... and this is bad - I'm really concerned about it. It's just that images, animated images and turns of the camera, lines, soundtrack and many other features of series (as well as films) attract me more than written words, which I never thought could happen to me. I've always been a hungry reader since I was a child, always went to the library, fascinated by the millions of stories waiting for me to be read...and now I'm just a series-addicted! I "have to go back" (quoting Jack from Lost eheh) and don't forget the magic of books.

Hungry of culture!

Summer's not coming to an end yet, but I feel like it is... I don't know, maybe after my holidays in France and then - I haven't told you - those to the seaside in Italy (where I met some friends of mine from other places), the time has come of opening books, checking things about University, the courses I will attend, maybe because I can't wait for classes to begin! Of course after a month or two I will say the opposite, but for now I feel like this. :) I wanna do a lot of things, even out of university...like learning Spanish on my own, subscribing to a movie magazine, reading new books, watching new films... I'm hungry of culture! Probably I should relax now that I can, but I'm so curious! Lately I've been "creating" a personal theory about my personality: I've got some recurring "diseases". The first is that I'm envious. Of others, of others' life...and it'd be better if I stopped being so. The second is that I'm anxious. A lot!!! I think that's my biggest problem. Not only am I anxious for the duties I have to fulfil, exams and all that stuff, but also for the time, which runs inexorably, and I'm afraid I won't have the time for all the things I'd love to do...a little crazy, ah? Keep reading this blog, though, please.:)
