I was an exchange student. How do you know what is a dream if you never accomplished one? How do you know what is an adventure if you never took part in one? How do you know what is anguish if you never said goodbye to your family and friends with your eyes full of tears? How do you know what is being desperate, if you never arrived in a place alone and could not understand a word of what everyone else was saying? How do you know what is diversity if you never lived under the same roof with people from all over the world? How do you know what is tolerance, if you never had to get used to something different even if you didn’t like it. How do you know what is autonomy, if you never had the chance to decide something by yourself? How do you know what it means to grow up, if you never stopped being a child to start a new course? How do you know what is to be helpless, if you never wanted to hug someone and had a computer screen to prevent you from doing it? How do you know what is distance, if you never, looking at a map, said “I am so far away”? How do you know what is a language, if you never had to learn one to make friends? How do you know what is patriotism, if you never shouted “ I love my country” holding a flag in your hands? How do you know what is the true reality, if you never had the chance to see a lot of them to make one. How do you know what is an opportunity, if you never caught one? How do you know what is pride, if you never experienced it for yourself at realizing how much you have accomplished? How do you know what is to seize the day, if you never saw the time running so fast? How do you know what is a friend, if the circumstances never showed you the true ones. How do you know what is a family, if you never had one that supported you unconditionally? How do you know what are borders, if you never crossed yours, to see what there was on the other side? How do you know what is imagination, if you never thought about the moment when you would go back home? How do you know the world, if you have never been an exchange student?

Data Colloquio di Selezione

Ho saputo giusto una decina di minuti fa la data del colloquio di selezione: sarà l'8 novembre a Verona presso l' Istituto Piccole Suore di Sacra Famiglia alle 14.30. All'inizio si erano sbagliati dicendomi che era giovedì 4 novembre alle 15.30, così ho spedito un'email per chiedere lo spostamento del colloquio e poi ho dovuto spedirne un'altra per dire che era tutto a posto. Insomma ho fatto una bella figuraccia XD Ma infondo hanno sbagliato anche loro, quindi.. diciamo che siamo pari!!

Oddio non vedo l'ora di prendere parte al colloquio: so che meno di 24ore fa ero piena di dubbi e incertezze, ma forse avevo bisogno di una svolta come il colloquio di selezione per sentirmi di nuovo pronta per quest'esperienza  =)

Aprendo una parentesi, teoricamente posso provare a partecipare al bando di concorso della provincia di Trento che mette in palio delle borse di studio per il quarto anno all'estero. Speriamo bene.

Credo di avervi aggiornato su tutto.

Write You Soon,
