Margui Speaks Up

This is the next thing I am gonna tackle as soon as I can. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EQUkkTcrgvs I heard Radu Lupu perform it in a lunar , liquid way, such as the bird was in fact a jelly fish. They say that Aldo Ciccolini is extremely good at playing that, making it look like a "colibri", a hysteric, brainless bird , as a prophet bird like the phoenix is supposed to be. I would like to let it emerge that the second part actually is the bird's prophecy of prosperity, and let the two side-parts be mysterious, nasty and smoky as they deserve to be. In the first and last part is just an unintelligen and witched bird - and the God is not yet/no more speaking through it. This is a typical "easy" piece that it is extremely easy to play with arrogance and impotence. I find the end spectacular - extremely difficult . Good luck!

OK, so, a friend of mine suggested the following strategy to meet potential partners. I like it because it takes a scientific approach. It nothing more, nothing less than an algorythm . Go in a right pub, at a right hour, where the definition of right pub is a pub where you have lots of people of your target age at the right hour is the hour where there is a peak of crowd - not too early, not too late. Take two drinks, or the amount of alcohol which makes your defences and your social shame lower, without letting you drunk. You know that limit. I know that limit - [censored for secuirity reasons]. Be sure to take 3 girl-friends woth you, if you are a girl, or one boy-friend with you, if you are a boy. If you are a girl [boy's part is the complementary, and easily deductable], look around, and perceive who is looking at you. If you like him/her, proceed to the so-called eye-fucking phase , where you sustain the sight. If you do not like him/her, just put you sight away. I would nev...

Manga. Mi manga: un po' di festa, un po' di intimità. Tuttavia, quando stava per essermi data la possibilità to satisfy my needs, here it comes - the manga called DeathNote. A friend made reference to it over a chat: I have had sporadic episodes of you-tube addiction in the past, in a period in which I felt lonely and out of place and I used to watch and watch little sketches and comedies at youtube (Monthy Python, the Italian Luciana Littizzetto in Chetempochefa , Paolino Ruffini from Livorno) until 1am to turn my brain off - but not much more. I hate computers. To keep it short, I watched 14 episodes of this stuff in a row, for a total of 5 hours withoit drinking or moving from my chair. It was terrible. Note that each episode last more or less 20 min and I had to confirm my interest in the manga-cartoon every half-episode, by clicking on the relevant YouTube link. And it's not finished. Yesterday, Friday 20th, I still sat down albeit very sleepy and watched the follow...

I have read Les enfants terribles by Jean Cocteau , in French, and just finished it. It is a terrible, horrible, symbolistic, heavily poetic book. It makes the reader full of disgust and macabre understanding at the end. It has an explicit trait of The great Gatsby (a death on a sport-car) and of Madame Bovary (poison at the end! To exit a difficult narrative situation). It evocates very poetic images: the "boules de neiges qui etoilaient le mur", tears which slip into retracted lips, and come out again, as new tears from the mouth. Cocteau is able to describe the walk of this girl as "heavy, light, flying" and to give you the impression that you are really understanding what that means. . Les enfants terribles is the right, insightful title. These are the terrible children you see (or you have been) who torture animals. The "vierge sacrée", the protagonist, the "genie-de-la-chambre"-priestess Elisabeth tourtures and dominates all her peers,...

[This is a so-called "thinkpiece" requested by a recruiter - I wrote it in 12 min. more or less] "Is the nation’s interest in celebrity an enjoyable distraction from everyday life or an unhealthy obsession?" Celebrities are to be admired, followed and cherished by the so-called “ordinary people”. This is what the word “celebrity” means: “well-known”. Therefore, we might accept as unavoidable the fact that people are interested in stars, be they actors, politicians, or singers. However, how far this interest goes and which aspects of stars’ life it covers, is a very important issue to consider. I think that the best way to approach the problem of people’s strong interest in celebrity is to assess the effect of it and to work backwards. First, we need to consider that celebrities are regarded as models of behaviour. This is because a “VIP” is supposed to be happy in life, and all people want from life is usually to achieve happiness. Therefore, emulating the...

Global widespread panic The God had heard your say The storm came on the way The dance of clouds was manic The forest became darker Worms came out to the rain And well before the pain You heard the crack of thunder «Farewell! Farewell!» You’d told her «I shan’t see you any more» She fainted on the floor, No reason to live further «Farewell!» She was your love «Farewell!» She had been yours The forest and the God Had lost one of their doves She is dead – her pain is yours now Whenever there’ll be rain You’ll hear her crying whisper Which will drive you insane

When you are about having sex, you shall protect your body and you MUST protect your spirit. I n my view, the physical act in itself may not particularly incisive, as it contains something phisiological which reduces it to a tender, endearing, sef-caring activity. I once experienced that, and the act passed through my mind innocently and rapidly. I heard someone saying that a man in its twenties shall have sex with the woman he dates, because it is somehow "natural". However, sex acquires a superior human meaning when human brain is involved. A friend of mine, a chemist, insists on saying that the particular conformation of female brain makes women less emotionally resilient and this is why they e.g. suffer more from breakups. Well, I think this is bullshit. But I know what obsession is. I have lived my life having my boyfriends as my best friends ever, because the compassion and solidarity could pass through the words and through the hands at the same time. Therefore, I ha...

I have seen today a so-called academic environment where sharpness intelligence and personality do not receive any kind of incentives in terms of academic reward (read MARK). With the terms above, I mean participation to the problem, interest, finding oneself inside the issue, putting some brain in speaking about it and some good human heart.It is useless to enter the merit of the intercourse i had there. But my emotional reaction to that attains its absolute worth because it deals with intellectual frustration.The student environment is poor at the beginning of the year, and this because the subject, The field is a kind of social science, is usually not the one that the most endowed individual choose: many go there because they wish to "have a degree" (with which advantages, besides fertility decline?).These perspective students, fortunately, have not so high survival instinct to think that they are anyway wonderful, excellent and bright (vs. Angloamericans. I bet this concu...

Imagine you are gifted with three tickets for a good-quality classical music concert taking place the next day. You take one for yourself, you have no family, no boyfriend, none you shall assume would be surely pleased to go. You start looking for people not to throw away the tickets. Hours passes.Then you try modern methods and use mailing lists. Miracle. Twenty people manifest their onterest for those tickets. You decide that the best way for candidates to selecte themelves is to set a price for the tickets, so that also your magnanimous action can generate a little income. You also know that the economic recipe for an excess in deman is highten the price. How do you set the price? If you have studied humanities and/or you do not really know trivial human nature you will be do like I did - you imagine how much you yourself would happily pay, in order to have that ticket. Then you add a markup from zero to nEuro depending on the risk of not being able to sell that you want to take upo...
