“The Proper False”




In my opinion “the proper false” can set their forms in women ‘s hearts, though not easily it depends how good are they to act. Even if women want to prevent to not get hurt. The perfectly wrong person can fake the exact opposite of what they are, showing you  that they are not wrong, and demonstraiting you that they are extraordinary. However even if close people to you, will alert you that, they are wrong, you won’t believe it, because you see the false picture of “the proper false”. Once they enter into women’s hearts it’s not simple  to get out. Nevertheless they have to open their eyes and see that they are actors and that they are perfectly false with them, whatever their objective will be, women have to be strong enough to say to them self that their heart deserves the best and fakness its not accepted. Though it’s sad to say, but there are a lot of “proper false” around, who fake to be what they are not and to deceive women that open their heart. Although in my opinion we have to listen to people that are close to us, and that know us well. Even though this experience is harmful most of human being need them to learn and develop. In my experience I have seen a lot of proper false  , in the beginning I didn’t realize it, but then comes the moment, when  reality faces you. With the time and the experience life has given to me, I have learned to avoid “the proper false” .“Life’s like photography, you use the negatives to develop”. And don’t forget that “You will never find the right person if you don’t let go of the wrong one”. I conclude with a quote from a very inspiring man “The only source of knowledge is experience”.

The duke Orsino










Orsino is the powerful Duke of Illyria, he is a bachelor, and the object of affection of Viola, but he's trying to make Olivia fall in love for him. The opening scene of the game gives us our first impression for the Duke and this opening passage tells us a lot about his character.

“If music be the food of love, play on; Give me excess of it, that, surfeiting,
The appetite may sicken, and so die.
That strain again! it had a dying fall:
O, it came o'er my ear like the sweet sound,
That breathes upon a bank of violets,
Stealing and giving odour! Enough; no more:
' Tis not so sweet now as it was before.” (1.1.1)
Orsino says to his musicians to "play on" because music feeds his desires. However, he never lets the musicians finish as he interrupts by saying, "Enough; no more; / 'Tis not so sweet now as it was before." This shows u show how powerful and passionate he is. 

The Twelfth Night




The duke Orsino sent Viola, who is dressed like a man, to Olivia to delivery a love message. The “man name” of Viola is Cesario, and when Olivia saw her/him fall in love. Instead Viola is in love with the duke Orsino, but he is in love with Olivia.

Book Review: As white as milk, as red as blood (A. D’Avenia)



            Leo is a boy of sixteen, he spends his quiet life and carefree, trying to avoid, whenever I knock on his door, the white that frightens him: silence, reflection, empty. Plays football, plays guitar and likes to turn on a motorbike. A bullet in the head fixed: the beautiful red-haired girl he sees every day in front of the school, Beatrice.
            Everything runs smoothly, until in his life bursts the young substitute of History and Philosophy, by definition "a concentration of cosmic bad luck": he is different from other teachers. To him, when he speaks, his eyes sparkle, and he speaks of dreams, projects. Leo then decides to get involved, to seek his dreams and pursue them. He sees one already, Beatrice.
            But get in the game means that not everything goes according to plan and this will involve falls and bad blows: and Beatrice has cancer. The world falls down on me, and the beautiful words of Professor mean nothing for him.
            The truth however is that, Leo teaches me with generosity, anger and with the ability to love, is that only when we are beaten you really grow. It's just in front of the pain that Leo becomes a man.
            This book is that interesting to read, because it speaks about teenagers and in them you can see yourself.

About me...


My name is Leonardo, I’m from Italy and I will attend the last high school year as a border student at North Broward. This is my first blog and I will post my English assignments.
I have decided to come overseas because I wanted to make a new experience and I have chosen Florida because of the warm weather. I'm glad to be at North Broward prep school and I’m sure that I will improve my English and know more about a different culture. 

Here in North Broward is a completely different life than in Italy, I was used to finish school at 2 o’clock in the afternoon and go home, here I finish at half past 3 and then I go to my dorm. This is only one of the aspects that changed my life, I think I will get used to this after some time. There are also positive aspects, I meet a lot of new friends, not only from the US but also from different other countries. This helps me so much to understand other cultures and I know that in the future this will help me in my work.
