Health

Hey world :) I'm sorry, I didn't write articles because I was very busy, here at school we are doing the period of recovery for the students that have bad grades in any subject, so students that are good at school must explain to these students all the topics of the year, so we must study a lot, like 300 page by subject, and all days we must " teach" to this guys :D Well I want to write about health in Italy making a comparison with America because one day you know I'd like to live in America so I must know the rules of health :)
In Italy if you are sick you must go to your family doctor, that you choose near your town and you go there for prescription and for  visits of little importance, you go there if you have a cough or influenza or other little problems, or you go there if you want do a special visit by other doctors. This visit are free, you don't pay this doctors but they have a salary of about 4.000 euros. If you go by other doctor, visits aren't cheap! Is the opposite are too expensive and usually when you go by this doctors, you don't have the answers that you would like to have. Usually this doctors are surface and always they seem angry! I don't know why but for this I'm afraid from them! Some times ago at tv people talked about a doctor that in an operation has left a gauze in the belly of the sick! They are crazy! A lot of doctors pay their teacher to switch some exams or they know the right people to overtake the students that are better then them, so when you go to do a visit you can find a bad doctor. But not all doctors are so bad, sometimes if you are lucky you can find a real doctor. When you go to do a special visits by these private doctors, as a minimum you pay 100 euros and often this doctors  visit you for 5 minutes. But differently from USA if you go to the hospital you don't pay nothing, but when you go out from the ospital all the visits that you do you must pay a ticket for them. Like if you broke your elbow and doctors put it on a plaster when you must remove it you pay 50 euros. So isn't true that in Italy health is free! And drugs are expensive! While when I travelled with my parents in Danmark and Norway I had otitis and I was very sick, so we went by a doctor and we tought that we would pay a lot of money but at the end of the visit and with the drugs we paid around 20 euros, If I remember right in their money are 27 or 30! This doctor was very nice and good and patient, because he explained to them all in english and he repeated all what we didn't understand.
In America if you broke your elbow you pay around 500$ if you have insurance, without this you pay 7.000$
Well I don't know if in America doctors are good or not, but I hope so!

Italian food

Hey :D I'm sorry that I yesterday I didn't write some articles but I was busy :) since that I have written only about bad things of Italy, I'm going to write about the best thing of italy, food! All know that italian food is very good and there are a lot of types of dishes. Pasta, Pizza are know everywhere, but there are other foods that are good like Pasta and Pizza, I love Pizzoccheri, they are a hot dish with pasta of cereals, vegetables, potatoes and a lot of cheese, Pizzccheri are cook in the oven and they are very very very good :) are typical of Veneto and Trentino alto Adige :)

Other food that I like is Ossi Buchi :) They are  veal shank that is cooked with his bones and you eat the meat and the pulp inside the bones, is so delicious but not all people love this kind of meat

Oh! I forget ! Polenta! This is a type of flour that  you cook in a pot very slowly and at the end it is like a purèe but more substantial, usually it is eat with Gorgonzola ( a tipical italian cheese that is soft ) or Brasasto ( are pieces of meat with souce ) or you can eat only it :) 

In Italy is a tradition eat together, we aren't used to eat fast food or eat watching tv because we think that is a moment where a family must stay together and talk about problems or only have fun together, eating good food. :)

We can't be ourselves

Well, today I want write about a bad custom that italians have. When you are walking on a street you can't be yourself, because if you are wearing strange clothes or you are too tall or fat, people observes and judges you.  Everyone is judged by people but they don't critic themselves! We think that we are perfect.. So in the free time we observe other people and we compare ourself with some other. I live in a little city and here everyone knows everyone, so you can't go out with a new friend that your grandfather is already  watching you out of the windows. When I go in a big city or abroad I can see that people wear what they want and people are not scared about that. I don't like this attitude that we have. Because I know that is annoying this, you can't do what you want because you are scared by  people's judgments. This is very frequent between old and young people or between teenagers. I'm a teenager and I know that expecially girls observe clothes and hair of other girls to be the best dressed. But is not right, because this can make sad someone. Few days ago a girls killed herself because her friends have fun of her and she was so sad that she died. People must think about themselves not about other people's life.

Italy, ooh Italy...

Hello world :) Here are 6:42 pm :) and I'm hungry :) I was watching tv and I saw a program that says " Opinionists are the new stars of tv", Italy! Why are you so.. so... stupid? Wow here people think only tv, fight on tv and tv! If you are in this magic box you will  be fantastic and popular and you can have the world in your hands. But why? Because a lot of people are so full of themselves that they become different in front of a camera to be famous. Here politics don't discuss about problems but they struggle on tv to do caos. But is so funny see people in tv that argue and fight in tv programs? When I see this I can only think " Why? Why we are in the hands of this men? And Why are influenced by multimedia? " And the other thing is: why tv makes women so stupid? I'm a girl but I'm not stupid, maybe I think :D but women  in tv have the fame of stupid gender that show only their body and not their brain, with  some exceptions. Maybe women think that pretending to be stupid they can be more famous? I don't think, we must show themselves for special discoveries or good deeds. I hope that one day  women will talk about science and not about sex and tatoos.

What about Italy?

Well hello world :) Here are 9.10 am :) And is snowing !! I'm in the bad and I'm looking out of windows and I can see snow thata fall down :D Is so nice, I love snow. But the way I'm here to talk about the 18 years :) In italy is an important year for teenagers that become adults. But 18 years mark a change so strong? Mhhh, is not true that when you are 18-year-old you are adult. Here you can be 18 or 15 or 23 and is the same thing. All teenagers wait for this moment but the only thing that change is that you can drive your car that in America you can drive when you are 16-year-old. But here nobody trats you differently because you are in age of majority. The dream of " when I'm eighteen I can do everything I want" is destroyed. You can't do what you want, because parents treats you like a child and in the world noboty accepts for a job, so you are " obbligate" to go to university or stay at home on your sofa and watch films. I don't think that is a good idea, infact when I'm eighteen and I finish the hight school I will go to university 3 years in Italy and after I will go abroad so I can work or study better. So here is not so exciting be 18-year-old because you can do oly the things that you do when you was 17-year-old. I'm so sad about this, but I will travel so Italy is not my problem :D

Italian students should be the future?

Hey guys :) I'm writting this article because here in Italy people says : " students must and will be the future" and after this schools are very bad and the buildings fall down. I read a lot of newspapers' articles about that to gave to you nubers. I don't know if that I will write is the same in your country. Italy is a state of old people that works until they are 67-years-old and they don't want that young people work. It is strange true? When I travel I see a lot of 18-year-old that work and here I see only 40/50-year-old. And why that? Because pepole doesn't trust in the teenagers, they think that we are only irresponsable kids that want only play at videogames or spoil walls with paint. I don't think so, because a lot of 16-year-old have good ideas and they aren't listened to. But why older people think that we are " stupid" ? Well, I think that there are a lot of reasons:
1) maybe because a lot of teenagers are irresponsable so adults make a soup of this
2) maybe because schools teach a lot of informations about subjects but they don't teach life
3) because they want do all themselves
4) maybe because is too expensive for industries or enterprises take a beginner?

Well for the 4th we can't do anything because we are not in the politics area :)
for the 3th is the same we can't steer their brain

and the 2nd is very true!! In Italy only few teachers teach life :) Sorry for the repetition :) I think that they must put in our brain that we live in a world not in a paper box, we are the future and if they don't do the our guide, how we can learn? Maybe because in Italy there aren't money for the schools. Goverment blocked one billion four hundred thousands euro for the schools  because this money serve for other questions. But is right? How we can be the future if we don't have the heating in classrooms? I don't know it, and this year,   politics think that is better give money only to the best schools so the unlucky schools will close, but there isn't a plan of choise for that, so it is place in the case.
And well for the 1st is true this too.. because adults don't divide teenagers from teenagers, they make a sum of them and don't think that someone can have something  to say.

Well I speak a lot :) We are probably bored :) See you Esperia

Rubbish

I think that at  first  i talk about a problem that interested Italy and other poor areas in the world. This morning at school my Science teacher spoke about a very big problem of Italy, that scares me. He saw a tv programme that deals with : where italian rubbish disapear? And he decided to talk about this with us. the trash that disappears is  not all trash, only that is recyclable.  In fact our recycling industries are going to close because they don't have enough rubbish to be rerused.   We pay to dispose of rubbish and we don't finish of  it in Italy but poor countries buy this trash to take it in their country to dispose of it there. But all know how this litter must be disposed? I think not because I didn't know too. I realised that trash must be separeted in different kind of litter. For example plastic, there are: normal plastic like battle of water, plastic of drug, plastif of industries, plastic of hospital ( my teacher said... think that you can have a pen that is make with plastic of the bottle that contained human excrement), plastic of farm. This type of plastic contains different substances that come in  into contac with our body. A lot of toys  for children are made with this recycled plastic, and a lot of them contain carcinogens. But is not the notice that will most scare you... People that matter this rubbish live with this, and they work to dispose of it 12h of day and they have a wage of only 3.5 Euros. They are very poor but not only because they don't have money but they are poor of lives, they don't know ,or they pretend , that they have the certain death, because they breathe a lot of dangerous substances. And to continue they wash and  merge this plastic, but the water that they use for this goes in to  theyr rivers that irrigate their rise crops and after the products are sold all over the world. So you can eat rice that contain polluted substances. Last but not last, a lot of people import parts of pc or other technologies  and they broke this with their hands without any protections. Child are black hands but they are not dirty. All this shouldn't be allowed bu authorities!

Is in italian because I don't find it in englis.. se the video without listen :D I resume it up :D
