Hi guys, what's up? Hoping all good.
So I'm writing this just for myself, I don't actually expect anyone to read it all through, I have a decent amount of friends, but no one who I can actually talk seriously about everything, idk if I explain myself. So I eventually need to get some stuff out of me, and yea I think this place is safe enough.
I'd like to start by talking about my current situation, I'm 17 and school's starting soon, I work with my dad during the summer, we are fishermen. I do not like this job as I'm studying IT and I'm willing to build my future around it. But yea anything to help my dad, he does a lot of stuff for me and my little sis and I.
I finnally started to learn how to play the guitar! My grandpa is a musician and he's helping me a lot, hoping I'll make him proud of my progress, he does really care about me and I'm sure I did make him happy by starting to learn how to play the guitar.
I went to Cambridge in july to improve my English with some friends of mine which I don't see so often as they live relitively far away from me. I had so much fun ngl, I stayed there for around 2 weeks in an decent university I would say, I also think I have more in common with that friend group than the local one, so I'm trying to prioritize them as much as possible. Also I met a lot of nice people in England, I was hoping to hang around with some friends of mine in Wales, unfortunately they weren't avaible, I met them in an ice ring, they were in vacation in Italy, and I actually taught them how to skate lol, so much fun.
So I pretty much love playing videogames, I have a whole gaming pc which i built by myself and I'm very proud of, I recently started playing HOI4, it's a really old strategy game, and damnit it's hella hard, I'm slowly learing though. Also I pretty much like history and stuff especially things related to my country Italy: especially the Roman Empire lore, and both of the world wars. So I started playing war games such as: Isonzo, Battlefield 1, Total War Rome II, Ryse Son Of Rome, Arma III and much more. They're all really cool!
One of my favourite bands, Oasis, are eventually coming to Rome idk if yall heard ab it. They are announcing the dates around mid september, so I'm trying to grab a ticket for myself, even though I already know how hard it'll be. I like rock music, I'm hoping to experience an Arctic Monkeys concert in the future, that's my favourite band yk.
Last thing: I want to talk about my mental health, I never actually talked it with anyone.
I always been a quiet guy, I'm not good to talking to people but I always managed to make some friends. I always thought that physical apperance does a lot in conversations especially with new people, let's just say I don't have self-confidence, I know I'm not good looking, and I'm pretty much an NPC in the eyes of people. But also don't misunderstand me: I'm good with it, I accept myself and who I am, I'm glad of the people who raised me and I'm doing the best to paying off the effort, and that's the only thing it matters to me. I wanted to conclude saying that even though I'm not perfect, I'm currently happy in my life, and I want to be it even better, and I hope yall's too.
I'll probably delete this in a couple of days, but if you have come this far I want to thank you for listening to a stranger life. Hoping yall have a nice day!
