The graduate

Yesterday no work!
My littlest cousin graduated, so we went to Venice to be by her side in this so important moment of her life.
So, Venice, the sun, the family, a graduation, well it was a perfect day...

I really love... (February 2014)

A sunset in February
We're about to finish February! Another month is going to go away!
Here everything is fine: I'm getting used to my new alarm clock, to my new work, even if I'm still enjoying my afternoons with my photography teacher, I'm spending time with my Mr thinking about future....
Here's what makes me terrible happy in this month:
1. My early mornings: I see dawn every day, and let me tell you, it's worth! It's worth having my alarm clock sets at 6 a.m. and see the sun rising
2. My new "job": sometimes I'm desperate because at first sight I understand nothing, but if I take my time I understand something (I'm going to learn how to use SAS), in my mind I think I'm going to learn a new language (even if it's a little weird....it's full of ";, &, %, $, @,...", cool, isn't it?)
3. A new little boy that is born 12 days ago...well he totally stole my heart!!!he's soooo little, he looks at you in a so funny way, and he has the littlest hands and feet that I've ever seen! I think babies are miracles, and they really are!
4. Sunny fresh days
5. My camera and all the things she can do
6. Longest days!!!that means in some weeks I can start running!!!
7. All the flowers that are blooming in this month
8. This blog Comme un lait fraise, "A place where recipes, polaroids and memories are safely kept", do I have to add something more? :)
9. Having booked a flight to Amsterdam with my Mr (soooooo happy!!!!!!)
10. Evenings on sofa with Mr

Something like Valentine's day

Happy Monday!!!
On Sunday afternoon Mr and I went out to visit Vicenza, that is a city next to where Mr and I live.
It's a medium city, it reminds me Padua (where I live), and it has a lot of buildings built by Palladio.
The weather was fine, the sun was shining, and we were looking for an afternoon to spend together, just the two of us...we bought a book of Robert Capa, a lavender soap, and I had a "Fogazzaro cafè"...well... take a look...
Caffè Fogazzaro, one of the best cafe I've ever had!
How was your weekend?
Hope everything was great!

I really love my bicycle, I really love my bike

Thank you soooo much for your kind comments on my last post!
The new job is fine, I have to wake up in the morning very early, and every morning I see dawn.
Well, I feel tired, but very happy!
About the job....you know, the very first period in a new job is weird: you have to know all the colleagues, you have to learn a lot of things, but is exciting! :)

About my photography class, well, our teacher gave us another homework, last week, we had to take photos of bicycles...






Happy weekend my dear friends! Hope you had a great Valentine's Day!

Signed!

....oh yes!!!!
I now have a job! wait, at the moment is just an internship, of 3 months.
The firm talked about employment contract, but for me, for now is just an internship. Of 3 months. I don't want to make some illusions. Just reality, and present. (Now they are interesting....)
I have to work from Monday to Friday from 8 a.m. to 2 p.m.. Isn't it great?
So, starting from next Monday, I can say "Oh no, Monday again!", but I'm so so so so so happy for having a work, that what I really think will be.... "It's Monday, and I'm going to work!!!la la la la la..."
I found this job, thanks to the course of SAS that I attended in July in Trieste.
Well, I'm going to use SAS, that is a statistician software, everyday.
I have to help my boss to develop a project in healthcare.
Well, this is exactly what I studied.
I couldn't be more happier, even if it's just for 3 months. (Of course I hope with all my heart for a real employment contract....and please finger crossed for me!!!)


And....what about photography?
Well, I think I have to thank soooooo much my camera and her skills!
And this blog!!!!
It's thank to my camera, this blog and of course you, if I didn't get mad in these months.
My camera gives me the opportunity for being creative, for putting a little bit of stardust in my days and in my life, just changing the perspective.

My blog gives me the opportunity to share with you all this.

And you....well, you're probably the best part of all this!Every single comment is so important to me!
I have to very "close" blog-friends, 2 ladies that always read my posts, always leave a comment, ladies that are almost like me, for what I see from their blogs....
If I would live in North Carolina, probably I would have start to be the assistant of this wonderful lady, I would go running with her in the afternoons, I would snuggle her wonderful cats, and we probably (hopefully) would become best friends, because you how these things go....
If I would live in Germany, probably I would start to attend some yoga classes with this amazing lady, I would take some photos of her outfits, and I would eat some veggies food with her, and we probably would become friends.....

Well, why have I write all this? Because I want to thank you! You were by my cyber-side when things were bad, and now that they look a little better I'm happy you're with me!

Ok, so, I'm going to go on blogging and to go on with my photography! I think I'll never leave this my little corner of internet!

Photo taken in Croatia this summer, nothing about this post

Poles and rain

Good morning and happy Friday!!
In the last post I told you that my photography teacher gave to us (his pupils) some homeworks: we had to take photos of rain and poles...
Yesterday evening at our class, after having seen my photos, our teacher told me "Well done, Beatrice, you really improve yourself!"
And my heart melted!

Here's my photos:








Well, what do you think?
I wish you all a happy weekend!
In this weeks I didn't take a lot of photos because it's raining a looooot!!!!

Rainy days

Gooood morning!!!
Happy Tuesday, and happy February!!!
This is one of the months I love most...because Mr and I have our anniversary, because of S.Valentine day, because is a very short month, because in this period hyacinths are blooming and their smell is amazing....

Here in Italy is a very wet period. It's raining. It has been raining cats and dogs since last Tuesday.
It's weird, a little bit scaring because of the rivers, and well, boring!
For my photography classes I have some homeworks: I have to take photos of the rain, and of the rods. It's so funny! Today I'm going to go out in the rain, to take some photos!

On Saturday morning I went to IKEA because I had to buy a towel, I was alone. And I spent, I think half an hour, in the gardening section!
I would have bought everything!!!! I only bought a pottery vase, and some seeds for some flowers (unfortunately I have to sow them in April/May!) I love gardening!!!

jammy and jelly
I love the picture above!!!
I found it in Emily's blog, jammy and jelly, isn't great?!? She's a girl that "draw" her life! :)
I'm in love with her blog!
