Ciao
ragazziii e benvenuti al mio secondo post!
Right
before I start I want to tell you all guys that this
is something I would have never immagined.
You
might ask yourselves what the hell I’m talking about, right? Well,
I’m talking about this exact blog post on this exact blog page.
What’s
so special about it?
Besides
the fact that I wrote it (arrogance-mode:
off),
I see a glance of irony: back in the days when I went to school for
the Italian lessons we thought to write four different types of
texts: the essay, the formal e-mail, the informal e-mail and … the
blog post! Like in every different subject at school, there were
pupils who didn’t like the Italian lessons and were complaining
about the unnecessarity of learning how to write a blog post. The
main argument against the blog post was that many pupils didn’t
believe in its importance and meant that they wouldn’t be going to
write blog posts in their future life anyway.
(This
is the point at which the irony should kick in)
I,
as someone who liked the Italian-lessons, am now the one who will
proof all the others wrong!! xD
Anyway…
let’s focus on the well discussed blog post…
The
topic of today will show you the habits I got used to while living in
italy:
First
of all, what does the title mean and why is it written in
broken-washingmashine (or how some call it „German“)? Well
„Kontrolle“ means „controll“, „Planung“ means „planning“
and „Zwang“ means „compulsion“. So by combining the words
(which is pretty common in our language)
it means „compulsion of planning or controlling.
Back
in Austria I used to be someone who always wanted to organize, plan
and controll my surroundings with the best possible knowledge about
the whens, wheres and hows. I liked it when everything went as
planned, which it only did when I perfectly knew about every little
detail about every single minute from upcoming plans.
Somehow
as soon as I came here in Italy I felt like I got rid of that habit
due to the relaxed vibes everywhere… Planning for me looks like
this nowadays:
8pm
… 9pm … 10pm … „Hey guys, you want to go out tonight?“ …
11pm „Let's go!"
Surprisingly it works also without knowing every small detail and sometimes just letting go makes even more fun!
