Clean Horsehair Mattress

Teenagers


I'll be old? Maybe. You realize you're no longer a youngster when you observe the teens and find them really stupid. You know very well was to be one too, but not at the time you realize that, but now everything is clear, obvious.
Perhaps, in fact, do not need a degree to feel a vague sense of embarrassment when you bards from head to toe to deal with the 30 inches of snow fell in Milan, in front of you, look at two little girls with lots of colorful quilt d ' goose designer, slim jeans and ankle boots canvas. Yes, yes, Scarpettini of canvas Converse All Star, the kind that were used 20 years ago, but in the summer. Not now, now bring you absolutely all year and if they are soaked, drenched in mud and water ice are even more cool. The girls walk in front of me at the exit of metro di Piazza Udine. I loro zainetti Eastpack sono ricamati di ciondolini a forma di peluche e scritte fosforecenti. Leggo chiaramente “I Love Tiziano Ferro” su uno dei due e capisco che quella ragazzina sta vivendo un momento molto difficile.
Si dirigono verso i giardinetti ascoltando musica da un solo iPod, un auricolare a testa. Ma come cazzo fanno?
Vicino alle panchine semisepolte dalla neve ci sono due ragazzi. Riconoscono le due pischelle e vanno loro incontro. Mentre si avvicinano noto i brufoli sul viso che tradiscono i loro sedici anni. Sono teenager anche loro, ma non indossano scarpe di tela, loro no. Loro hanno scarponcini di gomma che proteggono bene i piedi dal freddo e bomber pesanti super imbottiti. Dieci centimetri sotto l'elastico known of the jackets that hold belts on, barely, pants four sizes too large. Greet the girls continue together.
Now all four are from the back and I can not help but smile. Snow. Does a cold. Girls jeans soaked to the ankle, and continue to listen to the iPod. The arrogant young men walking beside them with the butts to the wind and underwear completely off. They walk with that posture a bit 'strange, legs apart, who has shit on me and would like to avoid contamination. Maybe today will not go to school. Maybe because the radiators do not work. Perhaps you seek a place to get together and smoke, but it would be much simpler if they also pat calde e i piedi asciutti?
Certo che a volte mi sento davvero vecchio... perĂ² poi penso a chi ascolta Tiziano Ferro e allora sono proprio contento di esserlo.
