Tonight I had my first salsa class of my entire life! And, guys… I’m not young any more 🙂
Actually, if I want to be honest, this was the first dance lesson ever in my life!

Impressions? Well… I had fun, even if at some point I was a bit embarrassed for my complete incapacity to improve quickly!

My main problem with dancing is that… I am a computer scientist!
Nooooo… I don’t mean that I stink as a good nerd computer scientist, and nobody wants to dance with me!
I mean that I am completely logic in what I do! I apply a fixed sequence of rules and steps to obtain a result! More or less like if you are drawing a flow-chart!

Dancing is not like this at all!
I was thinking that a good way could be to memorize a sequence of things to do and try to replicate over and over.

But salsa (and probably dancing in general) is not like this either! While dancing you should improvise the sequences, even if you keep doing the same steps.

So, poor me, there is not a simple an stable “dance algorithm” simply because if there was such a thing, probably inside there is a piece of code like
“next_step = random(possible_steps)”

Anyway… I’ll finish these lessons in any case… There hasn’t been a single algorithm I didn’t implemented successfully in my life 🙂

I’ll keep you updated!

September 11 has been the first wedding anniversary for me and my wife!
What can I say? That it has gone in a blink!
Many things have happened: who knows us can tell that it has been a tough year for us! Probably not the ideal year that a just married couple would like to spend!
But for sure the love that we have for each other has been our soundtrack in all the moments we have lived this year!

Thanks, Francesca, for being my wife!

Here we are… again!

This time I’ll not forget to update my website: I promise!

Ok.. I can already hear some “liar” surrounding me and probably it’s true: I always forget to update my blog/pages/whatever
I created in the past and the reason is that what I was writing was not interesting! (and I don’t want to consider how difficult was to deal with the old blog app)

So I decided to do a couple of simple things:

  1. Install wordpress and removing the ugly content manager I was using (BTW I love wordpress)
  2. Applying a nice and clean theme
  3. Using my poor English to write the content of this website
  4. and … more than everything: I decided to not be ambitious!
Maybe you (my dear 3 readers) are wondering the meaning of the forth point, so here is my explanation!
what I don’t want to do is to think that a lot of people will follow me. There are too meny interesting websites around to think that mine deserves attention!
So my idea is that I’ll use this website as a view of my life trough internet. So I’ll post about my life, my job, my interests!
We’ll se what happens!
Se you soon!
