Following dreams

Last night I was surfing the web, as ever, looking for nothing when I had the idea of take a look at the price of house rents in Milan.

Mr. Mind: hey! Dude... wake up! Instead to waste your time doing nothing what do you think about looking for houses in Milan?

Me: mmm...I don't know...

Mr. Mind: Come on man... it could be funny...

Me: well...OK let's get started.

-- After a while --

Me: hey take a look!

"For rent new beautiful flat near Bovisa Politecnico (10 minutes
walk). 45 mq for one/two students ideal for one year of Erasmus. 700
euro + maintenance fees"

Mr. M.: 700E? Are you crazy?

Me: but it's near to the University and you know I could share it with
Salvo.

Mr M.: let me think 45/2=22.5... it's an arse hole.

Me: oh sure! Give me the phone maybe Letizia will rent me the
Sforzesco Castle!! what do you expect?

Mr.M: you wanna let me leave here our HOME for what? a arse hole in one of the most pollute city of the country and for what?

Me: Following a dream?

Mr.M: Men don't live of dreams... I do it and that's why it could be a wonderful house... but keep in mind that less space == less privacy if you live with another person. don't be lazy... take a look at the next one...

Me: I am not LAZY. It's near the University so I won't spent too much time on public transports and I have more time to study.

Mr Mind:...

Me: take a look at that... I think we could effort this...

Mr Mind: Oh sure... we can...

Me: that's the one so...

Mr M.: but you haven't keep in regard the bus or train pass, haven't you?

Me: what?

Mr M.: hellooo! it's in Varese!

Me: ops... :) sorry it's late we have been looking house ads for two hours... be patient

Mr.M.: look at this instead...it's a room in a flat
80Mq (320E), Internet connection, 7Th flor with elevator

Me: it's a bit far... but near there is a subway station...yep it could be a good solution... and this too look

Mr.M.: the last one is perfect 4Km from the University!! this is the ONE!

Me: Perfect! We found it...now we miss only one thing...

Mr.M.: what?

Me: the DEGREE!

Mr.M: OK I guess it's time to go bed! Good Night
