I was born in Naples in September many years ago. In Italy, schools start in that month and during that period. So, it seems I was born under the sign of "lo studio matto e disperatissimo", as Giacomo Leopardi wrote. I attended compulsory school, having a nurse (Suor Margherita) as teacher. I'll never forget her. As for high school, I attended a professional school where girls were an optional!. Even though my educational past didn't shine for fun, outside the school I grow up as a normal guy, with a lot of crazy friends, enjoying the most of common things that teenegers share each other!

If I had to classify periods of my (short) life as geological eras, I would distinguish a border line that breaks my life up in two main blocks: the start of university. Last years were very hard, each exam was so demanding! Fortunately, job friendship with Marcello Cinque (may be, one of my best friends) allowed me to overcome each mountain as it was a little step. During this educational period, someone of us learned how good was the other, resulting in a special mutual understanding.We worked hard during the university years, got graduated together and started the PhD experience together again. Are we going to get apart one day? Only future will tell!
