Italian Invasion

Okay, I have to admit it to you guys that I have this weird attraction to dirty words. Yeah, my bad...but for some reason, whenever I need to express myself I need to use a strong word which in my dictionary means dirty words. I really don't know what or why but I feel so much relieved after those words came out of my mouth. But funny thing was, this happened to me just recently. Seriously, I used to hate the 'F' word normally but after this super serious conversation with a dear friend who opened my eyes on how this word was actually a good word as it helps us emphasized our feeling about something or someone. Fucking awesome!
But of course, as people here in this country has so many rules about how to speak appropriately, we have got to be careful with every word that came from our mouth. the 'F' word was still considered as something rude and indecent. Then of course, as a decent girl, I tried to avoid this word as much as I could, even though always failed. I mean, come on, how do you fully express yourself when you can not emphasize it with any strong word whatsoever? Totally fail!
Then something happened. As some of you guys knew already, am opening this new shop at a spot called Fashion Point right in the center of Seminyak district. The place owns by this cool Italian hippie which I hang with lately. Between him, his girlfriend, and his nephew, I feel like outsider sometime, especially when they talk their language. Completely lost. But, as someone who has this special talent (and never ashamed to admit it) in linguistic, I spot this 'ma vaffanculo' thing within an instant. First, of course I have got no idea whatsoever the meaning of those words, not at all. Over my curiosity, I asked. And when I found out what the meaning was, I was like, hell yeah! No wonder I caught the word like in an instant. Hah!
Okay, let me tell you why did I say that. First of all, using the 'F' word was so obvious lately. Many people started to feel intimidated with it. I had someone threat to report me and some other guys who were happily using the word during this game called 'Fan Battle' on Facebook. I was like WTF? That was too much for me, really. So yeah, that is why I was so flipping happy to found those words. Just so I can express myself a little bit more open without intimidating others. Ma vaffanculo!! Yee-hah!!
