Eye contact

Almost 22 years have passed since this photo was taken, in my university-era bedroom.
I had already graduated and I was doing things I truly enjoyed.
I was about to move out, even though nobody knew it (I was taking notes on my Palm about what to pack, but messiness was the norm, so no one got suspicious). I also had a slightly swollen gum, so I was smiling without showing my teeth, and I had mouthwash on the desk.
And that smile was one of mysterious satisfaction, anticipating what was about to happen soon.

Perhaps the most enigmatic Italian smile since the Mona Lisa.

Indoor snapshot from 15 May 2004: a young man (me) in a gray sweater and light blue shirt smiles at the camera (in an enigmatic way) while holding a Palm handheld device and stylus; behind him are an old Sony CRT TV and a green iMac, with a South Park poster on the wall.
