- My students being all adorable. Which makes you realise: the kids aren't actually the shitty part of this job at all.
- Buying a scarf with an "Oh La La" print and little metal hearts attached to the corners.
- ÜLKER Golden white chocolate with pistachios.
- A cat nap on the sofa. Frank missing band practice. Lying on the floor. My famous butt massage. Going to bed "early". Fresh sheets.
- When someone touches you in exactly the right way. You close your eyes and hide your face between their shoulder and their warm neck. Releasing the moment with a kiss. Of course you both had this idea at the same time.
- Amazing little coincidences - you think about a problem or a wish and *poum* an incredibly spot-on opportunity or website appears. Ha.
- Travel planning - Morocco, anyone?
- Receiving a huge box of Kérastase hair products as a gift. Just like that. Yes.
- Yep.
- Obvious Child I / Obvious Child II. Bonus: It features Gaby Hoffmann, Adam's weird sister Caroline from Girls .
- A nice day in a nice life.
- Mark Grist on Girls Who Read.
- Discovering that one of my students is an incredible acting talent (and looks pretty handsome with my fake glasses).
- The FIFA World Cup match Germany vs. Brazil - pwned. Also: actually winning the world cup! Schlaaand!
- Unlimited amounts of sushi after one of the hardest work weeks ever (burnout much?) - shopping and ice cream with Moni, a (very) late birthday present, painting a large, pink sign together.
- The new July Vegan Box. It included some seriously great vegan mango-coconut ice cream!
- Vöslauer Pink Grapefruit and Frappé with chocolate sauce.
- Playing Café International.
- Frank: "I've been invaded by crazy!"
- Drinking and singing with some of my colleagues on Franzi's rooftop terrace!
- Rupert Holmes's Pina Colada Song - yeah, just like last year?
- Christoph showing me a great hidden lake. There were only like 15 people and the water was great!
- Waiting 7 hours for Frank's promise to show more initiative (well, the waiting was not great, but the result counts).
- Getting a veggie burger and some fries when you're really really hungry.
- Bread with sunflower seeds. Some salad dressing or cream cheese on top. Most important thing: many tomato slices. Tomato bread was my favourite summer food as a child.
- Lying in bed, eating ice cream, playing Bubble Spinner and listening to Stephen Fry reading the seventh Harry Potter book.
- Frank and me are going to attend Lissy's wedding in September - really looking forward to that!
- VACATION! More than six weeks. Pure bliss! We're going to Crete and I'm also hoping I can find someone to come to France with me.
