Well, I'd like to start off by saying that I did not pack properly. At all. I was super-psyched that I got everything into one massive backpack and a pretty small carry-on, but I would say that I packed 75% business casual, since I figured I would be at work most of the time. Turns out work = super casual. So not only am I always overdressed, but I have to do laundry every few days because it is SO HOT and I only brought 2 non-work shirts and 1 pair of shorts. DUMMMMMB! I am seriously considering just chucking my clothes and starting from scratch ha. Buuuut, today it rained! And now the temperature is just lovely...around 25C. Now I've just got to find the sun, and it will be perfect :)
I have absolutely no idea what to do with myself now that the Weltmeisterschaft (World Cup) is over...I also desperately want to play soccer, but so far my only option is to play with a bunch of 5-year-olds on the roof, or a group of 10-year-old boys on a baseball diamond. Ew. Still looking...
In the meantime, I have discovered some new deliciousness that I used to think was gross. But Nutella is not gross....it's actually brilliant. And if you put it in a freezer that is broken and doesn't really freeze things (ie. is just a colder fridge), then it comes out kinda like a popsicle. I know, that probably sounds gross, but you should try it. Or just buy a Magnum, because those are brilliant too.
I guess I don't have much else to talk about right now. Nanoparticles have taken over my life. I need a hobby. I hate that octopus. That's about it! Ciao...

Hi Heather!
ReplyDeleteI have just caught up with you a bit here and wanted to say how much I've enjoyed your posts and photos. Sounds like an amazing summer. Two things: Dido and Aeneas - one of my favourite Purcell things, and I did perform in the chorus once. If you enjoyed it, and are into it, there is a terrific dance-enriched excerpt here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=z2SGb0x7Jqw. Interesting art direction, I thought!
And . . . since you missed fireworks (Booo-hooo!), a friend posted this recently and I thought it was pretty amazing (also contains a bunch of favourite music!) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MGqlNTXEhX0 I'm not sure of the religious significance of the fireworks,but they are pretty amazing. The other links on that page include similar type of pyrotechnics. Go wild!
Enjoy the rest of your fabulous summer!!
