(a bit of everything)
long long time ago that I blogged. Therefore, it is time again to report the good side of my Argentine life here.
are now counting my days in two months I'm already back on the plane for home. Therefore, try the last few weeks here to experience more intense and this is me beginning to understand what I'm going to miss everything in Germany. Starting with everyday situations on the road ...
other day I was, for example with a girlfriend at the Feria in Mataderos way, when I turned on once a small, corpulent gentleman in the way of old age. Because he do not speak for some reason could he communicated in sign language. He was first on my eyes, grabbed his heart and then theatrically feigned a heart attack ... Then he shook my hand, turned and walked away. I think that's a compliment I got a long way:)
Another, quite typical situation of our WG-life occurred last weekend. When Simon accidentally by Jonas jeans that hung over a chair, lifted her up, rolling down from Jonas' pocket of missing my long Labellolippenstift (from Germany! Therefore sought so hot) show ... When I then slightly crushed Jonas, see Staring quizzically, his only comment: "This is one of the moments that feel like sinking in the ground would!"
As one of my colleagues is on sick leave for a long time, I am responsible at the time the group of "Pekes," the little ones with. The majority of children has only recently begun in La Paloma, 
so much for them is still new and exciting. For me it's great to see crazy how different the children of the group. All are between 4 and 6 years old, but of course come from different family backgrounds. For example, a 4-year-old boy has been going a year in the nursery and from a semi-structured family problems is all the colors and animals keep them apart, while another child the same age, which never in any been social institution, is still referred to as a tiger and bird also has difficulty in remembering the difference for a long time. From such situations, they quickly learn where the children are gaps and what you can work with them. This is fun! In addition, the children just very very sweet and I realize how quickly a bond can be built to them. Sure, the cute factor is age dependent rather high! Especially with a 4-year-old girl, we call them Moni, I am currently experiencing a heartbreaking situation after another. Recently she has received, for example, in the shower foam in the eye and began to cry, of course, terrible. So she was in despair at the dripping, rubbing his helpless eyes, so the shampoo but only got deeper into the eye. Because they absolutely do not let them talk with them, I eventually her head back down and her face flushed from the foam. When finally everything was gone, she dared, but still not to open his eyes again, so she reached blindly out of the shower, grabbed the first piece of fabric that she got hold of and blew on her nose from crying brash my sweater off. Give thanks one a 4-year-old so the dramatic rescue of her eyesight ;-) But actually I like the daily half-hour with the children in the bathroom a lot. They are always beautiful, tame moments of cuddly towel factories that attract tights and bow tie practice. The other day I watched as the small Moni was chewing something while she was playing with the other kids tickers. When I asked her what she did because there in the mouth, she spat at once a puzzle piece. Since I got my little one on her lap and told her that this is not anything goes. She did, after all, that you can not eat pieces of the puzzle and that one can not simply put things in their mouths. She was, after all, not a baby, also the puzzle missing now a part. While I was speaking with her, her eyes filled with tears and she was my sheer bad Some not even look in the face. The really tore me at the moment most of the heart!
I then got in his arms, told her that I not be angry with her and that she should just take care not to eat again puzzle. 
Then we played another round, "Hoppe hoppe Reiter" (now can even monitor the text in German (sing along!)) And then everything was fine again ... Oh God, I can see themselves, these stories seem like trivial compared to my old posts, but such things somehow even now characterize my time here is what I have just given my remaining weeks of it running always confident. These moments in La Paloma I want to miss for anything in the world! Only in the same week, I visited a colleague at home. Since she and her husband now expecting their first child, they are currently busy renovating the room, what they wanted to show me love. The visit to her house was kind of impressive to me. A very sweet little casita on one floor with a total of 3 rooms. Everything was very clean and lovely ... really nice and cozy! On the way home but I compared the living situation of my colleague and her family, which I would call a typical Argentine middle class, with the housing situation in which I grew up ... We as a 4-strong "middle class family" from Germany a 4-story row house, garden, car, bike etc. had .. My colleague, however, has this year have to give up their summer to renovate the children can perhaps 10m ².
So, that's it for now. This weekend I'm going for three days with a few girls to Córdoba, the second largest city in Argentina. Then I will report again.
Greetings from the Buenos Aires autumn, your
Merle
