Hola amigos!
Recently back some funny things happened, beginning with the power outage, we had the last week. Last Thursday, unfortunately, the main power generator, complete, Flores (my neighborhood) is unusual Floresta and Caballito. I climbed by 18 clock of the bus and stood on a nearly extinct Rivadavia, the main street on which you usually move out of sheer traffic and people can not.
That was some change creepy feeling, as it also slowly began to get dark. I went shopping with me in Cuadra still a few things. In the bakery, the bread sold by candlelight, our greengrocer who else is always open to 22 clock had already closed and the Fiambreria ('ne kind of cheese and sausage shop) I have been advised me not alone rumzutreiben on the street, but as soon as possible to go home. One really had the feeling to move into a ghost town ... 
In the restaurants the tables were lit with candles and Supermarkets have signs taped on the windows "sold out candles with. While I have therefore used the current-free evening to the light of my grand, battery-operated head lamp (made fun of me by the way ALWAYS was!) Baked apple pie, have used my roommate Simon the opportunity and beautified the deserted streets with his "wall art" . After 24 hours without power at some point the main power generator repair, with the result that the middle of the night (approximately by 3 clock in the morning) there was suddenly festive lighting in our apartment. Well, now we have electricity again, but does not our internet for three days ... Such is life. On Tuesday A technician will come from the phone company and remove the Internet. Let's see if the is really - we are excited ...
I also had my last week expected to last choir performance with the choir of the economic faculty of the University of Buenos Aires, where I singing along since October last year. It was a concert in the really gorgeous renovated main hall of the "Casa de la Cultura". I even had a little audience that could finally make some photos from the choir, as three friends come to sit and watch Voluntärinnen are. That was beautiful! Afterwards, we then held to be a major, original Swabian noodles meal with us in the flat ... really delicious! Furthermore, we have recently honored the birthday gift from a friend and went there with a group of girls to the opera. Where Puccini's "Madame Butterfly" was a wonderfully dramatic, heart-wrenching love story in Italian. And once again won the recognition habeich: Less a movie, go for it more in the opera and the theater!
La Paloma is still going great! For two weeks I have a new colleague with whom I lead the group together children of the middle. The collaboration is really great, the activities are much more organized and sophisticated, as in the work with my old colleagues. Izwischen has the World Cup in La Paloma catchment received. I made last week a giant game board with thousands of small flags, which now hangs in the Comedor (this is the name of the main dining room) and ensures proper conversation. But I realize now that real friendship with the Argentines when it comes to football ends. Yesterday I said to some guys: "Hey, if I cheer for Argentina tomorrow, then you must also press on Sunday for Germany the thumb." Then I was hurled phrases such as "Näää, not for the Germans!" The Germans can not reasonably play football anyway! " My colleague and I take the World Cup now as an opportunity to work with the children a bit about the different countries. We will treat all trivial things: where is Südarfika? What do the people from there? If the 'n-reduced' n rich country? etc. .. On these issues I'm really looking forward units. Yesterday was my pregnant colleague, whose baby "Joaquin" will be called, and said excitedly to me, "Merle, Merle, my husband told me that the coach of the German national team and Joaquin is with first name!" It took a while before I understood that she was talking about Joachim Loew and her then I could explain the misunderstanding
;-) Oh yes, there are now better than the weeks counted and trying to do so many things to see to make, buy as possible. And I realize now that I will not make all that I've made up my mind. Well see, well as if I had to again come back to Argentina. Now I just spend
but the rainy Saturday afternoon in order to sit with my laptop in my favorite bar, drinking cappuccino and enjoy properly operating WiFi. Consequently, you can show the way, also new photos and admire above all, two small videos, the small parts of our WG-life.
Best wishes to hopefully warmer Germany,
your Merle
