Called a hero.

Hey there folks, 

so my schedule is back to normal and I have to confess that I can't wait to be back in Germany because hell I miss my workouts (especially my gym) and soccer. I've never thought that I've might miss soccer since I've quit in February (so over one year now) because I just didn't feel the passion anymore, but hell the passion is back and I am so sad that I can't play here because let's me real all the soccer clubs here suck so badly!! (No joke!)

Since the weather was surprisingly good this morning, my little S. and I went for an one hour walk just around the neighborhood and guess what I've found on the sidewalk? 

Yep, right. An brand new iPhone 5. 

Of course, I've tried to unlock the cell phone in order to contact someone from the contact book (maybe there would have been someone called Mom or Dad or Brother or something like that), but the cell phone had a look even though it was still on and fully charged. (So you know the 4 digit password you need for unlocking the phone was on). 

BUT due to the fact that there was a lovely picture of a girl (I guess she's about 8 years?) in the background of the phone I was quite sure I've saw her face before. Yep, I just walked passed by them like 10 minutes ago so I quickly turned around, walking into the opposite direction of my destination and guess who I found? YES! I've found the little girl with her older brother (I guess he was between 10 and 12 years old), searching for the phone. When I called them while waving with the phone, they immediately ran towards me, hugging me and thanking me for finding the phone (well I just made their day!)

Feeling like a real hero, let me just quote our small conversation!

Boy: "Thank you Ma'am, thank you so much for finding the phone!"

Me: "Oh don't mention it!"
Girl: "Thank you Ma'am, you just saved my day!"
Boy: "That was really kind of you Ma'am, thank you so much!"

Me: "My pleasure!"
Girl: "You are a really nice person!"
Boy: "She's a hero!"

Well, obviously they exaggerated a little bit, but I didn't mind at all. Who doesn't love to be called a hero and a really nice person? 

So after saying our farewells, which included one last hug, little S. who watched the whole scene with a smirk on her face (yeah really she smirked!), and I finally arrived at home, chilling for the rest of the day. 

After watching some of my shows (and eating horribly bad and unhealthy), I am sitting here, writing my little adventure of being a hero while feeling bad for eating all that crap and trying to convince myself that this was just an excuse, but well we'll see. 

I guess that's it!
Let's hope that there are going to be some pictures this week since the weather is supposed to be really lovely after Wednesday. 

Yours, 

       Anica (Hero)

P.S.: I know that I am kinda annoying with all the bad nutrition and fitness stuff, but I can't help it. I don't know how I should resist all the temptations surrounding me while my host mom is baking every single day (Like she just baked chocolate cupcakes with a soft chocolate center and chocolate topping - heaven?!). There is one Au Pair from my Miami vacation giving me hope because she just told me that when I am back in Germany all the pounds I might gained here are going to disappear really quick again, because I'm getting back on track there and I hope she's right! I really hope she is!
