Summer Sun Boredom

Most of my days look like this:

Thats why there's not much to tell. The last few weeks I had to say good bye to the last exchange students and am pretty alone in SF now.

Laura and Fiona came back from their road trip last week and we went to Shannon Arms for one last TGIT.

The next day we wanted to go to the Warriors Parade in Oakland, as they won the NBA Finals against Cleveland. Laura didn't feel good and she needed to pack, her flight was going the next day, so it was just Fiona and me. We met downtown and took the BART to Oakland. The hardcore fans had already been gathering in the streets since 5 in the morning to get the best places. I'm still trying to find out how many people exactly were watching the parade but all the Internet told me was that it had been a few hundred thousand, which is absolutely realistic. Five minutes after we got a good place to watch the parade, the bus with Stephen Curry, his family and the trophy drove by and after some hysterical screaming (not from us) and not even one minute, everything was over and Fiona and I took the BART back home.

Confetti and Sunshine.

Haley was in San Francisco the last few weekends and we made some trips to either flee from the foggy and cold San Francisco weather

or to enjoy the few sunny days in Dolores Park.

They don't sell usual truffles in Dolores Park, these are hand made with nuts,
fruits and marihuana of course

Or we went discovering my new neighborhood. Doing this, I found out that a friend of mine lives only a few houses away from me.

Devils Teeth Baking Company - great hipster breakfast place

On Thursday I met Ashni who is on USA-Tour right now for one last time. She's gonna fly back to Australia soon. We went to a Mexican restaurant in the West Portal, which painted my name on its chairs, I was very pleased.

Food.

Yesterday Supreme Court ruled the right for same-sex marriage in the whole US and it is Pride Week right now and Pride Parade this weekend there's a good reason to party.  (As if there would ever be no reason to party.)

They ran up the rainbow flag all over the city

Even the cars in the Uber app have rainbows behind them

Yesterday I had an appointment at the Saint Francis Memorial Hospital for an internship for the next semester and now I'm just waiting for my papers and the introduction process, including vaccinations and a one-day seminar on the security rules in the hospital. I'm really excited as I never worked in a hospital or even spend more than a few hours in it.
By September, I'll start working in the Rally Family Visitation Services which accompanies and supervises meetings between divorced parents and their children, ruled by the court. I think it's going to be a lot of paper work, but it is going to be very interesting.

Until the beginning of the internship and semester it seems like I'm going to spend some more days in my cozy bed. But at least I'm not totally alone.
