The things I do for love

If you don't recognize the title as a quote, then this post might not be for you. Still, if you want to read some positive thoughts of mine, here they are.
  • I love the way Jon Snow makes love.
  • I love the way Jaime Lannister tells how he became the Kingslayer.
  • I love the taste of the home-made chocolates I got from a friend.
  • I love Gounod's Ballet from Faust, and the fact that we're playing it.
  • I love the fact that we play checkers with my boyfriend (and I've won a few times whereas his best was a draw).
  • I love the fact that we speak Hindi. (Oh, the excitement of learning the secrets of a language!) I don't like Valyrian, though. It sounds like Romanian to me.
  • I love the taste of violets in sugar (original from France).
  • I love being 55 kilos again (strange though).
  • I love being the teacher who prepares for hours for a demo lesson, researching Harry Potter's family tree. (Big fat lie.)
  • I love the way one gets to know Anglo-Saxon sexual culture by watching HIMYM. (Search for "beaver" and "Old King Clancy.")
  • I love the abundance of books to read. 
This is what I got home from the library this time:
  • Nagy Bandó András: Öt hét öt - 575 haiku;
  • Elfriede Jelinek: A zongoratanárnő;
  • Agatha Christie: Five Little Piglets;
  • Melinda Nadj Abonji: Galambok röppennek föl.
Plus I'm reading Dalok a magasföldszintről by Simon Márton (borrowed from another bookworm).

P.S. There might not be anything original or interesting in these happiness posts, but you don't know how much I need these.
P.P.S. I think I'm not only getting older, but bolder and wiser too. (Or is it just the spring?)
