Rank 5: In the evening – right after work – you automatically say: “I will go home now!” (Happens nearly every working day.)
Rank 4: The guy at the front desk says: “You don’t have to tell me your room number! I still know your name and your room number.” (Happened last week when I brought my postcards to the front desk.)
Rank 3: You are spoiled with the never-ending opening hours of the malls, outlet stores and super markets. (Happened last week during my late night shopping.)
Rank 2: You suddenly hear a “Hey Tobi, how are you?” when you enter the local Starbucks. You get your Starbucks coffee for free and your name is written on the coffee cup. (Happened last Sunday.)
Rank 1: You miss your girlfriend, your family, your friends and your cat so much. (Every single day.)

Hi Tobias, we can understand your suffering from homesickness, especially because of important persons in your life.
Nevertheless tomorrow will be your 25th birthday. Congratulation. May all your dreams come true. We wish you all the best. Have a nice day.
Gudrun, Arne, Aenne and Arvid+Yaska.

>Rank 1: You miss your family, your friends,
>your cat and your girlfriend so much.
I do not know your girlfriend, but I know that other women would insist on a different ranking in this sentence ;)

Rene, don’t rub it in! ;) The whole post should be a rising: first the ranking of the reasons and at the end the most important one! You are the second one, who advised me of that, so I just change the order now. *g*
