So apparently American culture really is taking over the world. I have gotten used to seeing mcdonalds and burger kings and subways all over the place. I have gotten used to the Yankees hats that everyone thinks just means NYC. I have laughed at English words that have become part of the German vocabulary: “hast du das online gefunden?” It’s become old hat now. I was not prepared, however, today, in my 9th grade class, when, while working in a group project, one of my students, in the midst of a convo in German, dropped the epic fail. Really. As in: “hast dud as gesehen? Was er gemacht hat war ne total epic fail.” My jaw actually dropped before I cracked up mid-class. I had to ask the kid where he had heard that, and whether people here said that now. Apparently so. I cannot WAIT to here the epic fail bomb dropped in other conversations with my friends. I will make fun of them mercilessly.
In other news, happy almost Halloween!! (how has October flown by so quickly?!?!?! AAAHH!! Aidan is here, doing well, and still apt hunting. I’m back at school this week, and I’ll start my new schedule next week. Yay!
Hope you’re all doin good!
