Ab Initio

These are the sorts of conversations we have in Ab Initio German class-

Sourabh: Was ist eine "staatsbürgerin"?
Herr M: Take a guess
Sourabh: State... burger?
Herr M: ... Yes. With extra cheese.

It actually means female citizen. If you were curious.

Me: HABEN SIE KEIN SLURPIES IN DER SCHWEIZ?

We (meaning my parents, of course) got good press in 20 minuten again today. We did last week for our vegetable garden, and the other day my parents planted a tree for 9/11. The Swiss population probably thinks we were intense gardeners at home.
My brother gave me a cactus, and I couldn't even take care of that.

Love always,
Clara
