ich bin claireyface

Things from today:

• Shakira seems popular on German radio


• Queuing in Germany is a very different experience to queuing in Britain


• I found pictures of my colleague Sebastian on the website for his larp group - http://www.baerensteiner.de/


• I ate spicy chips today!


• We compared ways to mess around with someone's computer if they leave it unlocked. Voted the best: screencap their desktop, set it as the background, and remove their icons


• Being in Germany makes me appreciate just how much French I actually know


• What does bis mean? That word is everywhere.


• There's a sign on one road saying 'ich will die Supernanny'. I'm guessing the gentleman pictured is not declaring his intention to continue a career in childcare into his grave?


• I keep wanting to say dankuwel instead of dankeschern


• While I was in McDonalds, there was a little girl counting as high as she could in English - fifteen, sixteen, seventeen ... um ... eighteen, nineteen, twenty, twenty-eins, twenty-zwei ...
