there are way too many holidays.. too many excuses!

I eat way too much holidays. Thanksgiving is the worst. The best part is the leftovers. I am just weird like that. I like eating leftover turkey for a couple weeks.

We do the Easter egg hunting thing in the United States too. This year I get to experience it the first time with my boyfriend son, who just turned four. Until this year, he hasn't been old enough to understand the concept of finding the eggs, but I am sure thisy year, he and I both will have a blast. Even though his father and I are not married, I consider him my stepson. I am lived here with them for six months and he only sees his real mother once a week. So I am sort of taking on the mommy role. His father and I however, are really bad a procrastinating, so we must rush out today and get his Easter gift. In the States, children normally get a basket filled with fake grass, candy, and toys. We are going to get a basket that is already made from the store and then add more to it because those things, although expensive, never have enough candy in them! As for the cake thing, we do not bake anything special for the Easter holiday. Although, a lot of families have a big dinner like on Thanksgiving with ham or something of that nature. So basically including the church traditions, we celebrate the same way. Although, I must admit I had never heard of twigs in vases in trees thing. I does sound quite fun though! Thanks for sharing your countries traditions with us and I hope you Easter holiday is a great one!

...And I Love You... I'm just waiting for them to get here

Never apologize for not speaking a language perfectly. Odds are most of us know a little bit of a few languages. Like myself, for example I was born in the United States so my native language is English. However, I have studied Spanish for almost six years, so for the most part I can understand it quite well. Speaking it is a little more difficult. I know very little German and I am starting to learn basic Japanese. It is giving me a bit of trouble though. In that language you sometimes inflect your pronunciation at the end of a word and then other times do not. The inflection of the word can make the entire meaning change. So it is very difficult getting used to. Although, I have heard that it is in fact English that is the hardest language to learn. So who knows? Typically what I do when someone posts on SG and they are not fluent in English I try my best to communicate with them in their native language at all possible. I also do not hold it against them if their translations are not perfect. There is no such thing as perfection. When all else fails there are tons on internet translators on the internet to help if we are ever in need additional assistance. I hope you have a great day! Keep blogging. Never let a language barrier stop you!

I wish I could speak German! lol never hv to apologize for screwing up a foreign language if you're trying. I did a study abroad in Paris and for the first few weeks butchered it despite being able to read and write it It's just so hard sometimes. You do fine.

All systems are on!!

Thanks for crossing your fingers! Hope you have a ton of fun!
