Ich bin Hausfrau und ich lerne Deutsch.

Housewife

It has begun! My German course that is. After so many weeks of struggling to get into the bloody thing this morning was my first class. It's great! I totally love it (as the Deutsches would say).

There are a total of 4 of us in the group. All females. Anna from Poland, Michaela from Italy, and Lina from Colombia... and Polina from Australia. It's funny - all of them look quite young (as in my age), but Anna has a 6 year old son, and Lina has four (4!) kids... the eldest is 19!... man, I don't know how old she is, but she doesn't look whatever it might be. Michaela is the youngest - she's doing her last year of medicine and is doing a semester learning german here. And I am just bumming around and am kinda a housefrau (well I did buy bread today farken!).

So far we did very basic stuff - names, where we are from, what do we do, who are our husbands (only poor hMichaela is not married) what they do... I kinda feel like I'm in a home-making class, but it's awesome. The teacher is a very strict looking German lady, who speaks very clearly and very slowly and ties her hair in an incredibly tight ponytail with a purple shiny band... it's all good.

Thus, by my 600th hour I should be able to schprech Deutsch gut! Wish me luck!
