"Ich brauche Dich...zu mir das Wasser geben"

Again, been a long time since I've written in here, sorry. It's been about a week, ne? It's life, man. Life and life only.
DEBORAAHHH.

Right now (as it, right now, downstairs underneath me) is my host mom's birthday party. I was down there for a bit, but then Hans-Peter told me to take Holly on a walk, so I did, and when I came back, they were all doing a toast in the kitchen. I have to go through the kitchen to put the leash back in the laundry room, so I stood awkwardly in the doorway while all these people I don't know (or if am lucky, have met once or twice) are raising their glasses and giving me confused sideways glances.

So that was fun.

I'm really not sure what I should do. If I join, it'll be a lot of "oooh, so you're the aupair? Where do you come from? Do you like it here?" and then they'll make some good-natured joke that I won't quite understand but will be expected to participate in so I'll laugh awkwardly and hope the conversation changes to something else.

I brought a really sexy shirt at H&M yesterday. It's button up. And sea blue. And I really want a tie or a vest to wear with it, but shit's EXPENSIVE. So I shall wait until next month, when I can continue to slowly add to my wardrobe.

Life is weird. And lame. And good.
For many reasons.

Also there's the chance that Leonie will still want to put on this random skit about a music competition between Hannah Montanah and Vanessa Hudgens and some other singer that we've been kind of practicing this week for the party. I don't really know how to say "dude, it's your mom's party, shouldn't it maybe be a litte more relevant?". But maybe she'll get busy playing and forget about it. Haha. I was gonna write a song, but the only lyrics I could come up with were:

"Hier ist dein Geburtstag lied,
wir singen es nur für dich."
and then
"Gerne feiern wir auf dir,
so viel spaß und trink dein Bier!"

And couldn't think of anything else.
I should probably go down there, since I think the family that we hung with on vacation a lot is here and I really like them, and also everybody's spersed out a bit, so it'll be easier to blend in. Haha.

Also, bis später.
