snow and stuff :]

As promised, here is the roundup of pictures from the holidays...

First... CHRISTMAS :D lots of cute cousins (I am the oldest in my generation, you see, so there are many kiddies running around and asking me for things at any family occasion. Not to mention *shudder* lots of Miley Cyrus music *shudder*)

5 TOP CHRISTMAS PRESSIES :]

1) ipod touch 32g :D This was the big cheese for me. I've been wanting one for ages.
2) A giraffe. Well, sort of. my grandpa adopted one at the zoo for me. what a surprise that was.
3) THE CURE GREATEST HITS in my stocking (yessss!) and the ministry if sound 'electronic 80s' compilation from Loopy.
4) two books called "You know you're a child of the 80s when..." from Phoebe (and yes I am aware that I'm not, technically, a child of the 80s...) and the sartorialist's book in my stocking :]
5) a vintage baseball jacket from bee. Well it wasn't actually a present. I just stuck it my suitcase and she didn't notice. hehehe :3


WHAT TO BUY WITH YOUR XMAS ITUNES VOUCHERS
Out Of the Blue - Julian Casablancas (now that sounds really soppy and taylor-swift-y, mostly because his name is casablancas but it's actually pretty good.)
Letting Go - Team Waterpolo
Haven't we all made this face when opening something?? :p

my amazing handmade wrapping paper :o

GERMANY (wooooo)
a snowball in action. This is a favourite pic of mine :]

the little town of Heidelburg ...and bee :]

OHMYGAWD. Did anyone else watch the dr. who christmas special?? OMGOMGOMGOMG. The master is so fucking evillll (lol at the part where hes wearing a dress :3) and the time lords cant come back. NOO. Then the doctor wont be the only one!! And they looked a little leery. Not like the doctor at all.
wow. I'm such a nerd. no, seriously. :L
Me eating my favourite German word (hmhmhmh that sounded better in my head) a FRIKKADELLE :] and what a word it is!

llamaaaaaahhhkhdks

if you have any more awesome German words (or any language for that matter) drop me a comment :]

3 EPIC THINGS I DID IN GERMANY :D
1) Visited a store where everything is made of gummy bears (well, not everything, but there's a lot of shit made of gummy bears)
2) wore three pairs of socks at the same time o_o
3) Stole some cool posters off the street. Except when my friend told me I could be arrested. Then I stopped.

I think that may just have been a record-breaking amount of photos.
So I won't bore you with a huge chunk of text at the end.
happy holidays bloginos :]

Glad you had such a great Christmas! Your cousins are so adorable haha. And Santa obviously lurvesss you :]

Germany looks like lots of fun too! Another awesome German word is kleidershrank, means wardrobe. But since I don't speak German, I just use it when I can't think of the word I really want! Like, "Mom, where did I put that, um.. kleidershrank? You know what I mean mom, THE KLEIDERSHRANK!"

Have an awesome day x

WOW. That town looks so cuuteee!! I've never been to Germany, but I did German in Year Seven Eight and Nine... fave word is still gegenubervon. Which means 'opposite' as in 'I live opposite the bakery... I live gegenubervon the bakery' hahahaha, German is such an awesome language :)

lovvee the wrapping paper. I saw one addressed to 'Spence'. Would he be a Spencer? I have only met one Spencer, my Dad. Hahah we call him DJ Spence.

Wow, that was long and random!

Most of Germany sucks, I hate it most of the time but my mum is German so I had to move over here in 2008. Nothing better than London though, my father still lives and works there.
Heidelberg is quite nice though, at least that's what everybody tells me. Haven't had a chance to visit yet. Is it worth the trip?

Actually, I love the German word for gummy bear, "Gummibärchen". Such a cute nickname for a girl, if she's got some sense of humour and everyone's drunk :-)
