All I've been feeling lately is exhaustion and've been very numb to the world. I'm not a huge fan of the overtime schaufen. But I guess I will be when it's payday. Oh, by the way, I'm starting understand a fair bit of plautdietsch. Crazy girls. I'll be paying my cheque home and cruising main before you know it. Anyway, I should get some nice sleep one night this week.
WAS THAT A GERMAN WORD GENEVIEVE!!! ah yes i see by the next line of your blog that it was...WHAT THE HECK!!! beers to celebrate! (just jokes, beer tastes yucky)

Hey Plautdietsch is 'low german' right? K I just stumbled across your diary. I have relatives in winkler. Or they used to live there. I think they're away mostly at school. anyhooo i grew up in a low german fam and have just met another menno and she told me Plautdietch (or sumfin similiar) wuz low german. We've been remembering all the stuff like "rollkucken' and "perogies" and all that jazz. It seems every where I go low german stuff has been popping up. Anyhoo sowwy for the ramble. God bless. Keep rawkin. Stay Happy.

Holly: what the...? beer is awesome! I'll take you for one sometime...
Keny: it's suzie, eva, and mary :P, and it hasn't been taught so much as forced upon me, when I'm the only person in a room of six or so that doesn't speak it, you kinda catch on a little.
Anon: thanks for stopping by. if you come back who're your relatives and who are there parents? (/mennonite game) plautdietsch is hilarious.

i tried the mennonite game today, and julia laughed at me. oh the plautdietsch - i love it! and the wedding invites, well, let's just say mine have been piling up since september....and so have the amount of times i am asked the "question". "no, i'm not dating anyone, and yes, i know i'm nice and you're surprised" almost as fun as all the weddings!
