And it is not just because today I handed in my last assignment for NWT (Naturwissenschaft und Technik), which is not exactly my favorite subject.
OHH No.
You see my lovely audience, yesterday I said to myself: "DENI ANNE POOPY-PANTIES TOBIN," (yes this in how I speak to myself in my head) I said,"Tomorrow is the fourth of July! What are you going to do? You can't just go to school like normal!". So I decided then and there that I was going to dress funny so that I looked like an awful stereotype of an American. But of course, that could not work out because I do not possess a super huge cowboy hat at the moment (and it was to late to order one on Amazon), nor do I have a Texan accent..... so that option was sadly extinguished. I asked my Host Family if they had any ideas and bless my luck, my host parents, thanks to both their consecutive exchanges in the United States, both just happen to have each a huge American Flag lying around collecting dust in the cellar (because what the hell is a German supposed to do with an American Flag anyway?).
So this morning, because I needed to do something obnoxious, I donned the flag happily about my shoulders, and Miss Captain America was born. Many did look funnily, and two of my three teachers asked me if the USA Women won yesterday or something, but of course my english teacher knew a second after he gave me a funny look that it was the 4th. On top of that my cape and Independence Day gave me the choice of what song we would sing in music class (to which my classmates muttered something along the lines of " I thought this was a day that celebrated Democracy?" and to which I have nothing to say except, do you celebrate your birthday with Democracy? XD), so of course I picked "Happy Ending by MIKA because, I mean.... that's EVERYONE's obvious Independence Day song choice! (sarcasm)
Anyway I hope you guys have a great 4th of July with Hot Dogs and Marshmallows and too many fireworks! And Happy 235th Birthday USA! (:
