Wir konnten nicht zum Oktoberfest nach München fliegen, also haben wir uns ein bisschen Oktoberfest in der Deutschen Schule selbst gemacht!
I mog di = Ich mag dich. I like you.
O'zapft is! = Es ist angezapft. The keg has been tapped.
Schee dost do bist= Schön, dass du da bist. Good to see you. 💕
Our 15th school year is coming to an end and I hope for fifteen more. We have been at two locations and worked with two dozen German teachers over the years, coming from Hungary, Romania, Switzerland, Germany, of course, the former Yugoslavia, and different parts of the US. All of them have been speaking German on a native speaker level. They each had their own unique way of teaching, which proved that there is not a single right way, but many valid methods. There are different teaching methods and there are endless reasons for learning German: you may want to connect with Germans because you admire German engineering but German "Gemütlichkeit" is just as good a reason or finally getting to know your transatlantic relatives! Please spread the word in order to make the next 15 years as exciting and fulfilling for the entire Rochester German School community as the last!

Deutsche Küche ist mehr als Eisbein und Sauerkraut. Give it a try if you don't feel like cooking! I did, and I liked it.

When I stepped outside this morning, my first thought was "the weather feels like Ostfriesland". Schietwetter! ❤️
Schietwetter (crappy weather - or worse) as the Northern German would say 🌧
Remedy: Raingear and a brisk walk ☔️
Or better yet, eyes closed, dreaming of brighter days😎

We did not know that Techno was still 'a thing', but now it's recognized by UNESCO as a cultural heritage in Berlin!
