The Octagon Bar - Having Ourselves A Merry Freaking Christmas...

[U2democrat]

Yeah...unfortunately german isn't exactly a "sexy" language when spoken...

 

[DaveC]

Enjoy your dinner, April!

Yeha, I took a month of German in first year and ended up dropping it because I just straight-up didn't enjoy it, and therefore I was skipping classes and falling woefully behind.

But I love my Italian class, and it's such a beautiful language and I have an amazing prof so it's really quite fun to learn.

Of course, it doesn't hurt that she's an absolute fox. That's incentive to go to class, to be sure.

I took german for 2 years in middle school, hated it, took latin fresh-soph years in high school, hated it, went back to german junior year, had the best teacher ever and fell in love with the language.

Of course, it doesn't hurt that he was an absolute fox and I got to travel through europe with him

 

[DaveC]

Europe...wow, I'm jealous.

Where in Europe did you go??

Berlin (took the U-2 to the Zoo Station ), stopped in Dresden on the way to Prague, back to Munich, through Innsbruck, Austria and Liechtenstein to Luzern, Switzerland, spent a day in Zurich and took the night train for the last 2 days in Paris.

Of course Live8 happened right after we had left Berlin and right before we went to Paris...so we watched it on TV in Luzern.

U2 is my german teacher's favorite band too so he was excited about showing me U2 "landmarks" around Berlin. The Zoo Station, the statue from the Stay video, if you look at the Achtung album sleeve under "Ultraviolet," I was at that building in the picture.

That was the juiciest, tastiest, most tender, meatiest steak I've ever eaten.

Just enjoying my favourite meal, steak, with my favourite drink, scotch

 

[U2democrat]

ahhhhh

 

[A_Wanderer]

Well maybe not at midday,

 

[LarryMullen's POPAngel]

Italian food.

I should start cooking my gnocchi again. I know how to cook but just never do.

 

[U2democrat]

Laziness

 

[LarryMullen's POPAngel]

Is that just a random endorsement, Laura?

 

[U2democrat]

 

[DaveC]

Woohoo! A brawl in the Canada-Norway game at the World Junior Hockey tournament!!

 

[LarryMullen's POPAngel]

Hockey fights.

I haven't watched nearly enough hockey this year.

Dave, now that it appears that we're the only two in the bar, did I ever tell you you're my hero? You are just the most awesome 19 year old from Halifax I know (actually, you're the ONLY 19 year old from Halifax I know, but I digress). So sweet, looks killer in a pair of sunglasses, and so thoughtful and kind to others that I can't believe it's even true. You blow me away each and everyday with the posts you make here on Interference. Absolute works of art. And you even know your way around airports you've never even stepped foot in before, haha.

I could go on and on, but I'd be here ALL night.








PS - You're quite the kisser, too

[LarryMullen's POPAngel]

Well, how would you feel if they let us watch, Laura?

 

[U2democrat]

Well I get him first. Then Dave can do what he wants.

 

[U2democrat]

How fitting..."Stories for Boys" just came on my CD player

 

[A_Wanderer]

It is like a Greek Epic, I have to make it last for the longest time, or else
