Auf Wiedersehen

I bet you didn’t know that I’m fluent in German did you?  Well… when I was about to go in to high school I didn’t want to go to the one that I was zoned for so I decided to try and get in to the school that I wanted to go to.  In order to do that I had to take a class that was not offered at my high school in order to go to the other one.  Bam.  German!  So I took German all through high school and then in college as well (why change midstream I thought?).  Although I’m here to tell you that German is doing me no good at all here in Southern California, well not that it did me any good in Nashville, TN either, in hindsight it wasn’t the best decision of helpful languages to learn but variety is the spice of life.  Now I’m learning Spanish with my ipod and some CD’s that I bought at Costco, I think it’s called Learn Spanish in 2 minutes or something silly like that.

Anyway…. I’m saying Auf Widersehen, which is Goodbye for all you non German knowers ;) , or people who have never seen the Sound of Music!  I’ll be heading out of town on Tuesday attending the One Light Workshop in Phoenix, AZ.  Words cannot express how excited I am about it.  I’ll be blogging from the workshop (if I have time).

You know you want to run and watch The Sound of Music don’t you ;) ?  Here’s So Long Farewell for your viewing pleasure (although my favorite is Edelweiss!)

I think I developed a crush on Christopher Plummer after hearing him sing this… Is that weird?

    Hi Angela, i’m not fluent in English….. i’m sorry, so here the rest in German, hihi.
    Somit hat es doch einen Sinn, zumindest für mich, dass du Deutsch kannst :))
    Ich bin ein riesiger Fan von dir und finde deine Bilder einfach wunderschön!
    Weißt du, dass man hier in Deutschland “Sound of Music” nicht kennt!!
    Ich wünsche dir ganz viel Spass und Inspiration auf deinem Workshop und beneide dich sehr!
    Liebe Grüße aus Bayern (bei München) Barbara
