It was the first day of the last week of our super intensive A2.2 course and I am starting B1 in almost 1 week. I can’t wait to put it on my CV because I know it’ll increase my chances of finding work (something I have been desperately waiting for).

A2.2 has been tough as well as rewarding. We have learned lots of grammar and have also learned lots of basic conversational words and some really cool proverbs.

“Na Ja!”, “Ja und wie”, and “keine Ahnung” are some new words that I really like because of the diverse nature of these words.

Oh and something for my friends who know this english proverb “Over my dead body“, well in German you can also use the same expression by saying “Nur über meine Leiche“. I specially asked my teacher for this during a conversation exercise when I wanted to tell my friend (who was trying to convince me to not go to poetry slam and instead go for a dance) that we’ll go dancing only over my dead body because “ain’t nobody got energy for dancing“ (sweet brown style).
