My German A2.1 class

Today was the last day of class! Yipee! We didn’t do much today except play some fun games, in German, of course. Several people didn’t show up, so it was a small class. Too bad for them because we had a lot of fun. It was sad to see some people go. You get to know them well over the course of a month or two! But most of the people will continue on. I found out that I did really well on my test, almost perfect (only 1 wrong) on the written exam, but I got -4 points for the speaking part, which was expected. I got a “sehr gut” (the highest) grade for the course. Yipee! Sadly, I don’t think it’s very hard to get that grade.

After class, Michael and I went to Sushi Sano (of course) and had lunch. I’m still not sick of that place!

I wanted to take the boys to the playground today, but the weather was bad, so we just stayed at home. I feel so bad sometimes that they’re cooped up so much.

We got some good news today though. Since all this construction has been going on right outside our apartment, our neighbors asked for a rent reduction (25%) and got it! They even got “back pay” from March and April too! Woo hoo! So she’s going to give me the letter that she sent so that we can get it too. I think what happens is that our building management gets the “lost” money from the construction company, so they don’t really lose out. It’s kind of good that our landlords are a company and not a person so that they don’t take it personally if something like this comes up. We should be able to also get the reduction no problem too. That would be awesome! But it also kind of sucks that it’s so loud from 7am - 8pm. I would rather have the quiet I think. We’ll see…

I stayed up super late finishing the hat for the boys. It took forever, but I think I did pretty good. I did a fairly good seam, better than I usually do and I learned how to crochet! It was a lot of fun! There are some things that I could’ve done better, so next time.
