....loooooooong time ago

No, you didn't. Where? In Budapest? I live in the south, though. We have a HUGE uni here with lots of faculties.

Some English? For goodness's sake you speak a very good English! You must know that! Also, concerning which country to go to, you can never know when you end up at a uni in the US if that's what you want.

that's not the opinion of my (former) english teacher.....he once told me that he is sure I would starve alone in an english speaking country.....he was a really nice guy...

mmm, these are good blueberries too!

don't trust the teacher people here are pretty good at figuring out what you say there are lots of people with broken English

mary, it was Budapest and Tokay...two weeks working at a green house and then traveling with visiting enterprises and tastings....

You would adapt quickly and nothing compares to being immersed in the language and culture to learn far more than from an ass of a teacher.

I didn't have too much trouble when I was with a family in Southbury for two weeks in 2005....but I still think he wouldn't have said it if it wasn't true...

no, play longer till you have callused fingertips... well it hurts in the beginning though....

Murphy's Horse Laws

There is no such thing as a sterile barn cat.
No one ever notices how you ride until you fall off.
The least useful horse in you barn will eat the most, require shoes every four weeks and need the vet at least once a month.
A horse's misbehavior will be in direct proportion to the number of people who are watching.
Your favorite tack always gets chewed on, and your new blanket gets torn.
Tack you hate will never wear out and blankets you hate cannot be destroyed.
Horses you hate cannot be sold and will out live you.
Clipper blades will become dull when your horse is half clipped.
If you approach within fifty feet of your barn in clean clothes, you will get dirty.
The number of horses you own will increase to the number of stalls in your barn.
Your barn will fall down without baling twine.
Hoof picks always run a way from home.
If you fall off, you will land on the site of your most recent injury.
If you are winning, then quit, becayse there is only one way to go. Down!

I play guitar hero left handed... and it's annoying cause we switch off, so I just end up playing right handed. so I'm not that good ;-)

How cruel of him, toz! He could have been a nice guy at all.

That's OK I play the real damn thing left hand and right handed.

ToZi, it wouldn´t be a problem at all, promised. You just need practics and not the easy way out with switching back to German.
And then there are still sign language and dictionaries

You know you are a horseperson when:

-You cluck to your car when you go up a hill.
-Your horse's hair is in better condition than your own.
-You refer to your car as "my portable tack room".
-You are exited when your friend tells you that there is a huge sale at the bridle shop, then you are dissapointed when you realize they mean the bridal shop.
-You have the vet's number but not your kid's pediatrician on your speed dial.
-Your spouse can track dirt into the house all they want, but God help them if they muddy up the tack room.
-Your house is a mess, but the barn is as neat as a pin.
-Your nice clothes are the ones without horse hair all over them.
-You have to go to your friend's wedding in riding clothes because you took too long at the barn.Only horsepeople would spend hundreds of dollors on a show for a 95 cent ribben

My son is anxiously awaiting his FIRST Wii! No spares here. Mom is just not ready for it. Maybe after school starts. Maybe after Thanksgiving. Maybe for Christmas ....
