Ok, so here are some things I have been wanting to blog about. I don't have time to discuss them today, because I have to go buy cookies and decent coffee beans for Kaffeestunde. (I don't know why I volunteered to organize the last "coffee and chit-chat in German for undergrads" session of the year - this one is 2 hours long instead of just one hour, and I am excruciatingly bad at making small talk... I always feel so awkward and stupid!)
(ok, to be honest, I was one item in to making this list, and then the power went out, so now it is several days later and I don't remember what it was that I was thinking about before).
Anyway, my list:
Stellit Licht - The Worst Movie I Have Ever Seen. Three hours of Mennonite marital angst interspersed with scenes of Pure Mennonite Porn. Plus an excitingly confusing plot twist at the end where the one lady we all thought was dead comes back to life, and the movie changes from a weird-and-boring drama to an utter farce. I want those three hours of my life back.
The Runner-up Worst Movie I Have Ever Seen: How Pancho Villa Invaded The US With A Mariachi Band. I swear this movie exists. I do not know what the actual title of it is, but we watched it in one of my high school history classes. The stereotypes and type-casting of the Latino/a characters is embarrassing and ridiculous. However, I think the movie was made in the 60s or 70s, so it is not completely surprising. The mariachi band is surprising and also ridiculous.
What is everyone else planning to bring for meals for camping? What should I plan to bring?
Why are possums so scary and gross? Who even knows? but I bet we could have an essay writing contest with everyone making up their best-guess answer. I get to be the judge, and the winner gets a dead possum, or maybe just some whiskey or hot cocoa.
