3·1 year agoLol I’m like the exact opposite, if someone isn’t smiling at me I’m thinking “Did I do something wrong?” but of course I know that not everyone is smiling at you unfortunately

1·1 year agoYea it definitely doesn’t sound as bad as many other Germans but I don’t have the American sound down to the nuances so you could definitely tell. Idk why but I think it’s quite hard to get the nuance if you haven’t been raised with the language, it sucks if you don’t sound 100% authentic, I hope it will come with time.
But you really have to study each tone down to its core including its cultural context to get it perfectly. Imma try to do that though for sure

2·1 year agoThe good thing is I somehow just can’t gain weight but I also don’t eat too much junk food and somewhat keep the balance.
It often frustrates me that we only have McDonald’s, Burger King, Subway and KFC here. I always wanted to try stuff like Taco Bell, Wendys, Jack in the Box and In n out Burger.
I prolly spent my whole childhood at McDonald’s (we ate there at least 4 times a week) and I always wished we had other chains. But that was the closest I could get to an American environment as a kid.

2·1 year agoWhat do you mean by accent? I can only do an American accent (maybe a little British if I try hard)

6·1 year agoTrue. I just don’t get why so many Americans can be so confident. I hope I can keep up with that. Cause my parents ruined my confidence with all the trauma they introduced to me. But maybe it would help just going out of the country of my parents
Oh man I completely forgot the cookie butter. I used to eat this at my grandma’s house as a child all the time and I loved it! (added that to the post)
Never had the Cookies and cream spreads but it looks very good, especially the marshmallow fluff I want to try.
