For some reason I have very unoriginal nicknames for my brothers. I have two nicknames and they can be used interchangably on each of my brothers: Bruder (German for brother) and Buddy. Told ya...very original. I call Steven, my youngest brother, Buddy the most. It used to be Spud, like the potato...or slimer on the cartoon series of Ghost Buster back in the day, but he grew out of that one day and I had to find something new.
Anyways, I'm very exciting for this summer! Ever since I moved out to Boston I've been trying to get at least one of my three younger brothers to move out here, and finally, one of them is! Steven is coming to live with me for the summer and I couldn't be happier! If things work out, he may stay out here permanently while working full time and going to night school. My family is made up of some really fun people and I'm excited to have a sibling that will be able to come for an extended period of time and really see what New England is like and perhaps appreciate it the way I do. My apartment will turn into a language center. He's going to be teaching me Spanish (when I try to speak, it literally comes out half Spanish and half German so it's Germish) and I will be teaching him German...hmm...I may still end up speaking Germish, even with his help. Will have to think that one through. Anyways...here's to June...when Buddy arrives and my parents and my Grandma (who has never been to visit any of her grandkids in their respective states) come to visit. All in all, a great summer planned!
