Late Easter Post

Since I have to think in English (and I have to do it fast), all my posts will be in English, at least until I get to my purpose. Some people may be happy, some won't. Who cares, anyway? :))

I have already started this with my last post, but I'm considering this a tradition from now on.

Speaking of traditions... Has anyone noticed that the Easter has lost its spiritual meaning? I mean... People think only about food, parties, trips and some other superficial stuff. Beside this, the expressions "Hristos a inviat" and the answer "Adevarat a inviat" have become almost as commonly used as "Hello". Just the words, no other meaning.

I strongly believe that Romanian is the most inexpressive language I have ever heard. For example, to stay connected to the theme of the post: isn't kind of stupid the double meaning of the expression "Paste fericit"? Everyone thinks of it as a joke, not thinking about the fact that no one is able to tell me the correct name of the holiday.

I spent the Easter out of this horrible town, at the countryside, playing Puzzle Pirates. This is My Pirate Page. Pleeeease click on those links, even if you don't care. :D

Alrighty then. Bye-bye now! :)

Since Englisch describes so the best, I guess you're on the right way. It's so well reading your thoughts exatly as they are, so that everyone should understand their meaning. (or at least everyone should be speaking English. It's a common sense matter you know).
Regarding your post, I must say I agree with you. This one was the most unppleasat Easter of my life.
Because of the loss of it's spiritual meaning on one hand, as for personal losses as well. Sad, isn't it ?
Btw, happy earthquake :) ? how was it?
oh shit, Mother Death has missed me again :(

I meant, "since english describes you the best".
And please, accept my apologies for my english is not th half as good as yours.

Well, yes, it's sad...

I'm actually at the country side, so the earthquake caught me reading. At first, I didn't know what was happening and why was the bed shaking. =)) I understood when I heard the pictures moving on the wall. =))

You stop talking like that, young man. You do not even know what you're saying. "Mother Death" has missed ME several times this weekend, only milimetres away, and I really learned the tough way to be contempt with my life every single second, no matter what I complain about. The result: I am more hippie than ever before. =))

You really don't have to apologize. German compensates. :))

And you can post how many times you want to, I don't mind. I cannot see why anyone would mind. :)

LIKE oh my freakin' GOD!!!u're too polite!!! and Krieger's worse!!! I felt as I was stuck in a bad british movie! The point of writing in E is letting go of the "wood language" so "please do feel free to use more natural words like FUCK or SHIT when you feel the urge"!!!....hope I didn't piss u off...or get u're ass banned

Amy said...

Heeeey, I like those British movies. The romance of that era is lost...

Is there something wrong with being polite nowadays? And I really do not fell the urge to use those words. What's the point, anyway? :))

Do not worry, probably you are the annoyed one here. =)) I know I am too ... romantic and lady-like for your taste. =))
