Time for a little lesson in German history

[manikineko]

Today is a national holiday in my country: day of German unity. Right now they are broadcasting a huge concert on MTV, which takes place in Berlin. 18 years ago on November, 9th the Berlin wall fell and one year later on October, 3rd Germany was united. Unfortunately we still have many problems and people from former GDR and federal republic are anything but best friends. I am most grateful for this day because I wouldn´t be able to study in this beautiful Bavarian town if Germany hadn´t be united 17 years ago. I don´t understand all of these discussions about "Ossis" (people from former GDR) and "Wessis" (people from Federal Republic of Germany), I am happy to live here and I love my friends and I don´t care where they are from. I think my generation finally overcomes all of these prejudices but it still depends on how they were brought up.

Enough of this lesson ^_~  Happy Birthday to MoriEiji, my cousin and Zukki, I hope you all had a great day!
