Ich habe einen Kopweh

Directly translated this means "I have a headache." However, my German teacher told us that it can also mean “I have a hangover!” (Not that I do) But today was probably the coolest German course ever. It started out normally; we were learning how to ask, "What did you have for breakfast this morning?" The usual stuff. This naturally led us to talking about food and the different names. Once we got to grapes, however, we had the best time ever. The name for grapes is Weintrauben, or more accurately wine grapes. Naturally, this lead to a conversation about wine. And when talking about wine you need to learn how to order some in a restaurant. Just teaching us this wasn't enough for out teacher, she said "What is the point if you don't get some practice?" This of course then became the organization of a trip to a Buschenshank, the 'not a restaurant' which we will be going to next Wednesday! Of course not everyone likes wine so for the entire rest of the class we learned the different names of all the drinks we could ever want to order here in Austria!

Best Class Ever!!!
