Zug
Means train in English. The whole class has been counting the days to the end for several weeks now. I phrased it like: I'm seeing the light in the end of the tunnel". And then adding: "but it's an express-train".
Which has now become a joke in class. Today I got an sms, saying the train is really close. To which I responded: yes, but it's coming at us at 250 km/h!
Hmmmm. Tomorrow is the last day. I really prefer Scarlett O'Haras view: tomorrow is another day. Far more promising and less threatening :)
