My parents migrated to Australia but only spoke German at home, so that’s what I learned. When I started school, they discovered their mistake, and I had to learn English. I remember my father saying for many years, “This is Australia, we speak English in this country”, my younger sister and I weren’t allowed to speak German at home, so I forgot a lot of it. In high school, we had to learn French or German, so it was natural to learn German. So German is both my first and my third language.

When I started school, about six years old.

I’m immune compromised. I wear an N95 mask whenever I go out. Sometimes to change things up, I’ll draw a smiley (or other) mouth on it with felt tip markers. Just need to work out how to disguise everything above the mask in a way that doesn’t look like a deliberate disguise.

It’s “its”, not “it’s”, unless you mean “it is”, in which case it is “it’s”.

If they make you take a polygraph test, insist on a tarot reading and a full personal horoscope as well. Between the three of them, there’s no way that they can’t find the truth!

Chemotherapy destroyed my immune system and my hearing. But the cancer didn’t kill me, so it’s better than the alternative.
