angel

Most people who don´t know me that well think I must have been a little devil as a child, but that’s not true at all! I was so sweet that I even dressed up as an angel on Halloween. I put on my older sister´s communion dress and a white t-shirt that I drew a pair of wings onto; everyone laughed at this little angel on the night of witches and ghosts... Many years later, when we were living in Germany, we celebrated “Carnival” instead of Halloween, a softer event to which angels are very welcome. But I was a teenager by then so I preferred to go as a vampire, a business man or a punk. Maybe that’s why no-one here believes that I used to be as good as gold...
