    I like that.
    I am curious to see how this American party I am going to will be.

    they are so optimistic. I've been talking to my colleagues over there and me being my sarcastic grumpy Jack Deeesque type character, they are just so positive about everything. Everything is awesome or will be amazing. Though my old boss though I am still with the company somehow gave me the most amazing over the top reference.

    The constant use of the term 'awesome' to mean 'Fine' in the US is extremely irritating. I lost track of the number of waiters who would interrupt one's meal in order to enquire if everything was 'good'. When one mumbled 'Fine, thanks' through a mouthful of food they would invariably respond 'Awesome!' as though you had paid them the greatest possible compliment.
