This is my second attempt of writing this entry. i already wrote the whole one yesterday on my iphone (yupp, theres an app for everything!!) but i failed horribly. after almost finishing it, i pressed something on my phone and it deleted everything. RAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH. i was mad! but anyways, i am big enough to get over it (yesyes, in my mind..). So here we go.
Kristen & I on our first schoolday
Highschool started on last wednesday and there is already a lot to tell. I was really nervous before i walked into the school! the first schoolday was kinda hard, i mean imagine u walk in a classroom and u dont know a single face, who would u sit next to, who would u talk to, and about what?? so that was one problem, another one was the school itsself. it confused me, i didnt know where my classes were and i always forgot how to get to my locker (das ding womer sini buecher ine tuet!). but its getting better, by know i mostly know where (today i failed and walked the wrong way but u know how that is, u dont want people to see that u walk the wrong way so i didnt turn around and carried my tons of books through the whole school..) my classes are and i find my locker! opening it is another story.. ^^ and highschool is also stricter than i expected. u cant use ur cellphonne anywhere at school, not even in the hallways, u never leave school during the schoolday (eat lunch there) and i think u would be in trouble if u did, and u get plus or minus points for everything u do and those points get converted in grades... and the weirdest thing: ur not allowed to put ur books into a bag which u take from class to class, no, u have to go to ur locker and put everything in there and carrie around everything that u need. but thats mostly quite a lot, too much for me to handle without a bag xD but people at school are really nice to me! its pretty cool to be an exchange student :) I get to know a lot of people :D i mean i still wander the hallways at school mostly alone (sounds dramatic) but by know, there are people which i recognize and i walk by some people and they say hi to me, awwwww thats so great. gotta enjoy the little things in life!!! :D
so im gonna tell u about my daily life :)
i get up at like 6o'clock and get ready for school, take hours to decide what to wear and stuff like that.
then i make my lunch (sandwich) i bring it everyday cause it saves a lot of money but mainly cause i dont wanna wait for hours to buy my food in the cafeteria.. i did that on the first day of school, and since im not the fastest kid in school, my place in the queue was quite far in the back and i almost died from starvation. but back to my daily life.
im at school at like 7.20, that leaves me 10 minutes to go to my locker, but all my stuff in there and take the books that i need. then i walk to my class.
1 hour: spanish. hehe beryll now i probably finally know that i gotta say de nada ;)
2 hour: english. and oh man, we just have 5 minutes time between the hours. and its so funny, im always the last one to get out of class.. as soon as the bell rings everybody jumps up and runs outta class. im like grabbing all my stuff together, try to handle it, it all falls on the floor, i say damn it, pick it up again and finally leave the empty classroom. funnnnnn ^^.
3 hour: applied chemistry
4 hour: US history.
and then i have lunch, where i first get my sandwich out of the locker (i already forgot to take it out of my locker once. isnt that the stupidest thing to do? i mean i go there because of my sandwich...) and then eat with a bunch of kids in the cafeteria :)
5 hour: choir
6 hour: geometry
7 hour: aerobics. man thats funny :) we watch an aerobics workout dvd and do the stuff the person in there does hahahahahahah but actually kinda hard!!
after that i have cheerleading :D
and when i finally get home im exhausted to death. and if im lucky i dont have to fight crickets.
thats my schoolday :)
last friday, i cheered at a football game again :) it was the first homegame so i was pretty excited and nervous. but im actually getting to really know all the cheers! u cant imagine what good feeling that is!!!!!!! aaaaaaaaand: i based in the pyramids AAAAAAAAAAAH :) (die luet wo die andere luet ufelupfet) daaaaaaamn i was sooooo proud! i still am :)
Thats what it looks like :)
Me, doing weird moves ^^ we always have a lot of fun :)
Hostsissy and me after the game!!
at home, kristen and i are playing wii dance a lot. i love it, even though im probably not the most gifted dancer that game has ever seen. ;) haha once the song viva las vegas came up and ur supposed to swing ur arm above ur head and i hit myself with the wii remote control. we were balling!!!!
yesterday, kristen, rebekah, and i went shopping at 12 oaks mall. i tell u, shopping lovers, its heaven there! i believed i could here the angels singing (leck bruch ich schoeni usdrueck) when i walked in there and all of a sudden was surrounded by hollister, love culture, pink, forever21, abercrombie, and a loooooot more stores to die for! its a huuuuuuuge mall! and i was quite successful ;) after that, we also went in some halloween stores because i was allways annoying my hostfamily with ideas for halloween costumes ^^ i just love to dress up. :) and hell yeah, it was sooooooo much fun, ask kristen about it ^^ but no, there will no pictures be showed ;)(actually i didnt even take some ^^ selfprotection, u know)
