BRUTAL day in German Class
Todays German class was absolutely horrible.I didn't really understand what was going on.. and i have a sore throat.. meaning i am catching a cold. Gross.
anyways, Ben if you are reading this do not worry. Rotary is smart and places you somewhere you will really like. It just is not for everyone.
So after school today we (the dumb class) were discussing if we could all hang out after school. Most of the plans didn't work so me Alina and the crew were waiting for the train.. she was suppose to meet her gotti today ( godmother... its like.. a person who has gone on exchange recently that is close to your age so if you ever need anything they can help) but she ditched and i hopped on a train to St. Gallen with her and Amy!
it was a really cool feeling to be walking around shopping in Europe with 2 of my girlfriends by ourselves. I went to H&M and bought some skinny jeans and a scarf. Those are like 2 necessities here. If you don't own those things.. you are an outsider.
i was stoked about the jeans.. if you are a girl you will understand how HARD and FRUSTERATING it is to buy a pair of jeans that you like and fit good. But H&M did me real good.
Then we walked down the streets and Amy bought me ice cream ( I didn't have any change on me only my cards ) and it was the most amazing ice cream. They make the waffle right in front of you. I LOVE THIS COUNTRY.
just thinking about being here and all the exciting things ahead of me gives me butterflies.
I took the train home today all by myself.. which is not really a big deal.. but when you are in a foreign country and you have to figure out MASSIVE train stations by yourself.. it is something to be proud of. I made it home and felt so independent the entire time.
as much as i miss home. I am REALLY loving it here.
I will definitely be taking pictures of the dogs when i move into my new house. they are glory on 4 legs.
as for the italian shoes ... i don't really know if i will be able to handle myself. I know that i want a pair of boots from here. with some cool fringe dangling off of them or something.. but we will see. This girl on the train today had a KILLER purse. bright red with fringe all down it. It was so sweet.
The only thing left i need to buy here to fit in is some rockin sun glasses. slowly but surely i am becoming european. i can feel it!
Uncle Kenny, I actually want to watch this movie now.. just to see how bad it really is.
Isn't that weird? People always do shit like that. like "hey man smell this it is disgusting" or "ew taste this it tastes like shit" Why do people ALWAYS do it.. when they KNOW it is going to be gross. haha that is my question for the day.
Marlies is so nice. I told her about my sore throat last night and she has been making me peppermint tea every night.
We watch a lot of the Olympics.. but a lot of it is interviews with the Swiss athletes. for a while there i had no idea how Canada was doing medal wise... in fact.. i still don't know the exact number? does anyone know?
I have so much Canada pride over here. And I think everyone should. Canada is such a good Country.
the sheep were like right outside my house today. so i took some pics.. that is them up there the brown one was my favorite.
dad.. i debated stealing a sheep bell * see sheep with bell... but they ran away as soon as i got to close... bitches. ( the photo of there bums is them all running away)
I think that is all for now.
LOVE you mom&dad.

Take good care of yourself! A cold coming on? I would take Mollys' advice and get some RICOLA!...and definately buy a scarf!
JERRIE...THROAT TEA...Do they have that there? Traditional Medicinals.

So sorry you are homesick today but isn't that supposed to be expected. I hope that your cold gets better soon. My ankle is somewhat better today, thank heaven but still not good enough to walk on, its driving me a little nuts not to be able to get in the car and go out. I just love hearing about your adventures and look forward to daily reading your blogs. Take care of yourself and think good thoughts. Love you nana
