The road is long...
oh hi!so. On tuesday and wednesday i got rather sick with lame ovary stuff. but all is well. no worries. I did miss 2 days of school. This week is that special project week... so what that means is the older class gets to go to either england or france to work on.. english or french.. and the other classes have a week to kill.. so they make you do these lame projects. all the other classes get to do cool stuff like cooking or something.. and we got stuck with economy stuff.. which would MAYBE be interesting.. if i could understand anything. anyways you go on these excursions to help learn about said project. so we went to a trinkwasser place... which turns dirty water into Drinking water. and then the project my group had to do was about fish. and since i missed the 2 days of school i missed out on that excursion. so anyways. the whole point being. when i got to school today we had all of the project finished before lunch began. And for some retarded reason they cannot let students go home early.. which really frustrates me. I do miss that freedom from lci.. at least we got to do what ever we wanted.. not to mention when i was not there for one class when i was sick they immediately called here asking where i was.. ok wow off track. so we go to Migros and eat and bla bla bla. spent half of the afternoon sleeping in the library. Then the woman teacher who looks more like a student.. she is nice though. but she told us we had to do something. so they started to type out what they were going to say tomorrow when we present them. and i duhno.. every time she comes around i feel like i have to be doing something. and not that exchange kids are suppose to do absolutely nothing. i get that we are to be involved.. but it is my second week. i cant understand sweet fuck all. so what am i suppose to do!. Then finally we headed home and as we were walking they bumped into some friends.. who thought my purse was Sehr Schon... (very beautiful) so that was a good thing. they all groaned when i said it was from Canada ( a sad groan not an ew groan ) and i was like.. uhmm you live squished between paris and italy.. and you cant find a much more beautiful much more expensive purse?
must be the yellow.
So tonight the 2 classes which only has one boy are having a sleep over at the school. Of course it is optional.. but i just was not up for it. so i am home now writing this. and tomorrow there is a BBQ. I was just informed that we are suppose to bring our own foods for the grill. Oh well.
Also tomorrow i have to speak at this presentation in german. It is only a couple sentances.. but.
Ok Normally. talking in front of a crowd. no big deal. i love drama, i love being on stage. should not be a problem at all. but i am actually quite nervous. I am speaking in another language.. which is scary in itself.. to a bunch of people that will probably snicker and laugh at my weird accent or how i am saying the words wrong. so i am intimidated.
But i think about when i talk to anyone that does not have english as there mother tongue and how when they talk to me and make mistakes.. i dont care... i am more or less impressed that i can make out what they are trying to say.
but then again.. this is different.. this is a crowd of teenagers.
but they are all girls minus 1.
ugh. what ever. i am just going to suck it up and do it. and i am going to be DAMN proud of myself.
Aley told me this weekend there is a street party in weinfelden that we are going to.. she said it is not that amazing of one.. but i am still stoked. that will be an experience.
ok... i am now going to try to download a long ass video for you guys to watch
the first one is of audrey and Samuel. this was the last day of German class on our scavenger hunt... and Marianna and Carmen.. were like running the entire day.. so of course... we eventually got ditched.

Hi:Finally a blog from you-sorry to hear that you have been under the weather with that female thing. Loved the videos of Samuel and the gal from the U.S., the buildings are so unique. Again what an amazing experience for you Jerrie. I am certain your talk will go well and I like your attitude about the whole experience. Take care of yourself, love you a bunch. Nana .
Hi Sweety...Really cool footage...looks like a blast, wondering the swiss streets with a couple of friends (you'll have fond memories of that for-ever). Maybe...if you have the time...you could write more often...and include lots of pictures, and film clips. I just love to see it and read it, it's almost like being there with you. Maybe next blob update you could take pictures of migros inside and out, and if you have the courage...a small clip of the parrot (the bastard). Take care Sweety, and stay warm....LOVE YOU, MISS YOU.. Dad
I too, loved the videos! Samuel looks like he is alot of fun! Running around the streets of Zurich! What an adventure!
You will do great with your 2 sentence speech! They will LOVE you!
Keeping you close in my heart always!

Hi Jerrie, yesterday we cast our youth play production of Snow White here in Yorkton...and I thought back to you in "Beyond Recess" so, so, SO long ago. That was my first Play Production of that nature...and in this one...there is a character named Whiney. Just like yours was. I can't wait to tell her that you played a character of that name before. She'll think it's so cool. I am thinking of you and love you and love when you update..
